Re: GDT: SCF Game 1: St Louis Blues at Boston - 7:00 - NBC - Mon 5/27

Seems like just another game to me....taking the Berube approach. I'm sure as the pregame stuff kicks in, it will seem more real. No expectations Timmy. We’re counting on you ;) Damn straight....I’m keeping it on an even keel. Even if we lose tonight ....I’ll just move on to game 2. I’ve found a ca...

Re: GDT: SCF Game 1: St Louis Blues at Boston - 7:00 - NBC - Mon 5/27

The Cinderella St. Louis Blues are the underdogs to the Big Bad Boston Bruins in the eyes of the hockey world, so the Blues have nothing to fear and nothing to lose. The best hockey is always saved for late May/early June when only two teams remain in the battle. And today my friends, is a great day...

Re: Stanley Cup Final Matchup Thread (pre-series discussion): BLUES vs. BRUINS

Does anyone here like Vitale? Because I think he’s pretty good. 1. I don't know Kerber personally so I have no idea if he is a jerk or not, but I think asking Kelly to join him in the booth for the Final is a truly classy gesture. 2. I've enjoyed Vitale on the radio broadcasts the few times I've he...

Re: 25 Greatest Blues?

The article title was very misleading. It wasn't someone's idea of who the greatest Blues players were. It was someone's idea of the greatest NHL players who ever wore the Note. There's a huge difference.

Re: Stanley Cup Final Matchup Thread (pre-series discussion): BLUES vs. BRUINS

From Elliotte Friedman's 31 Thoughts: "28. Outstanding gesture of the week: The late, great Dan Kelly called the Blues’ last Stanley Cup games in 1970. Son John is their regular television play-by-play voice, but local tandems do not work in-game after the first round of the playoffs. However, ...

Re: Army finalist for GM of the year

I don't have a subscription to the Athletic, but a friend of mine shared the JR article about Army with me and it completely changed my view of him. Understanding how he worked his way up, how he lives, eats, and breathes the game, and how he is so well respected by the other GMs and hockey people ...

Re: NY Times: As the Blues Seek the Stanley Cup, a Hockey Hub Grows in St. Louis

That's for sure. Just getting back and forth to the rinks in Granite City and East Alton is a pain, especially for families with little kids. Back in the early 70's there was a beautiful rink (Le Chateau Ice Arena) in Fairview Heights and it broke my heart when it closed. The building now houses St....

Re: GDT: Game 6: St Louis Blues vs San Jose - 7:00 - NBCSN

My step-dad (who introduced me to Blues hockey, encouraged me to play, and sacrificed to pay for me to play) and two of my uncles, all of which I spent many, many hours with watching Blues games at the Old Barn in the 1970's have passed and never got to see the Blues in the Stanley Cup Finals. As mu...

Re: GDT: Game 6: St Louis Blues vs San Jose - 7:00 - NBCSN

I’ve got zero expectations for tonight That's exactly what I've been doing through these playoffs. I'm doing everything I can to not get ahead of myself or get too excited. Been there, done that too many times in the past. I meant to post this a few minutes ago but had to switch my attention to the...

Re: GDT: Game 5: St Louis Blues vs San Jose - 2:00 - NBC - Sun 5/19

Petro skating with his head down.....good lord Or taking a hit to make a play and clear the zone, if it was any other player on the Blues. He saw him, chose to make the play and got drilled. Any other player and they get praised. He was giving extra effort to help make up for the turnover in the co...

Re: GDT: Game 4: St Louis Blues vs San Jose - 7:00 - NBCSN - Fri 5/17

Of the 333 players who have participated in this season's playoffs, Steen is the 15th oldest (Bouwmeester is 11th). However, of all players on the three teams still playing, Steen sits only behind Chara, Thornton, and Bouwmeester in age. On the flip side, Thomas is the 4th youngest participating in ...

Re: FTP: WCF Game 4 Sharks 05/18/2019

Wow! Sharks fans seem to be the biggest whiners in the league! "They didn't make it to finals in 2004 because Roloson was a diver, the Sharks were the better team" That is what the first sharks fan I ever met said to me about hockey. It hasn't gotten much better from there. They're pretty...
