I've wanted them to put in Talbot all series, so naturally I assume he's going to stop 50/51 for a 2-1 Wild win now.

If you look closely, there is an "LOL" in there. Let's hope it holds.

 

[The Note]

wear my lucky Blues socks (last used for game 7 in Boston).

Let's not break out the big guns just yet

 

[BrokenFace]

I haven't been able to read much today, but we think Talbot is starting but we won't know until game time because their coach isn't releasing their lines ahead of time? If that all is true then it sounds very desperate. We might see the Wild at their best for the first 10 mins. If so, we need to match the desperation.

 

[AjaxManifesto]

Doesn't matter who's in net for them.

Keys:
1) stay out of the box
2) stay disciplined, not just with regards to key #1, but also with regards to managing the puck (limit turn overs and maintain good coverage)
3) 89, 18, 10 have been quiet but they are doing things outside of scoring, tonight we need to see some goals
4) Binny needs to play above average, keep doing what he is doing
5) Make "The Thrill" earn everything....he's lethal, but don't make it easy for him

 

[CaliforniaBlues310]

Wild fans are throwing a hissy fit on Twitter because Chief referred to them as “Minny” lmao

These fans legitimately cry about everything

 

[Hrkac Circus]

Come on Blues give me a series win for my 51st birthday! I’ll be there!

Talbot's stats after the deadline look even more incredible if you remove the games against the Blues

Is it ok if we also squish them?

Not for nothing, but they combined for 4 points in game 5. Schenn's battle in front of the net was the biggest component of our 1st goal. On Saad's goal, Thomas beat 2 Wild players to chip the puck into the corner for Kyrou to pick it up and center the puck. He chipped it over 1 player from the wall to the middle of the ice, then beat another player to get the puck in the middle of the ice. It was a pretty nifty play and well deserved point. Buch's pass on our 3rd goal was arguably the nicest play of any Blues player in game 5 and then Buch got Tarasenko the puck for the empty netter after a good defensive play.

I'll take another 4 point night like that out of those 3.

If only the Wild could line up a different opponent for tonight...

However, I think stabbing is acceptable as long as we do it in style!

Wait until it's Colorado. That's going to be brutal.

I know 1 person(not me), guaranteed, to get banned during that series.

We gotta get there first, but god yeah, that has the potential to get VERY toxic lol.

 

[mk80]

Can we drop the puck already?!

Hopefully the lineup changes for the Wild turn out exactly like this:

I remember them flooding the Blues board after every game last year. Completely disrespectful and one of the few times I rooted for Vegas lol

 

[The Note]

Let’s cross the Avs bridge when we get to it!

 

[Stealth JD]

Man...it will be nice when we get to the Western Conference Finals and back to some normal start times. These Central Division playoff games always get shit on by the league when it comes to start times. Let tonight be game three of an eventual fifteen game winning streak.

 

[Chet Manly]

I sure hope Enterprise has had the AC cranked since Sunday.

f*** me it's hot today.

 

[Blanick]

Bringing in a goalie who hasn't played in 2 weeks to elimination game seems like a bad idea. Hopefully the Blues can score a couple early and kill any life the Wild have.

 

[PocketNines]

I can understand the fear of the lightning strike one-off goalie performance, but if it happens then he gets Game 7 too and has to do it twice. We are in a situation where the 2021-22 Blues forwards get two cracks at a recently sieve-like journeyman and I really think that's a good situation. If they can't get it done in that situation, let's just say there were going to be much tougher situations looming as the playoffs move along

 

[Blanick]

I think it is time for a power nap before the game, see you all in about 2 hours.
