lol Parayko

 

[The Note]

This officiating crew is a mess

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Lol the refs having to do the linesmen's job as well

 

[BlueKnight]

These officials are a hot mess right now

 

[Ranksu]

This north south hawayii hockey isn't us. We need long possession in the boards.

I don't like a one bit this game has gone.

 

[Borderbluesfan]

Sometimes Petro still makes me go WTF?? When he’s playing defense in our zone!!!

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Right now, I badly want one of those trademark Blues forecheck and grind you to death shifts. The ones where O'Reilly and Perron just seem to hold the puck forever.

 

[Dbrownss]

That is one thing I love about Faulk. He plays 1 on 1s very physical

 

[BleedBlue14]

So Justin Faulk has looked really really good this game as with the pst 5 or so games.

 

[Robb_K]

Nice to see Faulk use some muscle on defence!

 

[Falco Lombardi]

That is one thing I love about Faulk. He plays 1 on 1s very physical

He's had a few very solid defensive plays tonight.

 

[Borderbluesfan]

How did the 4th line not score???

 

[Spektre]

Need to score one eventually

It's odd they haven't, Yotes D doesnt hold up when when the Blues amp up the physical play. Play them like they are the Avs

 

[Borderbluesfan]

Looking much better late in 2nd.

 

[Spektre]

Where was Allen going

Completely agree. Need to be more physical.

Faulk is having a good game. Everyone else the jury is still out. Allen too but hasn't been extremely challenged imo.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

The ice doesn't seem good tonight.

 

[STL BLUES]

The ice doesn't seem good tonight.

Very soft... Crappy

It's a weird game because it definitely feels like the pace has been dictated by the Coyotes....but they aren't having the same opportunities to show for it?

Jake has gotten a little puck luck tonight but he's been very solid. He's looked poised which was often the problem in years past. Staying calm and in position. There was one tricky deflection in the second that stood out as one that definitely beats him five hole last year that he stopped tonight.

 

[STL BLUES]

Ridiculous. They really need a fresh approach to 5-on-3 hockey. They keep that first unit out there for far too long.

Instead of Scheen on the point he needs to do his bread and butter in front of the net.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Desert ice....what do ya expect?

 

[rumrokh]

That is one thing I love about Faulk. He plays 1 on 1s very physical

I've seen a few HF posters describing him as incredibly soft and it blows my mind. It's not like he just gained physicality, either. Even on Carolina, he gave me some feisty Subban-lite vibes.

Put Thomas on the PP
