GDT: Game #6: St. Louis Blues vs. Vancouver Canucks | Ellie Edition

[Bluesnatic27]

In case anyone is confused. I loathe the Canucks. The entire thing: team, fanbase, ownership. I can usually find at least one redeeming feature on every other team.
Not them.

Not the least of which is because my organization has a substantial presence there and the entire flipping office is going to text and email me with variations of "Blues suck" if the Blues allow some microscopic entities to keep them from abusing the Canucks to the point of destitution.

I'm currently attending the University of British Columbia right now, so I'll let you know of all the destroyed faces that I see after the Blues beat the Canucks.

Can't wait to see who we throw out on the ice today. LGB.

It might have been interesting to see Elliott square off against Miller.

I have to admit, the Canucks don't look so dangerous on paper. (Not necessarily for this game, but just as a contender in general.)

I thought Allen was in tnt.

He is.

He is.

Yeah, just realized the post on the FB page was from the other day.

Oops,

I'm with you. I was hoping they'd give Elliott the start against Vancouver. But at the same time, it makes sense to give him Chicago. He's hoing to pull the more difficult assignments.

Oshie needs to get start producing goals and at least assists soon is all I have to say.

It's five games in. He'll be fine.

I don't think you're showing the right amount of early-season concern.

You need enough to be irritated, but not enough to be panicked. Thislassie-faire attitude is only going to hurt the Blues by not providing enough cumulative angst.

This would be the ideal game for Ott to get a goal, something slimey right in the crease. I'd really like to see him troll Miller a time or two.

Or this board.

Was looking forward to Gunnarson playing.

 

[Dbrownss]

I expect a lose..

No disappointment tonight for me

 

[frostyflo]

Steen with a 2 goal, 3 point night tonight

Was looking forward to Gunnarson playing.

yeah, me too

Meh. I think after the game on Sunday and a couple days off they'll win this one. Even with the first of, what I assume will be many, flu bugs running through the team. Something like 4-2 Blues. 3 points for Steen.

I for one never underestimate the capacity for this team to lose. I wont expect the team to turn it around till next week.

 

[KirkOut]

If Steen plays, I hope they run SOB line and match them vs. the Sedins all game. The rest of their lineup doesn't seem like nearly as much of an offensive threat. This is the type of game where stacking the lines is a better strategy IMO

 

[Stopsight]

I think losing kesler will be a big factor for Vancouver in this game. We might be able to open them up and get a surprise win

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

S-O-B all the way.

Is Paajarvi really playing 4th line? I'd much rather see:

Steen - Backes - Oshie
Paajarvi - Berglund - Lindstrom
Schwartz - Lehtera - Tarasenko
Ott - Lapierre - Reaves

I think it could be Swede. If Berglund can be set-up for some one-timers, Paajarvi and Lindstrom's speed would be huge against the older Burrows and Higgins.

 

[PeterAngelo]

Really hoping the team shows no ill effects of the flu bug tonight because if they do then I have serious, serious reservations about tomorrow's game against the Hawks.

Blues 3 (Paajarvi, Frank, Steen)
Nucks 2

The hawks game is in 2 days, not tomorrow.

You guys have a lot less free-floating rage than I do.
I need to start hanging out with an angrier group of fans.

Any work who else is sick?
