Let's Go Blues

I realize it doesn't and won't ever get called, but was hoping Backes would get 2 for embellishment for throwing his head back on the play where Eddy hit in the chest with his stick. Eddy has to be smarter there. He HAS to remember that he and Backes have been at odds in nearly every Blues/Bruins ga...

I remember the NBC announcers during Game 1 of the WCF commenting how the Blues had not seen speed like the Sharks were showing in their 6-3 win over StL.

The Blues adjusted.

I expect them to adjust again in the Finals.

Basically all of my colleagues have jumped on the Blues bandwagon. I'm not sure if that's partly a function of just trying to be supportive of me or just a natural by-product of the inborn hatred from New Yorkers towards everything Boston. More than one has been crystal clear that they "really real...

How sick are we going to get of Brad Marchand before this series is said and done?

I woke up for work like any other Wednesday, but I'm still dreaming.....right???

Our Blues are in the FINALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm nervous and encouraged all at the same time. Unlike in years past, when this team has had the chance to put away teams: Jets and Stars, this postseason, they've drastically outplayed their opponent, and done just that. True, the Stars went to Double OT but that was mainly because Bishop was pla...

All that bitching you guys did after the “hand pass” sure worked out. Hits to the head everywhere and not one penalty. I hope the sharks come out and just take the knees out from everyone that way when you play the bruins you have to forefit cuz you cant field a team. Gfys I never complained about ...

Definition of "luck": where opportunity and preparation intersect.

Relax. The series isn't over yet.

It's hockey. Not cancer. Enjoy the ride.

Revenge for 1970? I'm on board.

That's definitely what I have in mind.

I SO want the Blues to meet and beat the Bruins in the SCF.

I'm expecting the Sharks to come out strong. But, I also see the Blues countering with sustained momentum shifts, as well. I think it was Jax, who in an interview yesterday, said he thinks the Sharks and Blues are going to take turns at delivering 5-10 minutes worth of punches at each other the rest...

If the power play wasn’t a complete bucket of suck this team would be unbeatable. Well either way the objective should have been to split the first two, and split they did. Let’s take care of business at home now. My thoughts exactly. Not only do I not recall the last time we've scored a powerplay ...

That last goal of ours was like a slow motion car crash. :lol: I loved it for at least couple of reasons - Sunny got rewarded for playing a solid game and Steener got himself a really nice assist. He played a good game and was fun to see him get creative on that rush and set up Sunny for the goal. ...

If they can manage not to turn the puck over against what is a very aggressive forecheck from San Jose, they should generate odd-man breaks behind that over-aggressive forecheck. That's the way the Sharks have played ever series. Be aggressive on the offensive side of the blueline, try to force tur...

Yet, the story gaining more and more early traction in the media and socials appears to be that of Jumbo embarking on his opportunity to finally get to the Finals (again) and win it all.

Amazing...simply amazing. Add this one to the growing list of awesome Blues moments.

No idea how it's going to go, but considering I'll only be able to watch the 1st period before I have to go get my wife at the airport I'm expecting one of the most epic Blues games in franchise history. And I will have missed it. :( :goblues: :letsgoblues: :goblues: Can you at least listen to Kerb...
