Super save by Binnington on a breakaway! The Blues need to start skating, winning puck races, and getting some poise and protecting the puck.

[Portland Blues]

The good thing is we're only down by 1 after looking putrid for half the game.

[glen a richter]

Now would be a good time to remember how to score.

[Portland Blues]

Another turnover by 19 leads to a Dallas goal.

Saw that goal against coming for the last few minutes. Pathetic.

[glen a richter]

Blues being Blues, at least they gained a split and got home ice back. This one is a lost cause.

[Robb_K]

Nice play by Sundqvist to draw that penalty. The Blues have GOT to get back into the game on this power play!

[Portland Blues]

We can't even hang on to the puck up a man.

[Portland Blues]

I wish Thomas would look to shoot a little more instead of always looking to pass.

[Robb_K]

Perron hits the post!

[ibldbl]

Brightside....I can get some sleep.

[Portland Blues]

Well, that should just about do it. Now we have to listen to the NBC announcers rave about Dallas the rest of the game.

[Portland Blues]

Sweet dive by Bishop.

[heff]

The difference in skill players is palpable, even in the games we've won. SSDY

[Robb_K]

Perron DID hit Bishop, BUT Bishop flopped down so flagrantly the refs did The Stars a favour by not giving him an "acting penalty". Thank goodness they didn't have the "nerve" to call Perron for that tap. Their children and grandchildren would have been ashamed for life.

[Robb_K]

Good kill. Now get one goal at a time, and get back into this game. Start it on this power play!

[Portland Blues]

This gal commenting on the NBC feed makes Bernie sound like a genius.

[Portland Blues]

Thomas!

[Robb_K]

Finally! Good forechecking and hard skating keeps the puck in the O-Zone, and Thomas scores!!! Blues trail by 2!!!

[Portland Blues]

This urgency would have been awesome to see sometime in the first 52 minutes of the game.
