Half-Assed GDT: blu@leef

[Falco Lombardi]

That's the first first period this year the Blues have not allowed a goal in.

 

[FrozenJagrt]

We'll take one Mitch Marner please.

Sure, for Marner

Could I interest you in one William Nylander? Haha

 

[ScratchCatFever]

WTF is wrong with Tarasenko? His release is definitely not the same. I don't think teams view him as much of a threat anymore. Open to trade partners for the right package

 

[Ranksu]

Leafs fan here. Can you guys give us Parayko? Please?

Parayko and Maroon for a signed Nylander.

 

[Novacain]

For as mediocre as our offense was, we just hold the Maple Leafs to 4 shots in a period.

 

[Bluesnatic27]

Dear god, Pietrangelo just went ballistic in that last minute.

He falls to block a shot and is the immediately going up ice to create an odd-man rush. I didn’t even see him get up, but he had the puck at the middle line.

 

[BleedBlue14]

Parayko and Maroon for a signed Nylander.

Sure with Paraykos same contract.

 

[TruBlu]

If Yeo isn't gone within 5 games our season might be toast.

I don't disagree. In 5 games we'll be in a position where we will need to win 2/3 of all remaining games just to have a shot at getting in if current trends continue. I think DA wants to keep Yeo, but he's in a tough spot. A lot of money was spent on the roster this year. Failing to get to the playoffs might drop us out of spend to cap territory next year, and that doesn't bode well for a gm either.

 

[DoubleK81]

This team has no idea how to pass.

Why is Maroon just twirling around in the high slot on the powerplay? Can we be done with this whole hometown boy experiment already?

 

[Robb_K]

Not a good period, - but not a bad one. Too bad Tarasenko's shot didn't go in. The Blues still look as if they don't have normal energy. I hope a few wins and/or a lot of close games don't fool Blues' brass into keeping Yeo for an extended period. Something is very wrong with this team. It isn't just the level of talent of the players.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Edmundson also had a strong period.

 

[Veneficus]

Good push there at the end. Tarasenko not looking good, that O'Reilly pass was perfect.

 

[The Note]

I’m not sure what I hate more; this team or me for caring.

 

[BlueOil]

Maroon is bad But Sammy Blais has made some god awful passes tonight also lol the ole tied for first

legit not sure how blais is still in this line up, zero contribution most shifts

 

[trevorftw]

I may be in the minority, but that was at least ONE of the best periods I think I've seen the blues play this year. Patience is huge. They'll get more odd man breaks. They just need to bury those.

 

[Novacain]

I will say while that wasn't our best overall period, I'd say with confidence it was the best our defensemen have looked all year.

 

[Ranksu]

Best period by long time. Now is good time for go to sleep.

 

[Mike Liut]

Could I interest you in one William Nylander? Haha

We’ll give you Bouwmeester and Gunnarson for Nylander

 

[542365]

Over/under 27.5 goals for Tarasenko this year? I’m taking the under.

I have to admit that my ire at seeing him there was somewhat tempered by how flat out funny it was watching him "play" the position.

 

[DoubleK81]

I think alot of you talking about Tarasenkos shot are forgetting that he's coming off surgery on that shoulder. I would bet that its not 100% yet.

We've now entered the "gallows humor" era of Blues fandom.

 

[Lakas]

Sometimes it's better to quit while you're ahead

 

[Novacain]

I didn't forget that, but if he isn't sitting out time to heal it that shoulder might never get back to that point again, and if it doesn't, then.... woof.
