wait what Hakanpaa is somehow in the NHL???

Sorta. He plays for Ducks.

Actually, it's worse than that.
He was one of the Ducks better D men last night(only 16:37 in ice time but he recorded 1 shot, 1 blocked shot, 3 hits and came out of the game even in+/-).

 

[Celtic Note]

I thought Jani looked good.

 

[DangledUpinBlues]

second verse, same as the first.

Go Blues. I want Thomas and Hoffman to have big games. Get that line going and we have something cooking.

 

[stl76]

I don't get why we keep trying to play Krug with Parayko. Run Parayko with Scandella and give them the tough defensive matchups. Let Faulk help cover for Krug defensively and give them the easier matchups. It's not rocket surgery!

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

We figured out how to win two in a row, now let's figure out how to win a series

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

I think Husso probably needs the start here, despite what Pang said about running Binnington again. Do we have an NHL back-up or not?

Would rather not have to face Gibson again, but they’ll just have to score on him anyway. I expect a good game from him.

Agreed. If you can’t trust him against Anaheim on the second night of a back to back, when CAN you trust him?

 

[mw2noobbuster]

I wish I could be confident in the team with Husso in net. Quite frankly he doesn't look good at all in there. I hope to be proven wrong.

 

[BlueDream]

I agree that Husso needs to get the nod tonight. We have to give him some games to try and get him going and boost his confidence.

Ducks broadcast was last night telling Bortuzzo will play tonight. Confirmed yet?

Blues broadcast said he was on trip but would not be playing tonight. I don't trust anyone but Chief.

 

[Xerloris]

Husso should not play tonight. We should trade Husso to Montreal for their backup @50% retained.

Tho Allen plays much better in totally different team, different defensive system. Now he can use his athleticism and aggressive play vs play as big as possible, play position and be good at rebound control.

Well I have said this over several years now.

 

[Captain Creampuff]

Husso needs to play tonight. He’s not gonna magically get better by not playing any games.

 

[Nederlander]

According to Lou Korac, Husso is playing tonight, otherwise same line up as last night.

 

[Ranksu]

I call you Husso. Shutout

 

[Ranksu]

This is Husso's first game in NHL level when game starts.

Long way we have come to get here.

I thought Husso started a game already.

 

[Ranksu]

I thought Husso started a game already.

No. He came in and played 20min or 30min.

 

[mw2noobbuster]

No

He did against LA.
