Boy....earlier this season, when I observed the schedule with Colorado & Tampa in consecutive games, there was no way I could foresee the Blues spanking both teams.
GDT: Game 14: Tampa Bay Lightning @ St. Louis Blues 7PM CST BSMW

Pro sports is becoming predictable and boring
It would be nice to see Vrana get fully out of the doghouse

This has been the Kyrou we’ve seen all year, just with shooting “luck” tonight

I can't wait to see Dvorsky and Snuggy added to this top 6

He's really played well. It's great to see he and Thomas rising to meet expectations.

Faulk has 7 points and is +12 and Krug has 6 points and is +8
i'm thinking that if kap is willing to take a pay cut there is path for him to stay.

Pay cut from his current $3.2m? If they can extend him below that number, I’d be ecstatic. I’d give him two more years at his current AAV no problem
This. And that each is able to carry a line. We separated them and BOTH took off!
That was a very 2019-esque performance.
I'd like to take this time to apologize to this team. They are seriously talented.
We're in for a fun ride this season.

TB looks a lot like the Blues did last season. Maybe a little too full of themselves after a lot of success and unwilling to do the little things that got them there.
Glad to see the Blues return to form.

I disagree. Kyrou finshed his 2 goals off executing with better skill tonight than usual. He controlled the puck perfectly with confidence, rather than his having it slide some and then having to re-adjust just before letting go of his shot that happens so often with him. Maybe he's been working more on his finishing moves to the point where keeping control is more instinctive, and he's not thinking about what he has to do.

I’m late to the party because of family get-togethers we’ll be having over the next 2 weeks. It’s our birthday season including my own 77th.
Fun game to watch. The Blues really looked energetic - flying all over the ice and hitting decently, too. They had several great steals and outlet passes, and played hard in all zones. They actually looked like a good team. This was their best game of the season so far. It gives me hope that they might well make the playoffs.
Binnington had a great game. He was very active and alert, and great positionally.
Kyrou looked like a breakout player. He was great on forecheck making steals, good passes, and he really finished well on his 2 goal-scorer’s goals. He was also good on defence. I hope he’s turned the corner, and this will be his break-out season.
Krug played a good game. He made several super feeds with a few leading to goals. He skated well like he’s healthy again.
Perunovich looked poised making good defensive plays, and some good feeds leading to chances. He looked solid. This gives me some hope that he’ll be able to hold his own in his own end, better and better with more NHGL experience.
Parayko was skating great, looking young again, like he found the fountain of youth, and is fully healthy again.
Vrana was energetic - skating hard in all 3 zones. He had several good chances and made a few good passes, and was adequate on defence.
Saad and Hayes had super chances that just missed. It could have been a 7-0 win, but with Binner so hot, it wouldn’t matter.

They did look a little sluggish. Maybe they got caught by surprise because The Blues came out with a lot of energy - and they didn't expect that. And because The Blues never let up, The Bolts never got going enough to change the momentum. And Binnington playing so well didn't help them in that effort.

Nah, the Blues have enough draft picks after last season, etc. Rather watch them make the PO's. Success breeds success.

Why take the boat when you can have the mystery box? It could even be a boat!

He left, get over it!
Congrats on your 77th Robb!
This team is definitely an enjoyable watch!
I think bolts are well into decline phase. Vasi covered a lot of cracks in team, and with him gone they look old and slow and shallow. They (like us) got squeezed hard by flat cap and their window closed sooner than they realized.
