[Stupendous Yappi]

I kind of expect a letdown game.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

That 3rd period last night was a disaster.

I expect a loss tonight.

This team slips into coast mode to easily.

 

[Mike Liut]

The Preds will be hungrier imo. They are fighting for the playoffs. I’m not feeling too good about this one.

 

[Blueston]

Preds are good test today. I think we win.

 

[AVictoryDive]

The good old pessimism seems to be strong. Both teams played yesterday so we’ll see.

 

[HighNote]

I have a bad feeling about this one.

Blues win 2-1, 4 goals a game streak ends.

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

sorry if it seems pessimistic, but all good things must eventually come to an end. the winning streak and 4 goals/game have been incredible.
Duschene just seems to have our number

guessing Mikkola back in with the Leddy situation. hope he shows well. and guessing Binny in as well, so hopefully he keeps up like his last coupla games

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

also NOT looking forward to watching the Preds go full soccer mode with all the diving and flailing around on the ice.. AND the officials rewarding them for it..ugh

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

looks like Rosen in instead of Mikkola

 

[TheDizee]

Binner gonna play today most likely so the Blues have to keep scoring.

Hope the treat this like a playoff game.

 

[Punished ROR]

I put a bet on Josi at +300 for Norris. Ideal day for me would be a Blues victory, let's say 11-10, with Josi grabbing a point in all Preds' goals.

 

[542365]

Has the makings of an ugly one with both teams having played yesterday. Betting the over on Blues games is the safest bet in hockey. Hopefully the Blues end up on the right side of this 6-3 game.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

looks like Rosen in instead of Mikkola

Pretty telling how they feel about Mikkola right now. Dude hit a wall hard

 

[Xerloris]

Binny will perform great today.

 

[CaliforniaBlues310]

We’re 10-0-1 in our last 11 games, and people still find a way to be super pessimistic. Sure, we may lose today, but good grief actually enjoy something for once.

 

[mk80]

Don't look now folks but we do have a new streak of scoring 6 goals in our last two games now

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

Pretty telling how they feel about Mikkola right now. Dude hit a wall hard

yeah, but I still think he'll be a keeper

 

[Stupendous Yappi]

We’re 10-0-1 in our last 11 games, and people still find a way to be super pessimistic. Sure, we may lose today, but good grief actually enjoy something for once.

I expect a let-down game....but who said I won't enjoy watching Blues hockey?

It wasn’t just specifically at you, just a broad statement cuz there were several people like “yeah we’re gonna lose” both yesterday and today.

Also, we usually seem to get up against the Preds, so I expect them to keep it going today.

 

[Blueston]

looks like Rosen in instead of Mikkola

Where do you see that!

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

Where do you see that!

reported in the GDT in the asylum. lemme ask where that came from. that poster is usually very on top of things tho
