Re: GDT: Minnesota Wild vs Your St Louis Blues - 7:00 4/29
51As long as they get the two points, it really doesn't matter. They aren't chasing the Wild in the standings.

Kerber was talking about Kostin getting in there. Wouldn’t it be something if he could spark the team even more?

Bortuzzo is a must have in starting lineup.

There was some squawking on here about his leadership when they kept losing. Schenn got in a couple fights (but didn't snap out of his goalless draught) and people started saying he should've gotten the C. I like Schenn of course, but ROR is a great captain.T.C. wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 6:58 amwho says that?Dave's a mess wrote: Thu Apr 29, 2021 9:53 pm Just remember, ROR scores game winners all the time, never takes a shift off and plays tremendous defense, but he's not a good captain because he doesn't punch enough guys.
You hear it everywhere. People are saying it.

That example would never happen to a pro hockey team.T.C. wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 12:23 pm well, look - i expect a captain to lead by example. ROR plays with grit and isn't afraid to mix it up when he takes exception. i don't expect (or want) him to go looking for fights every shift, that's not his job. but sticking up for teammates and himself is absolutely a prime directive. say, for example, the other team's captain were to throw him to the ice and, i don't know, sit on him. i would expect him to take exception to that and make it understood that was not going to happen to our team. and i am confident he would do so if necessary. but, more importantly, i am confident his teammates would make sure he didn't have to. perhaps, again merely hypothetical here, just pulling something out of thin air, unlike what we've seen in the recent past.
I like him best when he plays his heavy game. He could be a catalyst to get The Blues on a tear, like Reaves.BillP. wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 1:16 amKerber was talking about Kostin getting in there.

That would be me. I like both guys but I still think Schenn is better suited for the Captains job. More vocal. More emotional. O'Reilly is a lot more cerebral and his leadership would be the same without the C.Dave's a mess wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 9:44 amThere was some squawking on here about his leadership when they kept losing.

This is true. He strikes me as a real jedi style leader, not a rah-rah type. I would have gladly endorsed schenn for the C for this reason. But “prefer” is a strong word for me here, i think either was a good choice.BluesSK wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 5:49 pmThat would be me.
