*******************************
I have had the crappiest day so far so I'm fully expecting a disappointing loss to round it out.
Hawks lose 3-0
Big shock to see all the negativity on this board again...
Score first and they will win. Blues can't really implement their system when trailing. Force their ****ing hands!
7-3 Hawks. Let's screw up that GAA average.
reading around these boards...anyone else find Blues fans really cocky now? They are having one good regular season.
Please dismantle hitchcock's robot army with no remorse. Hawk's 7-0.
Yes. But they have every right to be until their team fails, which as of today has not happened. Personally, I see the Blues flopping come springtime, unable to score when they need to... but we'll see.
Bollig squaring up on Reaves, he's outsized. Good luck, son.
Bollig won that one, nice intense fight and professional ending there at the end.
Blues score. They are controlling this game early on. BTW, Lepisto and Olsen are terrible!
Inevitable goal. The blues have basically been on the power play since the game started.
Blues commentary team is the most annoying ****ing pair in league history, I've decided.
There was a vote on best tandem and they actually were 3rd...the more you know.
So screaming and crowing with all the unrestrained glee of Rosie O'Donnell falling into a cake factory is popular and professional?
Give me a break.
lol. They are absolutely terrible. Especially Panger. One of the worst in the league easily. I watch a ton of Blues games so I know how truly awful they are.
1-0 Blues
Great, now we can watch the most boring hockey ever.
My god what I wouldn't give for Stalberg to have hands.
I think we are going to get curb stomped in this one fellas. Blues are just too tough for the Hawks.
Looks like men vs boys out there... Embarrissing
The blues don't even look like they're trying to play defense and the hawks can't get through.
Not impressed with St. Louis at this point. It's all about the Hawks failing to clear the zone.
Man a Blues v Preds playoff series could be brutal to watch if they finish 4/5
Sharp... wtf.
How does that not go in?
jesus christ! i was up in arms....before slowly lowering them in shame
Last year I watched almost every Blues game. This year I put them all on at some point(usually DVRed) so that I can take a nap. Probably the most boring team in the NHL now with Hitchcock. Can't wait for them to inevitably fail and he gets fired 2-3 years from now.
Keith blows, as does the power play.
Does any player in the NHL fumble the puck on passes, stickhandling and everything else more than Keith? Don't think it is possible.
Perron throws Seabs down like a little girl
Hopefully that wakes the Hawks up
Hawks seriously look drunk
Dirty play by Oshie
How the **** is that not a penalty??????? ****ing ********
Oshie goes after Kane ,,, God what a little punk
The Blues play hockey like I play Mario Kart
Every little bump counts
What ******** elbow from Oshie and Seabrook goes off. ****ing terrible.
TJ Oshie with the usual interference at the blueline that doesn't get called. Surprise, surprise.
how is this team so much better than the hawks?
why the **** wasn't that a penalty on oshie? he threw his arm up directly at kane's head for one and kane was also nowhere near in that puck. ********
This game is a circus.
Refs+Blues take the lead
2-0.
It's only going to get worse. Team is pretty clearly outmatched offensively.
I'd love to play the Blues in the 1st round. They have 1st round losers all over them. Can't wait to see them crumble in the playoffs.
C'mon. Seriously. The Blues look bigger, faster and more skilled to this point. I get cheering for the home team but lets not get blinded in the process.
2-0 Blues after 1
Hawks being outplayed and manhandled
I would give anything to have John Scott in this game to just beat the living hell out of Backes.
Hossa is playing like a little punk that doesn't want anything to do with this physical game.
Figures the Hawks would come out with a stinker after winning a few games. They always do. This has nothing to do with the Blues, the Hawks can beat them at will. Too bad that will and concentration just isn't there(at least for the 1st period).
I'm not sure how much more I can tolerate St. Louis coming out on top over Chicago teams. There are fewer fans more smug and that radiate entitlement than those that reside in St. Louis. And sadly the majority of their major fan base lives in Illinois.
Blues have a great D with some real nice young talent
That is big key to there success. They robbed Avs IMO when they traded EJ for Shattenkirk
Shattenkirk is better player now and in future
Yeah, Blues are a good team. This is not the same kind of team as the Preds that we beat in 2010. This Blues team isn't an offensive juggernaut, but they do have a lot more talent at F in guys like Backes, McDonald, Perron, and Oshie. They are a pretty deep team, especially at D and in goal. Playing them in 1st rd could definitely gas the team and you could definitely lose a few bodies in a 7 game series against the Blues.
On a lighter note...I just programmed my Iphone 4s to call me 'Beergod' from now on...
IMO Blues would be brutal matchup for who ever gets them
I think a Blues/Preds 1st round matchup is inevitable given the race right now
If that is case I think both teams beat each other up pretty good in 7 game series (Low scoring) and that who ever gets them in 2nd round will take them out
Reaves to the box. Time for another 2 minutes of no shots on goal and the hawks skating around their own zone.
Reaves....what a ****. Awful hit. That is just ********.
lol Reeves is a punk.
Wow what a god awful embarrassment of a PP the Hawks have
Sobotka SH goal ,,,, Brutal D
3-0 Blues
That's the game. I'm done.
divisional game on the road and you can't even get up to play it? What the hell is wrong with these stiffs?
Disagree that the Hawks don't match up well with the Blues. I just can't see their success continuing in the playoffs.
They remind me of the Phoenix Coyotes of the last 2 years. Once teams match their intensity they are simply outmatched. Coyotes have gotten knocked out the 1st round even with their solid record and Blues will be the same IMO. I think any team beats the Blues except maybe Dallas or LA if they make it.
Fire Quenneville!
Game over. I was hopeful they would come out of the locker room with some fire, but they somehow quit even harder. Totally gave up.
this is a spot where id love for q to call a random timeout to just chew the **** out of the entire team. there is no energy or focus out there right now.
Tons of great young talent on the Blues with tremendous goaltending. I think they have a brighter future than we do.
If it looks like the team has no energy, it's cause the Blues suck it right out of a team.
Not to mention they are freakin stocked with high end propects. At least 3 of which are top level guys
They have better top end talent with Shwartz and Tarasenko but we do have a deeper pool. None of their forwards will be as good as Kane, Toews, Hossa though.
lepisto with a leg/ankle injury. Fine by me, he's been terrible.
I know I'm not supposed to, but I like the Blues team, just not when we play them.
Blues just dominating in every facet of game
The Story of the night is the Lone Blackhawk Indian trying to wrestle a GIANT BLUE BEAR!
Man I am getting sleepy ,, Blues suck the life out of games
Hawks need a faster transition/breakout game to expose the Blue's lack of speed....not even close to happening
Polak is the most underated dman in NHL
impressed with st louis's overall game. solid d, good forward support, solid goal tending.
Hawks too PP ,, Please decline it
This is one of those games you need to just throw puck on net because Blues aren't letting you set anything up
Hossa is drunk. Has to be.
I'm actually laughing the Hawks look so bad.
Blues announcers just said we have 2 SOG in all 4 PPs. Is that even possible?
If the Blues are boring assome say, i wish we were more boring. They are just outworking, outhitting, outskating, outeverythinging the Hawks. Looking at the standings makes me think this isnt some fluke Blues game
I never thought I'd say it but I miss Carcillo in a game like this.
Tip your cap to the Blues.
Right when I'm about to shut the computer down, and get some much needed sleep... they pull me back in.
We definitely put the "special" in special teams.
This offensive "system" sucks. Why the hell do you send all three forwards below the goal line, when most of your d-men can't get the puck on net consistently? So nobody's in scoring position most of the time. Fire Quenneville!
Actually, Cory Stillman is lined up to buy the Blues, looks like that deal will be closed soon.
