I think we need to resurface the positivity thread. These GDTs are becoming harder and harder to read.
Blues just need to believe in the process, pay attention to detail and maintain the effort. They’ll pull out of this and win more games than they lose if they keep working and competing. They’ve lost so many 1-goal games where all the breaks have gone against them...eventually they’ll get rewarded. The last month has sucked, but they’re not going to collapse and fall out of the playoff picture. There too much talent and pride on this team...they’re just playing teams much more hungry, desperate and fortunate lately.
Starting to feel like December from last year. Playing well enough to win, but not finishing on some chances. Stick with the grind
He’s just an incredibly dumb player. That contract extension should have been earned if/when he proved to be a good fit for this club and roster, not given and hopeful of working out. Shades of Allen’s gift of a contract...you’d think Army would have learned from that mistake. Even if Petro walks, this guy isn’t someone to build around...definitely not a high-IQ guy that the Blues prefer. The pro-scouting department deserves all the scrutiny they get for this move.Speaking of Faulk, what was he doing on the gwg tonight. Backing in like he was playing a 2 on 1 and looked like he was blindfolded trying to stickcheck Turris
The Blues need to look into a depth defenseman at the deadline!

I completely agree that Faulk should not have been in that position, but dear Lord, his stick checking is atrocious! It is just unfortunate that he was the last man back, because he is the last person you want to see there.He may have seen Ekholm skating in on the right wing. Turris looked at him as he skated in. Problem was, two of the four Blues that went after the puck along the boards were coming back to the play and Barbashev was in position to break up a pass and pressure or cut Ekholm off had it gotten through.
I said in another thread that from what I have seen (and I rarely get to see Blues games here, today was an exception), I see too many defensive gaffes resulting in second and third chances, and players left open in great shooting positions. I attributed that to seeing too many players playing the puck and not a man. The defense was better at that today, right up to the GWG when four committed to the puck leaving Faulk back.
Faulk is not the guy I want to leave in that position, from what I have seen. I get what he was concerned about on the play, but all things considered, the play should have wound up with Turris on his butt.
offering for the kraken maybe ? i dont want to hate on him ... butFirst game this season I decided not to watch. I will continue this IF no change for d-pair.
Please explain what Faulk did in that game winning goal? 7-years more watching Faulk.
He’s been off and on there. Usually he’s on the 3rd line but the lines got mixed up and he just got put there a couple games ago.How long has Bozak been on the wing in the top six? Any good reason to believe it’ll last for a bit?
