GDT: St. Louis Blues @ Florida Panthers | FSMW - KMOX 1120 | 6:30 PM CST

If Oshie somehow knew the play would continue for over a minute, getting a stick would have been the better play. Usually you're going to get a clear or stoppage much quicker though.

That's true, but it's not like Oshie is going to be a part of that if it happens (or contribute much else defensively until it does). Does it really matter if he's there?

My philosophy runs counter to the way things are generally done, but I'm still a believer in it. I see plays continue for a long time much more often than I see a stickless defender make a play on the PK.

 

[STL BLUES]

Frank needs one. Um, so do I need to throw a quinoa on the grill?

 

[Fred Murtz]

Alexander Steen slapshot goal 4-0

 

[PocketNines]

On the Oshie stick thing, the ref picked it up and skated away with it early on after he lost it.

 

[PocketNines]

Flyers losing 7-0 at home to the Caps and apparently there was some kind of brawl.

I'm unsure. Oshie wasn't completely useless out there, he was blocking shooting lanes and helping the PK force the Panthers into quick plays as opposed to the methodical setup you might see on a 5 on 3. I wouldn't be upset to see a guy go get a stick or a change in that situation though.

All four of Stewart's points this season have come against Florida.

All four of Stewart's points this season have come against Florida.

Now that's consistency

 

[PocketNines]

Wow, the Florida announcers took a break from an exceptionally long discussion of eating and sandwiches during play to actually describe the play.

 

[Fred Murtz]

T.J. Oshie defense without a stick in 2nd on PK

 

[Captain Creampuff]

congrats guys, your team is awesome, wish them good luck for the rest of the season and the play offs which I'm sure is a lock this season (no jinx)
our team is pathetic and we've been totally dominated these 2 games , no chance against the Blues

Don't get so down on your team man, you guys are just rebuilding and have some solid pieces for the future. Always look up even when you're down. Stay positive and you guys will be back in a few years.

Very nice plays by Cole, Schwartz and Tarasenko on that shift.

 

[PocketNines]

Maybe we can pry away a center from Florida for Stewart

I'm greedy. Steener needs another one.

 

[floydmurphy]

Just blacked out and had a seizure then started sucking my thumb when I heard Kelly say "And Boyes shot wide!!"

 

[frostyflo]

I'm greedy. Steener needs another one.

I`d rather see Schwartz or Frank getting one, especially the latter deserves one IMO.

 

[LGB51]

Great save by Elliot there.

 

[542365]

Cracks blocking a slapper up 4-0 in the 3rd. Hitch is going to love that.

 

[Robb_K]

Nice glove save by Elliott on a deflection off of Jackman! He's played pretty well tonight.

 

[ManyIdeas]

I'm liking Cole's play.

 

[542365]

Stewy with a ridiculous burst of speed.

 

[Robb_K]

Stewart all alone in on goal, but the puck rolled off his stick, and he shot it wide. Too bad. It would have been nice to have him score 2 goals and 1 assist this game.

I thought the Panthers penetrated the middle of the ice almost at will once Oshie broke his stick. There were several dangerous chances from the mid-slot, or from someone coming into the middle from his wing uncontested.

It looks like Fred posted the video, so I'll go back and take a look at that here in a bit.

I'm not sure what game you're watching but I am seeing a Blues team taking advantage of their chances and a relentless Panthers team (at times) that could easily have made this a game in the 2nd period.

It's a long season buddy!

Emery beat the living hell out of Holtby.
