GDT: TankTown Express: No Sunny Side Up

[KKWG11]

Hopefully you made that pick up…

Luckily I did!

I will be making GDT Friday, will be another win.

God we need someone to beat you to the GDT.

You get into his head by scoring a bunch of goals on him. He looks for reasons to lose his mind when he's getting lit up. Little bumps like that don't get to him until long after his head is completely out of the game.

It's not even a bunch of goals, it's when the team is extra dog shit.

My guess is that they will uphold the automatic one game suspension from the match penalty without adding anything else. Maybe they give him another game as a 'we want to make sure we're removing him from a scheduled start' measure.

He should sit a game. Post-whistle blockers to the face/head while still holding the goalie stick with several guys bunched together just can't be treated casually by the NHL. The linesmen should have let Fleury stand up for his guy there, but either way this is a play that should result in supplemental discipline.

What's Hilarious to me is that if you remember in 2016 against Chicago when Crawford attacked Fabbri with the blocker on and all and the Hawks got the f***ing power play from it? llol

What always confuses me is how many fans who have been around awhile hate Binnington but loved Hextall back in the day. They're the same guy - Hextall was statistically better but Binny has the Cup - the game has just changed. He chirps the other team's bench? <gasp> Big deal, it happens 20 times a game with skaters.

I think most of what he does is stupid, but I agree with what Chief said in the presser last night. If a guy runs you in the crease after scoring a goal, go after him. But the blocker to the head is crossing the line. If you want to be able to mix it up like the skaters, drop the gear and square up with the guy. Personally, I thought the funniest part of that whole exchange was Fleury skating all the way down the ice, dropping the gear in an exaggerated manner, skating over to Binnington... and then jumping behind the linesman. He didn't want that smoke.

It's because they're f***ing p***yes tha care more about virtue signalling so strangers think, wow this is such a good person and they think just like I do. I can't f***ing stand it.

It's the same type of fanbases that are whining. No Cups, some on their second NHL franchises that are doing as bad or worse than the first or haven't seen a Cup win since the invention of electricity or color TV. Sometimes those who mock do so because that's all they got.

The Cup is everything. We got one, most of them don't. We don't need to prove jack, we've done it all and own all the hardware in our history. That's far, far more than good enough for me.

It's not good enough for them because they don't have it and in this world it's easier to be jealous and envious than to expect more, do more and surprise-surprise, get more.

Wear your colors with pride, folks. We earned them.

Like, could you imagine bragging that your team that was just relocated to your city won a cup the first year there? Like, another city built that team and other fans put their pain and tears into that team and then you brag for winning? What a joke. I would take have the Blues since 1967 and haveing never won a cup over getting someones hand me downs.

Amen brother. Same here.

 

[DoubleK81]

Suspending a goalie is pretty worthless as they get days off typically. I hope he gets a few games to help our tank even more though.

But he's a shit goalie, shouldn't having him play help the tank more?

 

[GoldenSeal]

Or maybe we should not play a goalie at all, have an empty net all game and instruct our six players to just figure skate around the rink. Puck? What's a puck? Who gives a puck!

 

[Stealth JD]

Binny is such a wimp. Like, legitimately probably the biggest wimp in the league. His antics make me embarrassed for him, not that I think he's embarrassing the Blues. The Blues have had bigger idiots and psychopaths than Binny, and guys who have embarrassed the org in a greater manner, but if the level of cringe isn't the highest with Binnington, then I'd be shocked.

 

[joe galiba]

Folks said that about hull. Then he won Cups everywhere else.

Lots of people, including a decent chunk on this site, said the same thing about Petro

 

[ChicagoBlues]

I don't know, but I'd lay a loonie that the guys were McFranchise and Dry Saitl.

I’ll raise that a toonie.

I hear ya. I’ll love Binner forever for helping us win the first Cup in the most dramatic fashion possible, but I do wish he could keepl a more level head out there on the ice. Use that passion to stop pucks and stop going after guys. Like that he’s a fiery competitor tho.

 

[Bluesnatic27]

Remember when Oshie was a playoff ghost until he wasn't?

Remember when Perron couldn't do anything in the playoffs until he suddenly could?

People always make those stupid claims that so-and-so will never win a cup/perform in the playoffs. Then they do and those who said otherwise never speak about it oddly enough.

 

[shpongle falls]

Did you guys see this? lmao. Fleury’s a beauty.

devil’s advocate: We did the same with the Rams in ‘99 even though they were here for four years.

I don't know a single person that really cared for the Rams. Not like the Blues and Cardinals.

You wouldn’t have tolerated Durbano who was legit psychotic. Binny is nowhere near that tier.

Could’ve fooled me. There was a brief moment when the Rams eclipsed them both in popularity.

 

[Ranksu]

To me I'm fine what Binny did. This team is full of soft players. Good to see some temper and passion. Shame linemens f***ed up possible great goalie fight.

sad that our goalie has to be the one to do this all the time though

 

[Play]

Hate him or love him, Binnington will be missed by majority of NHL fans when he retires

 

[BadgersandBlues]

I didn't mind the response. I think Binner goes a little nuts when our team is playing like zombies. He's a competitive dude, I can appreciate that.

That said, he needs to stop using his equipment to attack people. It wasn't cool when Crawford did it all those years ago, and it's not cool now. You wanna throw a punch then drop your gear like the rest of the crew.

Fleury has absolutely no hate in his heart. Guy is genuinely nice and loves what he does and I really love and respect that.

sunny looks dumb in a wild jersey

Oh yeah!!!

Retro über cool Wild jersey with "Sunny" on the back.

This must happen.

Why not a 2019 Blues one with his name on it? You know, a championship jersey and not North Stars 2.0.

Because I love the Wild's retro jerseys.
