Not as good as his first two games but I think it was just the whole line last night. Freaking Schwartz is frustrating as hell at times.

That was a weird game last night. By shot attempts, scoring chances, and high danger chances the Blues should have been winning 4-0 heading into the third. Crawford really kept the Hawks in it until the third period.

I don’t want to trash Faulk, as I’m hoping that game winner against a rival does a lot for his confidence, but he was on the ice for all three goals against. Don’t think any of them were particularly his fault, but he and JBo just don’t seem to work well together for whatever reason. I’d like to see them try Faulk-Petro again. Don’t think they gave that pairing enough of a shot early on.

Also glad to see Berube keep Thomas at center even with Bozak playing on the line. Bozak clearly had a good game playing wing too.

Also, where did De La Rose pull that backhand from? In general I feel like he’s improved quite a bit from his first few games here.

Makes me wish I recorded the game, I'll not make that mistake again.

Just watched NHL NETWORK trying to see the highlights, 40 minutes into on the fly they gave the Stanley Cup Champions about 45 seconds of air time after an epic comeback. That to me is journalistic malpractice.

Here you go:

Full five minute recap!

I saw it, I just thought they would have some stats, like how many teams have comeback this year. you have to admit last night was an anomaly in hockey.

Since moving to center, his game has improved significantly.

Finally checked out the game. Entertaining as hell. Should have been up like 4-0 after the first. Really appreciate how this team never says die and keeps coming even when things look lost.

The great thing is that if DLR can take over the 4th line center roll and play well, the Blues can move that beautiful beast Sundqvist up in the lineup, and he makes any line better. DLR has size, sipped, and good hockey sense. Maybe that Fabbri trade isn’t so bad after all!
