Per Jeff Patterson

St. Louis swept all three games from the Canucks last season outscoring Vancouver 11-5 in the process. Overall, the Blues have won five straight against the Canucks and are 8-0-1 in the last nine in this match-up. Jake Allen is 6-0-2 in his past eight starts against the Canucks including five straight victories.

...those are some bad numbers. However this isn't the same team as the last few seasons, the amount of roster turnover we have had in the forward group changes that dynamic.

I'm still convinced the Blues are bad, but as a team we seem to do better playing good teams than teams below us in the standings. That said we have 5 more games played than the Blues but only 3 more points at 27p with 31 games played to 24p in 27 games respectively.

So will it be a battle for the bottom or start of a streak? Whatever the case, I hope it's not boring.

COCONUTS GO!
3-1 Nucks
Leivo, Pettersson and Virtanen with another Empty Net Goal.

Why are the Blues so bad this year? I thought they were contenders.

Well, I mean... considering our last taste of playoff hockey ended with massive disappointment and questioning of the team assembled?

Why are the Blues so bad this year? I thought they were contenders.

They say that, literally every year though?

 

[David Bruce Banner]

We power through this one to extend our epic win streak to 2.

6-4 Canucks

Pettersson x2
Horvat
Leivo
Virtanen
Gaudette

It will be our last win before Christmas

Goaltending can sink or swim a team.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Top 6 today might look like this:


Goldobin - Horvat- Virtanen
Leivo- EP40- Boeser

 

[Nomobo]

Gaudette is out for this one, sick.

 

[Serac]

Gaudette conveniently out against the blues. Doesn't want to stir up any bad blood with his future team.

 

[Fire Benning]

Granlund-Beagle-Motte is probably considered a 2nd line by Green.

Then why is Tarasenko playing ?

Bad numbers indeed. That plus the matinee can mean only one thing; a start for Nilsson...

Then why is Tarasenko playing ?

I ask myself this question every time we face Ryan Johansen.
