The JBo-Parayko pairing is SUPER solid again as well. With both pairings clicking as well as they could be, and Dunn-Bortuzo/Gunnarson as a 3rd pairing, we really could have the best D-Corps in the league.bradleygt89 wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:25 pmGood call coach! Yeah, Faulk looks real good tonight and has played much better last few games. Love the D pairs tonight.UMSLBlues12 wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:21 pm I said after the last game that Berube should try the Faulk-Petro pairing again and he did and they’re playing well. Basically what I’m saying is that I could coach the Blues
Yeah I don't think anyone else is close with Faulk playing like he can. We know what JBo and Parayko can do, Petro is Petro and the 3rd pairing is as good as it gets as far as 3rd pairings go.RAFritchey wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:46 pmThe JBo-Parayko pairing is SUPER solid again as well.

Really impressed with this young man. Instead of sulking and pouting because he wasn't getting called up, he worked hard to improve the things that Chief wanted from him, and it's paying off. Last year he was definitely a defensive liability. No more. He's become a much better all around player, and his offensive game is just going to get better and better.Robb_K wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:25 pm I don't think Kyrou will be going back to The Rampage. The Blues need goals, and we've seen Kyrou playing responsibly in all zones.
Their intensity was excellent tonight!Robb_K wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:37 pm Blues WIN 5-2!!!!
Blues WIN 5-2!!!!
13th comeback win so far this season!!! Playing like Champions!!!!
He's a backdoor man.insideout wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:39 pm Kyrou makes it 4 backdoor goals. Avs have some video to watch next practice.
He looks like he has filled out some too.barnburner wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:56 pmReally impressed with this young man.

I'm a believer in making people earn their way, and this youngster is doing just that! He's going to be special.
How do those stats compare to the line's performance when they were OFF the ice?UMSLBlues12 wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 6:46 amThe Sundqvist-ROR-Perron line had 64% share of the shot attempts when they were on the ice and out chanced the opposition 8-4 when they were on the ice. ...
That line did great last night (obviously). All three played their game to a T.

And they were up against Mackinnon’s line most of the night. That’s really impressive
Yeah, he said in an interview, that he worked on adding some muscle because he knew if he was going to fitCaptSMRT wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 6:53 amHe looks like he has filled out some too.barnburner wrote: Mon Dec 16, 2019 9:56 pmReally impressed with this young man.

Haha reading that thread, those Avs fans are pretty overconfident. "Playoff Mackinnon would eat Parayko for breakfast". They clearly didn't watch Parayko in the playoffs last year.NHLTIM wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 8:29 am The Avs game day thread was full of praise for the Blues last night.

Yeah, all he did was shut down the Jets top line, Seguin/Benn, the Sharks top line, and then after all that, the best line in hockey. But MacKinnon scored a bunch of goals on Mike Smith, so yeah, they're probably right.UMSLBlues12 wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 9:07 amHaha reading that thread, those Avs fans are pretty overconfident.

He's done more in his career than Erik Johnson ever will so anything in the future really doesn't matter.CaptSMRT wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 9:52 amWhat if Parayko turned into Erik Johnson?Dave's a mess wrote: Tue Dec 17, 2019 9:27 amYeah, all he did was shut down the Jets top line, Seguin/Benn, the Sharks top line, and then after all that, the best line in hockey.
