When does Lindy pull the defense and try a different one?

 

[Zegras11]

Zamboni driver scores!

 

[Billy Bats]

Blues steamrolling. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

It's too bad Dallas is out of goalies to pull

 

[The_Man]

Looking forward to reading what that Blues Twitter guy has to say about going to this as his first NHL game

 

[rockaction]

Fabbri with a beautiful play at the blue line to keep that in. Yoah. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

Travis Moen is so fun to watch

 

[sporthenry]

Those things behind Lindy Ruff are quite big.  

 

[Bob Sacamano]

I feel as though I missed liking a post on that last page somehwere.

Daughter has a stupid choir concert tonight. Feels like they screwed up the seeding on it, too, though I haven't been in a choir thread all year so I should probably shut the f up about it.

Still can't believe #### is censored here.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Had to figure Blues would have a hangover after knocking Chicago out.  I think they woke up after Dallas tied that game up after being down 2 on Sunday.  Now Blues are locked in, they do everything well.

 at giving Reaves an even up there

 

[JaxBill]

I'm no soccer expert but aren't all these NBC Sports commercials for the Premier League's Championship Sunday kind of meaningless now?

Finishing top 4 is huge for Champions League money and then there's huge pressure to avoid being bottom 3 and get relegated.

Tl;Dr;  You obviously don't know their playoff seeding.

 

[Zegras11]

Zamboni is so fun to watch

True but most of that is already decided anyway.  I'm not watching a Sunderland game to see if they get relegated, I can read that in the papers. 

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

we need more #####ing about late start times from Blues fans

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Sissons with some speed.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Preds!

 

[Bill Brasky]

Preds!

 

[Bill Brasky]

Score a goal, Dallas.  Make the 3rd worth watching

 

[Billy Bats]

Islanders fans throwing objects on the ice. PA announcer has to ask fans to quit. #NYIvsTBL

Any fun giveaways to throw in the Bronx tonight? 

 

[Zegras11]

I ####### love the Preds

That Kia is pretty fun to watch

See what happens when you don't park the bus with a two goal lead, Hitchcock?

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Roussel barely had time to get comfortable that time. I'm sure he'll be back, though.

 

[Billy Bats]

Stars goalies are not fun to watch. 

 

[Brady Marino]

It's so refreshing to not be known as the team with goalie issues in the playoffs.

Has the Stars goaltending situation been this much of a dumpster fire all year?

 

[Bill Brasky]

Maybe I'll watch anyway to see if St Louis can hit double digits.  Or if Roussel will do something dumb

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Has the Stars goaltending situation been this much of a dumpster fire all year?

Nope. 

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Shots on goal are 16-10. Oh my word!

 

[Bill Brasky]

See what happens when you don't park the bus with a two goal lead, Hitchcock?

Hitch is right, it's often more of a tendency than a strategy

 

[Brady Marino]

Hitch is right, it's often more of a tendency than a strategy

Glad it's out of their system then (hopefully). Team's playing like they finally realize their status as giants.

Forsberg sighting

Hockey tonk

Forsberg!

Sweet goal

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Where is Martin Erat?

pretty sweet trade

Agreed. They slept walked through Game 1, and even when taking a 3-1 lead in Game 2, their play was still up and down, but since OT on Sunday, they have looked mostly great.  They definitely look locked in, and they need to stay aggressive since things opening up exposes the Stars defensive deficiencies. 

 

[ItsOnlytheRiver]

Well, this is nice. Aside from that weird game in Minnesota last year the Blues haven't won a playoff game by more than a goal in like 32 years. Hope they can do it tonight.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Lehtonen is at his best when down by 4

[Dickie Dunn]

Who does Lindy start in Game 4? Lehtonen? Richard Bachman? Andrew Raycroft?

 

[Brady Marino]

What's Ed Belfour doing nowadays?

 

[rockaction]

Tarasenko point blank off of Lehtonen's mask. Good night for a moment.  

 

[Bill Brasky]

McKenzie vs Reaves is as lopsided as it gets 

 

[rockaction]

Johns might need to sit one; Reaves just went to town on Curtis McKenzie. That wasn't even remotely close. 

Ow.

Jack Campbell 

assuming Belfour and Turco are not available.

Ow. 

Petro popped right back up, though. Fine maybe, but suspension seems a little harsh.
