Keep it going!

If they could play like this for 40 minutes a night, they would be Stanley Cup contenders.

It's like this team could play and compete with anyone if they get their head out of their ass.

Love that first period, but we HAVE to keep it up. Vegas is one of the best teams coming from behind.
What a refreshing period. Solid up front, but the back end, what a difference, not giving too many good looks, getting caught on our heels, Binny standing tall.
We need it, keep it up boys. LGB!!

Agreed. Except for Parayko. He is skating upright, slow, and avoiding contact and board battles. Also grenadine the puck when he gets it. I still don't think he should be back in the lineup yet.
That being said, best period we have played in a while.

Parayko is still hobbled. He looks timid and weak. That back must still be messed up.
When we are desperate we play best hockey

Also, I think someone needs to say it, but Walman looks like an NHL player right now.
That's not a prognosis of his career. But hell, he's been a bright spot the last month or so.

If his back was hurt so badly he couldn't skate then it makes sense he would be timid, it's human nature to be scared of an injury even after you're healed.

I will echo the Parayko comments, he definitely still looks off.
I still think we rushed him back due to desperation.

Walman looks very good. I love his aggression and his skating and edge work are f***ing great.

Kyrou fans on a scoring chance. The Blues are skating hard and shooting well. O'Reilly gets a nice tip as the siren sounds. A good 1st Period. The Blues could have been leading 4 or 5 -0 if things would have gone a little better. Tarasenko has more oomph in his shots now than earlier this season. But, he still looks like an old man on some plays. Same with Schwartz and Parayko. Parayko must be trying to be careful to avoid straining his back muscles. And Schwartz seems to have lost the ability to finish. In my 70+ years of watching hockey, and 27 of playing, I've seen older players lose physical ability - speed, quickness of reflexes and reacting, but I can't remember any losing skill.
I will add like the others have said Colt looks off. I still think they rushed him back.
When I saw the tweet last game that he was playing that screamed desperation.
And Walman looks great.
