  1. Methinks Rathbone is gonna be ready to injected into the lineup sooner rather than later. I imagine there's a good chance he actually starts next season with the big club, and I believe he'll have a solid first season. Dude's a gem. Between him, Juolevi, Rafferty, and already having Hughes and Myers on the big club, I think we're in pretty good shape as far as puck movers go, so I'm really not interested in Barrie. What we really need is a big, physical blueliner capable of shutting down other team's top guys while putting up a few points of his own. Essentially someone that can replace Edler, but maybe a bit meaner.
  2. Can y'all not? We just knocked the cup champs out and y'all be bickering like schoolchildren.
  3. I don't know why we've been so hesitant to put Gaudette on the wing before this game. The guy is capable of putting up top 6 numbers, but because our center situation looks the way it does, with the top 2 set in stone and the bottom 2 needing to be more defensively minded, he just hasn't really fit. I'd be super interested to see what he could do on Bo or even Petey's wing for a decent chunk of time.
  4. If we can beat the cup champs/conference leaders, we can beat anyone. Let's go all the &^@#ing way!

  5. Glad to see Juice showing Boeser some love for how his game as evolved. He's a smart guy.
  6. Bieksa giving Boeser some love for how his game has evolved since his first season. His strength and tenaciousness when it comes to battling. It sucks that Boes hasn't gotten his wrist shot back since his big injury, but good players are able to compensate, and that's exactly what he's done. Glad to see Juice giving him some credit. That guy knows his $&!#
  7. Wasn't expecting this type of performance from the Blues tonight. That said, credit to our boys for jumping on 'em. Nice to see Boes get one, and nice to see the bottom 6 guys contributing. A lot of those "terrible signings" aren't looking so terrible right now. Also, starting Binnington might be the worst coaching decision I've seen in recent memory. Let's just make sure not to let them back in it now. GO CANUCKS, GO!
  8. If the refs are going to let Schenn get away with cross checking Petey after losing a faceoff, they damn well better let Beagle get away with reaching his arm out.
  9. Considering what the refs let the Blues get away with, that call on Beagle was light af.
  10. Welp, between the final 3 games of the Minny series and the first couple games of this one, it was a good time. Was nice to have something to distract us from all the bull$&!# going on in the world. Le sigh.
  11. If the league is OK with the refs setting this kind of precedent for hits in the numbers into the boards, they're proving that they don't give a $&!# about head shots/concussions/etc. I hope somebody says as much. I'm getting way too angry over this game. Might need to tune out. Absolutely fuming.
  12. This is the worst reffing I have ever seen. Sutter hit right in the numbers and we end up with the double minor. Complete bull$&!#.
  13. Can someone with more knowledge of other team's prospects than myself come up with a comparable deal for Hughes so people will realize how absurd this proposal is?
  14. Before these playoffs started I was of the mindset these playoffs would have an asterisk beside them no matter what. Now that we're in the thick of it, and with an uncertain future ahead of us, I'm all in. Let's see how far we can take this thing!

      the quality of play has been excellent in every series, save maybe a few of the round robin games.

       

      the intensity seems to really be up, I think due to the fact that the players can all hear each other really well. I wish we had a feed with the trash talk. 

  15. One of the best defensemen in the league for three completely unproven commodities? Hard pass by both Dallas and Buffalo.
  16. Where's the photoshopping? I just see a regular picture of Tyler Myers.
  17. If Toffoli is ready for this series I just hope to god Green doesn't split the Lotto Line up again. Miller Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Toffoli
  18. This gave me a chuckle.
