[rumrokh]

I’m here again, sorry for not posting. I have shown up, just haven’t had the time to write my reports.

I’ll try and get those out pronto.

 

[Blanick]

I think Foley is well liked by players and coaches. Whenever I look his way and he is not doing a drill he has whoever he is near smiling and laughing.

 

[ChuckLefley]

Agreed, Foley has definitely made some friends...and he looks like he could be a San Antonio-St. Louis shuttle guy.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Want to head over there now. Anything going on?

 

[ChuckLefley]

Second group is on the ice doing drills, then the goalies.

 

[ChuckLefley]

Kostin has a serious wrist shot. Fast and heavy.

 

[Mike Liut]

On NHL Radio, Panger mentioned Thomas had a high ankle sprain that he played through the memorial cup and the last 2 OHL playoff rounds on.

Those damn things can take nearly a year to heal if you stretched out the ligaments bad enough.

No clue how bad it was. Considering how long he played on it, it couldn't have been that bad

Real hard to say the severity of it. They do suck though.

 

[The Note in MI]

Anybody have the wherewithal to record some video of the scrimmage? I’m sick that the team didn’t make any effort to stream this year.

 

[Blanick]

I think this one may be getting streamed. Someone with Blues credentials just set up a really nice tripod and camera next to where I am sitting. Dead center ice.

One thing I love about Fitzpatrick in the puck playing goalie drill is he gets reset in his stance every time before going to play the puck. Opilka and Hofer just act as it’s only a drill.

Little nitpicking on my part. But that’s always how I was coached, get in your stance between reps on the drills like that.

Fitz is definitely a level above both Hofer and Opilka.

Agreed. He exudes confidence too.

 

[Blanick]

Scrimmage is about to start they are definitely steaming it today. Not sure where to find the link though. Would check Blues twitter and website.

 

[Blanick]

Packed house for the scrimmage.

 

[Blanick]

McGing weaves through the defense and puts it on Reinkes stick in the slot. Opilka makes initial save but Reinke puts home the rebound. 1 to 0 blue

 

[Blanick]

Fitz with a nice save on Kostin. Matched by Opilka with a nice save on Bokk.

 

[Blanick]

Great keep in by Tucker leads to a give and go with Dunne. Tucker scores. 2 to 0 blue.

 

[rumrokh]

Streaming on youtube.

 

[Chief Steele]

stream is up on Blues Twitter..

 

[mk80]

Interesting watching Kostin vs Kyrou when they’re on the ice against each other

 

[Chief Steele]

Streaming on youtube.

You beat me too it!

 

[Blanick]

Toropchenko springs Kostin on the breakaway. Stop by Hofer.

 

[Blanick]

Krag forehand backhand on the breakaway. Cuts lead in half.
