DiPietro. Enough said.

Happy brown liquor is the best brown liquor! Woooooo!! Keep it up boys, LGB!!!

Not bad for a team with an idiot for a coach, a terrible captain, and a sieve for a starting goalie.

You St Louis Elliotts...

Thanks Charter for making my internet crap out during the game. Quite happy with the result though obviously!

What a crazy round. ..my heart is going to need a retread.

.....and my playoff beard lives on

Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.

I;m glad for Stillman, The Blues' coffers, and, especially, us long sufferring long-time Blues fans! There IS some justice in The World! Onward and upward all the way to The Cup!

We need some celebrating smilies, like dancing bananas holding beer steins!

nah, we won in spite of his terrible coaching decisions, Backes' lack of leadership, along with Dallas' inability to capitalize on scoring chances

BTW, anyone know who makes the best canned crow? I think I'm due to eat some

yes. this "offsides is good for review" thing is fucking stupid. it has to be situational. i mean, if someone was offsides CLEARLY on a breakaway or something that lead directly to a goal, and the refs missed it, fine. but the two we have been denied, being offsides had nothing to do with the play. everyone kept skating and that millimeter didn't change anything.

didn't have to wait long. i fucking hate that guy. and even the guy assigned to be our advocate, jonesy, only did so begrudgingly. even my wife who has no idea asked why these guys hate the blues.

seriously, wtf is the matter with you?

fabbri - amazing. that first goal, i don't even know how you roof that on your backhand from there, let alone the fact that he was there to do it in the first place. then that pass on the brouwer goal, holy shit - through two defenders, even. don't know how you make that. he was throwing his body around, pushing stars' players off the puck... i mean, a 20-year old kid in a 2nd round game 7 with 3 points? christ. his line had 9 points last night alone. our future looks very bright.

I feel like I've been sniffing glue. Hell I almost don't know how to feel.

One step closer to my first ink.

More work to do!!!

Eddie Olczyk is such a lump. The Blues were just "a little better"....6-1, 4-1, 6-1...25-14 outscoring, hmmmmm, guarantee that if it was the other way around, it would have been a "dominating" Dallas performance. And no, Seguin would not have made up that difference.

You just KNEW that Seguin missing excuse from media was coming...
Never mind that they had a darn near full roster ALL YEAR, where we didn't and STILL put up a helluva fight for top spot...
No respect until we win it all, I guess...

They were almost sighing each time they finished a sentence about the Blues... Pains them to even have to talk about us... LOVE IT!!!

Love the analysts sighing. Really hoping the boys have their hardhats on for at most, 14 more games...

Pains Bettman even worse.

I don't know about all that. While the off ice idiots, Bert and Ernie are just dopes if it's not the 'hawks or Rangers, the play by play and even Pierre/ other announcers were actually very pro-Blues IMHO for most of the Dallas series. Then again, I had to listen to about 1/2 dozen 'hawk broadcasts during the QF since CSN provides the idiots for the NBCSN we out of market folks get to watch

Tremendous hospitality deep in the heart of Texas. I ask for 1 shitty goal and we got...well a lot more than that. I was actually pretty worried that the only soft goal we'd be getting was the one Vladi had called back. Silly me!

Those clowns are "pro-whomever is winning at that particular moment" Thank God Hitch pulled Elliott in game six when he did, 'cause if I had to hear Pierre fluffing Lindy Ruff any more , I think I would have needed a new TV for game seven. Milbury couldn't be a bigger douche-nozzle if he tried... I think Jones is OK... it just sucks that you can't have your home-team's announcers at this stage of the play-offs. I really don't give a shit which high school, program, or province the players come from. Imagine that the great Dan Kelly was still alive, and we had to trade his play-by-play for this....rant suspended

I'm glad that the Blues scored enough to take the outcome out of the zebra's hands.

that wouldn't change anything. all we'd hear about is how we had a clear path, all the really difficult teams were eliminated/had injured players/etc., whatever.

i miss bucci and the real NHL2Nite.
