Can't believe they're only 6 points behind Vegas and they got 1 game left with them.
Vegas has been pretty pedestrian since January.
But the Blues are a nice team full of supporting cast players.
Trouble is they don't have anyone to support - ha
This team needs 1 or 2 elite players in it's lineup.
My hope is Dvorsky = Barkov Snuggerud = Pastrnak
We can dream right?

obviously, the primary takeaway is that the jerseys are fucking awful.

secondarily, i liked kessel's game, from what i saw. what binner did last night was absolutely wild. when he's on fire, he's on fire. only thing that would have made it better was a goal, which he almost had an opportunity to go for. neighbors was all over the place again, which i like. i didn't mind what i saw of krug & kessel together. that tip-goal from below the goal line was one of the craziest demonstrations of physics i've seen in a long time. wild amount of skill there. i actually saw a couple of hits, too, which was surprising. that tripping call was ridiculous, looked like incidental contact to me on both parts, but whatever. with 300 refs on site, what else would you expect? no whistles for an extended period to start the 3rd was fantastic.

Neighbors perhaps, but I think Toropchenko will be too much "chaos on ice" (I mean that in a good way!) to be considered a 'leader.' Certainly an 'energy' player and fan-favorite, though!
