[542365]

Yes! 2 points! Ugly game for sure, but 4 in a row.

Atta boy Jake!!

 

[Lakewood]

Good for Allen. Great confidence booster. He was excellent.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

Woooohoooo!

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

2goalie system wasn't enough two years ago, so now we run three? Makes sense to me.

 

[Meatball]

Allen is skilled. Really shows in shootouts.

Credit to Carolina, they brought their A game.

 

[elkranio]

Probably gonna be a tight OT win like vs Oilers.

Called it. But refs... oh well you know.

 

[542365]

Could have playoff implications by not getting the ROW though.

 

[uncommonsense52]

Yay we won.

That last minute in OT was such a hose job by the refs.

No goal that should have been a goal.

Very close offside call that I'd need to see again.

Faceoff not at the Canes blue line, but rather ours?

Such bad officiating is... Well, common, but still bad.

 

[KirkOut]

great job by Allen today. Probably should have won in regulation but like Pang said, 2 pts is 2 pts

 

[LGB51]

Jonathon Quick has allowed all three shots past him that he's seen thus far. Down 3-0 early in the first against the Jets. They'll still find a way to win

Well he's got to have those, because true starters don't have games or even stretches like that. Quick hasn't been to great on the road this year.

 

[Robb_K]

The Blues should beat Carolina at home when healthy. But, they got the 2 points, and Allen got the confidence from pitching a shutout in the shootout. So, it's good.

 

[LGB51]

He's a backup, a really good backup.

This! All this^!

 

[LGB51]

But he's won a cup, don't goalies that win cups always make the big saves?

True starters do, apparently Quick is just a really good backup too, instead of a legit starter. Took several years, but we finally got that straightened out lol.

 

[LGB51]

Allen has been very very good tonight.

Yes he has, came in and locked things down. Props where props are due.

 

[Ranksu]

Yah, somebody sayed already, but how calm Allen was SO was astonishing. Feel bad a little bit Elliott how team was sloppy in 1st period, but great efford by Allen when he got change to shine and stand up.

Like we see now, guys cannot come home ice with 50% performance, but overally I liked how we gear up and really showed how we can play when we are down by 2 goals.

Future match coaching stuff need to put streight Stastny with Schwartz and Tarasenko. Lehterä is now facing some slump, mainly his skating is terrible, but you can see like this OT, how he still can create great scoring changes too bad they overruled that Jbo goal.

OT: Why on earth they f up nhl.com boxscore, annoying video starts to play when try to look players stats etc. I hate it and I know its 'old' thing, but still gets me mad.

 

[Fred Murtz]

Blues no goal in OT

 

[Daley Tarasenkshow]

2goalie system wasn't enough two years ago, so now we run three? Makes sense to me.

lol, the goalie system or the goalies themselves are the last ones to blame for the results the past few years.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

lol, the goalie system or the goalies themselves are the last ones to blame for the results the past few years.

I mean, Brodeur's puck handing and playmaking are really the difference between a cup and not making the playoffs, IMHFBO.

 

[Note Worthy]

Just watched the game (I set the DVR).

Was it amateur hour at FSMW?

First they had a graphic saying Tarasenko bobble head night was Thursday March 17th instead of March 12. The 17th isn't even a Thursday.

Then they had Brian Elliott's numbers up before the shootout when they should have had Allen's numbers up because Elliott was sitting on the bench so it doesn't matter what his numbers are as far as tonight's shootout is concerned.

And finally at the end of the game they had the final score of 6 to 4.

 

[sbet1998]

Good game, was fun to watch.

Maybe one day I can make a thread about their success and word it properly so no one's feelings get hurt or anxieties increase. Until then, they shall never be mentioned on HF by the likes of me. Sorry.

 

[Fred Murtz]

Full shootout 5-4

 

[sbet1998]

Full shootout 5-4

Someday maybe you guys will figure out that chest-thumping is a healthy endeavor. To be confident and not cocky will only help.

Proven. Being a depressed nothing-at-all is a major mistake. Have some ****ing faith. I made a confident thread on the main board. Get over it, they deserve it. They will never win the Cup we all want with the majority of you crying about success or the repercussions of it. You either want it or you dont, grow a pair and get it. Or just complain about the idea of defeat once again.

 

[Freyj]

Whether they win the cup or not has absolutely nothing to do with what is said or isn't said on HFBoards.

To your point: this is a forum for what should be intelligent analysis of NHL teams' performances, not a cheerleading squad.
