GDT: Defending Stanley Cup Champs St. Louis Blues vs. Philly

[StLewis11]

Disappointing finish, but that was an entertaining game, two good teams going hard at each other.

And now even Voracek is complaining this is nuts.

ya well that "slash" call they got was complete bullshit, i'd be pissed too.

Blues PP was gift wrapped this game and decided not to take it.

Flyers played a strong, physical game and covered a lot of ice in the neutral and defensive zones. They were quick on the transition and looked to have their legs under them all night.

Blues’ top lines (non-Schwartz category), PP units and top pairing looked sluggish for much of the game — poor communication and coverage — and still pulled out the loser point. Would’ve liked to have seen ten in a row, but hey - maybe our new Blues felt guilty about taking all the records lately.

Blues PP is 4 in the league. Flyers 18th lmao. Congrats on winning your Stanley cup in January. Enjoy watching us on tv in June again.

The Blues had the puck enough in the OT, but they didn't set up any good offensive plays. With 3 men in control of the puck, you should be able to set up some higher percentage chances than just shooting at the goalie, who sees the shot all the way, and hoping he'll make a mistake. They could at least have the 3rd man skating in for the rebound, with the first man passing, second making a move, and then shooting. They didn't have much coordination among the 3 players in the offensive zone in OT, which is the best way to create offence other than getting a lucky breakaway in your own zone when regaining possession.

Does he realize that we were without Tarasenko, Blais and Parayko?

Be Happy with the win and beat it.

Really, man?

I’ll just assume he’s talking about the ice quality tonight — looked kind of soupy at times, by my eye.

how about that power play to start the third? Don’t put 6 guys on the ice.

 

[TheDizee]

Blues played a C level game and still got a point. That was a pretty poor game all around and the lack of urgency showed big time

I will gladly take the point as we continue to pad our lead in the division.

Blues played like total ass and STILL almost beat your trash squad Flyers are incredibly bad and have no talent waiting in the Wings. Enjoy being mediocre for the next ten years.

I know we're all hurting, but uhh, chill.

 

[TK 421]

Fought back to get a point and take 1st in the league, unusually bad 3v3 OT cost the 2nd point.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

hows that nolan patrick kid doing ?

 

[TK 421]

You're just making more work for our mods responding.

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

Be nice to that Flyers fan, he's just really excited that the 2 points tonight will let his team hold on to the 2nd WC for another 2 days before they get passed by Columbus and Florida.

If he's going to come in here talking shit he's going to get the truth thrown at him. They suck. He shouldn't shit talk the champs.

 

[LetsGoBLUES91]

And now here’s Konecny complaining about officiating! Unreal!

Thank god you guys blew a 3-1 lead in the last period of the game to give us the best record in the NHL

Oooof, in a dog fight for a welfare spot against those powerhouses.

There are more top teams in the East this year but once you get past the 4 or 5 teams, its total trash after that.

 

[Note Worthy]

They interviewed the Flyers coach in the middle of the game and he was complaining about the reffing and both players they interviewed complained about the refs. The refs were pretty bad but it’s odd to hear them all complain about it.

Refs were horrendous tonight and its a damn shame the Blues top PP decided to take the night off because the tears flowing would have been a sight to see.

 

[BlueDream]

Intense game. Flyers played pretty dirty and deserved even more calls that they received.

I could see the OTL coming. Got a point though so we’re fine.
