‘‘Twas the Stars who ended the Blues 11-game streak around this time last year. Would hate to see them spoil the fun again.

Let’s Go Blues!

[Honeycutt]

Gonna be good game tonight, lets go BLUES!

 

[Spektre]

No Kyrou. So he has a fantastic shift that shows what he can do at the NHL level and gets benched and now booted out of the lineup??

So much for trying to be a creative player. I guess creativity is only acceptable if the player is paid millions of dollars

Creativity doesn't win Cups, UNLESS you're talking about a player like Ovechkin or Crosby. But even they have to play within a structure.

 

[Celtic Note]

Thomas and Perron do the same as Kyrou did last game.

why is puck possession a bad thing exactly?

 

[The Note]

Seems pretty dramatic to bench Kyrou for half a period then take him out of the lineup for that.

 

[mike1320]

it's not the first time a young, gifted player has been benched and it won't be the last.

I saw that Kyrou is sick. I don't think he's being taken out of the lineup.

 

[thedustman]

Licking my chops at that f***in depth

 

[WeWantTacos]

They're reporting Kyrou is sick.

 

[Zezel’s Pretzels]

Come on y’all. Kyrou would never be benched for DLR by choice. Give Chief more credit.

 

[GoBluz24]

Kyrou did not practice yesterday nor partake in this mornings skate. He's not being punished, just hurt or sick.

 

[Ranksu]

They are reporting Bortuzzo and Sanford had some fight with Kyrou. That is why Kyrou hasn't skate.

 

[BlueDream]

Lol overreaction to Kyrou.

Berube knows what he’s doing.

 

[Mike Liut]

Lol overreaction to Kyrou.

Berube knows what he’s doing.

Just because he won a cup and has the 2nd best record in the nhl without their top scorer for the season? This makes you think he knows what he’s doing?

[TK 421]

OMG Chief hates Kyrou!

Actually he's sick.....

Sorry guys, just thought that was hilarious.

Nobody isn't safe. Chief deserves credit and know what he does, but imo is healthy to criticize.

I hope that came off as a joke as intended.

 

[simon IC]

Lol @ the Kyrou hysteria. It reminds of the Rattie posts. "Ermagerd , Hitch is stifling Ratties creativity! He's ruining him!" Anyway, should be a good game. Go Blues!!!

 

[BlueDream]

Go Blues.

But we also have to root for Nashville tonight ewww

 

[simon IC]

Go Blues.

But we also have to root for Nashville tonight ewww

Nope. Sorry, can't do it.

 

[Dbrownss]

Holy shit.......... maybe I'm wrong but the Kyrou sick tweets came out fairly quick to assume he was taken out if the lineup because of Chief
