Stars almost blew the game, but I'm just sad that Heiskanen was inches away from the hat trick on that empty netter that was just wide.

Your whining might be better received if the "guy with a broken face in a full cage" wasn't trying to start a fight with Lindell.

Wow. Hardly whining. Smith is also a plug, though not quite at Polak type low levels. Impressive that Polak has some little fanboys, though. lol. Not too upset to see Stars finally win one out of the past six games against us. And always great to watch Spezza play. Underappreciated in Dallas. I guess when Roman Polak is getting all the fan attention....

Dude we're icing 2 career AHL guys in Hanley and Fedun because we have so many injuries. You take Roman Polak out and our whole defense has less than 200 games experience combines and most of that is Lindell .

Roman Polak does what Roman Polak does. He's playing so much because he's better than AHL players. Period.

Canucks need a backup goalie....

Who is this scrub?

Seems like goaltending is in a rut. Just a handful of years ago there were 1A and 1B all over the place.

Agreed. Leaves avs they go from bad to good, leaves sabres they go from bad to good, joins blues they go from good to bad
Stl wasn't good last year though.... Colorado didnt get good after Orielly left, It took time. Buffalo......its not like they just dumped Orielly and got better.

I guess this is why he’s a playmaker.

Buffalo just happened this summer... They added Skinner and lost ROR and started winning games.

St. Louis has a good team, bad goal tending and bad coaching but they were expected to be better after added ROR

The funny thing is Buffalos goalie who is playing well so far as a #1 used to play in stl

I'd say adding Skinner and a Goalie has more to do with it then losing Orielly.

Really is a dumb narrative

Whatever... sucks for ROR that his former teams are sitting in a playoff spot right now and his team is competing with LA for worst in the west

If they were calling interference the Oilers would have been on the PP for 40 minutes of the game.

If they called all the interference against the Oilers and Gretzky in his playing career he'd have 1000 more points. You have to battle through at this level and take the calls you get.

You have seen our alleged "defence", right? Potentially record breaking and I think it has about the same or less experience. The one who has lots of it (Ceci) plays like he's about to be sent down FROM the AHL. My main point is, however, that I don't like Roman Polak and I think he does stupid things. Most fans of teams he plays on tend to feel the same way. Best we leave it at that.

He was signed as the #7 but now 4 of our top 6 are injured and he's beeing relied on. He's actually done well at it but its not like this was part of the plan and yes he will rough up people and make dirty plays at times . Thats who he is.
