GDT: Stanley Cup Final | Game #5 | Blues @ Bruins | "I guess we're the villains now?"

[AjaxManifesto]

Need the best performance of the year this Sunday. What we saw in game 5 will not be enough. Need more.....a lot more from everyone.

I just wanna say I was out in CWE last night, and 3-4 bars started *almost* simultaneously blasting Gloria, and the mix of the 4 might be the greatest thing I've ever heard. LGB!

 

[Louie the Blue]

Looking at the bar in Philly, where the Gloria story happened, Instagram, I think Tom Schlafly, part owner of the Blues and founder of Schlafly beer, made an appearance last night.

I want to see Brad Marchand looking dejected skating off the ice after we kick their asses on Sunday. I’d pay more money that I care to admit to watch that little rat cry. f*** that guy.

f*** that guy. f*** the town that looks the other way and supports him. f*** the national broadcasters who give him a pass on his BS just because he racks up points for a favored team like the Bruins.

I mean multiple things about this.

#1 I hate how Boston team is handling this. If they handled it more like the Blues, I would be REALLY SCARED that this would motivate them to win next two. Have to get over the fact that it happened like Blues did, but IDK if they are going to get over it. ( I JUST HOPE THIS DOESN'T DO TO BOSTON WHAT IT DID TO US AGAINST THE SHARKS, which I don't think it will with how they are handling it.)

#2 I think if Boston did get a PP out of it, their PP looked so bad last night, that IDK if they could have scored on it. Their PP was horrible.

#3 Binnington stole the game, which won't get mentioned at all now. Mentioned to friends before the game that it is time in series where one of the goalies will steal a game.

#3A But also does anyone us feel like the scoring chances were ridiculously high for Boston? I just didn't feel like Boston had that many total scoring chances at all. I think they were double us on it. I don't disagree Boston had just because we sat back on the lead.

#4 I feel Boston going with 11/7 was a horrible idea and still think it was bad idea. Chara played over 16 minutes. While #6 played 8:48 & #7 played 6:40

#5 You want more issue Boston on why you are losing the series??? Maybe just maybe you need to look at your top 6 performace at 5 on 5. Ask your top 6 where the world are they at???

Marchand 0 pts
Bergeron 0 pts
Krejci 0 pts
Backes 0 pts
Pastrnak 0 pts
DeBrusk 1 pt

Compared to the Blues top 6 currently at 5 on 5
Schenn 4 pts
Schwartz 2 pts
Tarasenko 3 pts
O'Reilly 4 pts
Perron 1 pt
Sanford 3 pts

THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE!!!!!

 

[Oberyn]

lmao Sanford has more points at ES this series than the entire top 6 of Boston

 

[Vladys Gumption]

Even though we were severely outshot, I really didn’t feel like Boston has more high quality chances. If anything I thought the high danger chances favored us.

 

[Hrkac Circus]

Bruins fans will be screaming "HEADSHOT!!" and then realize "oh....nevermind..."

 

[Eldon Reid]

That was what I thought too.

They had them for like double us in scoring chances which I thought was super generous. Yes Boston did a more scoring chances but I didn't feel like it was by the margin they had. I thought both of those stats would be closer than what they were. I felt the Bruins just threw everything on the net especially from the perimeter. Binnington was tested and made several great saves, but I thought a lot of the shots were from the outside.

Ranksu we missed you

For G6 just STAY OUT OF THE BOX. We own these guys on 5v5 play.

Was at the watch party and it was absolutely insane inside Enterprise. I can only imagine how loud it’s going to be on Sunday night.

 

[67Blues]

Seeing Canuck fans in here made me think if anyone has put backwards name guy on a milk carton yet?

 

[Hrkac Circus]

You can't let a guy walk end to end through three forwards who all had a chance to rub him off against the wall.

What is "rub off"?

One of my best friends is a Nucks fan and he's all aboard the Blues train. I'm sure most of them want revenge on Boston from 2011.

I think this map is probably a pretty accurate representation of everyone's rooting interest in the cup finals:

When Anna Kournikova enters the room, you rub off.

I still think the Leafs can come back and make this a series.

 

[Thallis]

It was a missed call....but it was just one missed call. If Carlo was less worried about getting one in on O’Reilly and came back to defend they could have absorbed it. Their players have been mentally looking for help from the refs. They should not have quit playing.

But who is going to argue they should have won when they could only manage one goal?

I have no sympathy. If you want to win a Cup, you have to overcome the occasional unfavorable call. The Blues have.

A missed penalty call is never a valid excuse for losing a game. Watching the team quit on the play and get scored on because of it is always a great thing to watch. play between the whistles. The guys in the stripes are paid to call the game, not you.

 

[hullderko]

Credit to Raask -- I though he played well enough to take the game. Binnington was better.

 

[Vektor]

I think this map is probably a pretty accurate representation of everyone's rooting interest in the cup finals:

At this point Illinois probably has more people rooting for the Blues. Even with Chicago included.

Not sure how the Chicago area feels right now, but downstate (however you want to define it) is eagerly awaiting Sunday night in hopes of a MASSIVE celebration.

needs a yellow dot for ref jose too

 

[Perratrooper]

Avs fan rooting for you guys hard, I think I speak for everyone when I say f*** Boston go Blues!!

Honestly don't know if I've ever rooted so hard for a team other than the Avs to win the cup, but I really hope you guys get to win it at home!
