I wasn't going to make a full-assed thread, but then I saw all the cool stats in their GDT. However I didn't want to steal it as is because the stats there are barely readable, so I reformatted them a bit.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

maybe we'll win so convincingly that JT will wanna just stay in town.

 

[KirkOut]

Wow I can’t help but feel Upshall and his 54 assists through 15 games is being wasted on the 4th line. We don’t need Tavares just move Upshall up with Vlad

 

[Evocable Manager]

It'd be nice if more than 1 line could score for us.

 

[Klank Loves You]

It'd be nice if more than 1 line could score for us.

I'd be ok with the first line getting 4 goals. Either way.

 

[Meatball]

If John Tavares played for the Blues, what number do you think he'd wear?

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Gotta win this one for Ari

Ari's impact on the Blues was beyond measure

Vladi was with her yesterday

 

[Reality Czech]

Sad to hear the news about Ari, but she'll remain and inspiration to Blues fans and players for years to come.

I was going to comment on Halak, it's pretty funny how he never starts games against the Blues. I seem to recall hearing that he requested to sit out shortly after we initially traded him because it would be too hard for him to play against his old teammates. Seems like he's been the backup every game since. Always liked the guy overall but what a head case.

*Now I see that he got rung up for 5 goals last night. Also, he's only allowed fewer than 3 goals in 1 of his 9 starts. Ouch.

We can still play against him if we manage to score 4 or 5 times in the first 10 minutes.

 

[Blanick]

Working tonight. Win this one for Ari tonight boys.

not sure if you could call what the Blues do once they get a 3+ goal lead "playing"

 

[TruBlu]

I'll be at the game tonight. LGB!

 

[Vladdy the Impaler]

Gotta win this one for Ari

Vladi was with her yesterday

Gotdamn I'm in tears right now watching the video on the Blues website showing her trip with the team. Such a young soul who had so much life still in her and she shared that with everyone else. You could just see the Blues players' faces light up whenever they saw her.

I just hope she's in a better and more peaceful place now.

 

[Evocable Manager]

I'm expecting Vladdy to destroy it tonight in honor of Ari.

Sickens me some of the stuff that can happen to people

 

[simon IC]

Won't be here for this one. God Bless Ari and her family. Go Blues.

 

[542365]

Vladi going nuts tonight would not surprise me one bit. Go Blues, let's keep this thing going.

 

[fishsandwichpatrol]

Good teams that get blown out usually bounce back hard. Gotta be on our toes tonight and not think we'll have it easy at home against a fatigued team.

 

[The Note]

I’d expect a slow start against a pissed off Isles squad. Think Vlad for sure gets one tonight.

 

[mw2noobbuster]

Fight off the storm early and counter-attack hard.

 

[tomin]

Payarko nets his first 5v5 tonight in decades. Obviously if I state it on here it must come true.
Should/hope to be a good game, would really like to see them play 3rd period Devils road hockey sooner than later on a regular basis.

oh and hey Dougie Weight!

Hey! I mean your username stopped Parayko's stick from breaking anymore so I'm hoping this post does the trick.

 

[frostyflo]

You can’t win every game and I don’t have a good feeling about this game but win it for Ari ffs!

 

[Mike Liut]

Heavy hearts may affect the Blues tonight. Sad news

 

[Stealth JD]

Two fourth lines tonight? Cool.
