3rd Period

Ducks second best so far this game. Blues heavily outshooting, outchanceing, and outfighting Anaheim. However the game is far closer than it should be, for the second game in a row the blues allow a goal late in the second period that will drastically effect how the third period will be played. Beachemin leads all players in ice time w/ 19:22.Kent huskins is the anaheim push on offense now. some blues (wouldn't this be a jammer job if he could accomplish it) needs to shut down huskins. period. Blues maligned power play is very much alive. and i'll be enjoying the game more.typing less.
enjoy!

5 minutes gone. Ducks get power play. chcnaces on both end for the first 5, blues had more chances, ducks might have had the best one with a hard shot from the mid slot.
blues kill of penalty. ducks had their power play set up only infrequently. Best shot came shorthanded as a diving clear lead to a Martin Rucinsky post hitting shot.
yet another duck powerplay. again blues keep ducks frm setting up except for one great todd marchant chance downlow that legace was the equal too.
yet another another powerplay. they havent announced it yet, might be 4 minutes. down under 10 minutes left in the third period. blues really need to STOP TAKING PENALTIES. especially ones were duck's players bleed on the way to their bench
only two minutes. bleeding player ran into high stick. maybe justice. goal called and it is being reviewed but it should be no goal, no goal it is
forgot to mention jackman has been back and playing, but with a plastic face shield due to the bleeding he did while pounding May-- who has not been back

Power play over, scrum developed in front of net. nothing serious except the face-off comes outside the zone. woot!
Actually scrum (which blues start) leads to blues power play wootx2
blues take a penalty mid-way through there powerplay.
4x4 followed by duck power play. 5 minute-ish mark.
blue kill another power play. again the blues had a better chance shorthanded (2 on 1) than the ducks generated with the man advantage. 3:30 left
empty netter by kariya. game all but done

Jesus Christ. I leave for like 3 hours and what do I find when I come back? Some sort of gay hockey porn.
CT – Thanks for jumping in the breach with a live blog of some sort.
CT – Memo: less gay hockey porn next time. Like 100% less.

This was a particularly satisfying result. I was down after losing to the Wild [Things].
Especially because the Ducks fancied themselves hard checkers and tough customers in in their Cup-winning 06-07.
I still miss Pronger.
I was stuck by DirectTV with the Anahein feed. I shouted at the TV when ex NHL goalie now color man Hayden vilified JD King for running over Beyatchamin, who was playing the puck just inside the Blues zone withhis head down as King stuck his shoulder into his head. It was a good example of a contact-to-the-head penalty that should exist but doesn’t. #23 popped right up, too. Wasn’t he a toss-in on the deal that brought Prongs to SoCal?
Kariya being a Blue is like X-mas AM every game. At least potentially.
Who is next? C-bus away?

Randy Carlyle’s a joke. Sends Brad May out to take out a key player on the other team. That’s why May still has a job – take out a key player from the opposition.
Oh, and Randy…
If you’re going to send out your goon (Parros) to put a spark into your team, better make sure that he doesn’t get his ass kicked.

One more thing… did Travis Moen take Steve Avery lessons?

i would just like to point out that that picture came up in the same yahoo image search that the patrick roy (which was more in line for what i was looking forr) came up. kinda figured it had to be used somewhere and if i didnt web it, it would show up a seperated at birth and then people would have paid to get queasy :)
http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?p=no+hockey+fights&ei=UTF-8&js=1&ni=18&fr=sbc-web&b=19
but you explain those search results :/
yea i aint live blogging again probably, as others have stated before… crappy job and crappier way to try to enjoy a great game..
and how come i get all the rules? no “gay hockey porn” no “top 11 lists about larry pleau’s wife”. and i have to “stay 2 miles away from brad lee at all times”.
seems increasingly unfair
i think sean needs to set up something he can type on his cell phone that shows up here.

OK, I don’t remember issuing a “no top 11s about Larry Pleau’s wife” edict, but still I stand by it.
And no, not a crappy job by any means. Live blogging home games for this site, when most of the rabid readers are AT the home games, is a lonely, lonely job. You don’t get any replies until after the game and everyone rolls home.
Oh, and as far as I can tell, Brad Lee and Marcus Pettersson are our Blues Live Bloggers of note, not me. Away games seem to be the prime spots to take.

I’d do another live blog. Problem is I don’t get any games over here.
By the way, it seemed like one hell of a game. BLOOD!

I don’t think the courts ever processed the restraining order papers, so Trauma, we’re good.
And as you found out, live blogging can be a chore. It’s definitely a different way to “enjoy” a game.
