First time I've ever started the GDT when there wasn't already one started before me, which I didn't notice!
Parayko starts off the game with a nice, hard drive from the point. So far both teams look a little tentative, although The Blues have had the best of things by a slight margin. Binnington in goal.

2So Thomas is out, and Schenn takes his place. I think they should do well at home vs. the slumping Jets. I hope Binnington will play well tonight. He's looked okay, so far. But, now, The Blues go on the PK.

3The Blues are 2 men short for a minute, and kill off the first one, with Binnington, Sundqvist, and Barbashev playing well, and then kill off the 2nd!!!

4Now, it's The Blues on The Power Play! And Svechnikov will not only get 2 minutes, but also a 10-minute misconduct!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
5Perron scores on a one-timer on a tic-tac-toe passing play from Krug and Tarasenko!!!! Blues lead 1-0!!!

6The Blues played well in The 1st Period getting the better of the puck possession, and good scoring chances, and survived being shorthanded by 2 players. Binnington has looked good, so far. Let's hope he keeps it up.

7Where is everyone???? No one wants to comment on tonight's game, at all?
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
8Start of The 2nd! The Perron, Saad Barbashev line is controlling the puck in The Jets' zone. Parayko takes a wickedly hard one-timer from the slot! Hellebuyck makes a great save on it!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
9McEachern gets on a breakaway and takes a shot towards the lower right, but Hellebuyck makes a whipping fast glove save on it. He's been good in net tonight, but his team's defence is letting him down.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
10Saad and Mikkola on the 2 on one! But Mikkola overskates the drop-back pass! But I'm really glad to see Mikkola jumping into the offensive plays.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
12Lucky that Stastny fanned slightly on that shot, as he hade most of the net open on that one!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
14Dubois and Ehlers get a 2 on 0, almost no mchance for Binnington, and they tie the game at 1.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
16This is what the Blues get for taking things easy, and not pushing the play, and letting The Jets "hang around" in this game. These 2 points are valuable. They'd better start playing seriously.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
17The Blues will go back on The Power Play! Let's get the lead back!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
18Tarasenko, on a 2 on 1 with Schenn, skates into the slot and shoots a wrister that zips by Hellebuyck!!! Tie-breaker in the last minute!!!! HIS 20TH!!!
Blues lead 2-1!!!!
Blues lead 2-1!!!!

GREAT hustle Robb!
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
20Connor beats Binnington, but luckily for The Blues, he hits the post!
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
21Wow! I thought Binnington came over to the post late on that wraparound, but he just got his skate to graze it and keep it out! Turns out Binnington WAS beat, but a Blues skater McEachern? block it, changing the angle enough.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
22And now another Blues' breakdown, and The Jets blast the puck by Binnington for the lead goal.
Re: GDT: 3/13 Jets at Blues, 6 pm BSM
24Toropchenko should have shot on that drive, instead of trying to make another pass!
