flip over to TCM, balboa loses to creed

Might as well pop in my VHS tape of the MOVE bombing while we're here.

I'll just keep telling myself that this is not how playoff games end. Guess it makes me feel slightly better.

The league has to get rid of this shitshow. Just a terrible way to end games.

Just look at it as the game was a tie and the Blues won an extra point just like either team would have done if they had scored in the OT. We got our point. Now if the Rags would lose once in a while.

PP Last Five:
vs. LAK 0 for 4
@ NYR 0 for 2
vs. TOR 2 for 4
vs. BOS 0 for 4
@ STL 0 for 2

PK Last Five:
vs. LAK 4 for 4
@ NYR 1 for 2
vs. TOR 4 for 4
@ STL 3 for 3
vs. BOS 1 for 2

Our PK has been dominate recently and our PP has sucked. If we can get the PP working again we're a pretty dangerous team, but without I don't think we can beat the Rangers. /negadelphia

I get what you are saying but "0 for 4" does not capture the pressure they have been putting on teams while on the PP. In a vacuum, yeah, two goals on their last 16 PPs sucks but a few of those PPs they spent the entire two minutes in the zone peppering the opposing goalie. Four of those five games had Quick, Handsome, Rask and Miller standing on their heads. Of course, the Flyers certainly had a few total shit PPs in that group but, overall, they have been moving the puck well and getting good pressure of the PP. If they keep up what they have been doing the goals will come.

One very late, now meaningless, comment - next time, shot the fucking puck Claude.

Blues scored one short handed goal in 125 minutes vs the Flyers. See you in the Finals Hitchcock

Don't think the Blues have enough offense to make it to the finals, but if Miller stands on his head like he did last night then they can. Just don't trust Miller to not crap the bed.

I know they are top 5 in scoring, but I have a feeling they may lose some 2-1 games in the playoffs.

Timonen back tonight.

Apparently he could have played Tuesday, but Berube didn't want to chance anything and wanted to give him 3 days off

Perhaps a bit of hyperbole but tonight's game may be very much of the "must win" variety.

Not a must win, but it would almost lock up a playoff spot. Let's go Avalanche!

early power play for the good guys

PP has been something awful so far.

horrible. having trouble even getting it in the zone.

Good start to the period

yeah we look like a different team in the 2nd

PP to kill momentum.

Ducking BOB

Mase has been good but that's a shitty one to let in.
