Flyers @ Blues GDT

PrintThe odds are in the Blues' favor that they will play a strong game tonight against Philadelphia. After all, the Flyers are a pretty damn good team. Therefore, the Blues probably won't play like crap.
If you look at the Blues' schedule this season, they've played well in games they had no business being competitive in and they've struggled against teams they should have handled without much effort. Thursday's disappointing loss to the Ottawa Senators was just the latest in a weird trend that has done as much as the team's injury problems to sink this season.
In just the second game on the schedule, the Blues lost to the New York Islanders, the odds on favorite to be drafting first overall in the NHL Entry Draft come this summer. The Blues have played the Los Angeles Kings three games this season. They've lost all three games. What's worse, none of them have been competitive. The combined score in the three losses is an astounding 15-5. The Kings are 20-20-7, tied for 12th in the Western Conference. The Blues are 0-2 against the Oilers, a team that seems to be more interested in getting its coach fired than winning games. Of course losses to Detroit and other top teams kind of threaten my theory, but I'll ignore that fact and keep moving on.
Tonight is the showdown of Sarah Palin's favorite NHL teams.
No idea the lines, who's starting in net or anything that's going on. Call us blissfully unaware. Fill up the comments. We'll see you soon.

Man i wish i could watch this game but my friend and i have been called upon to defend our beer pong title. Hopefully it will go better than the blues when they play crappy teams
You say 'Tomato', I say 'FUCK DETROIT', so lets call the season off
Kick some ass!

Antero Niittymaki is in net for the Flyers. 10-2-2 in his last 14, and 41 saves last night in Tampa.

Watch him closely...
…because I’m convinced that he’s the guy the Blues will go hard after in the off-season.

Here's
to hoping the game ends the same way as the first time the Blues met Nittymaki when he was with the Kings in 06-07.

—they’ve struggled against teams they should have handled without much effort.—
that’s a laugh. there’s no team in the league the blues could beat without much effort. don’t get me wrong, i like the site and the passion of those who inhabit it, but sometimes the false sense of entitlement here is overwhelming. its one thing to be devoted to the orginization, its another to feel slighted by a team posting a losing record that wasnt supposed to do anything this season anyway. remember, we were projected to finish well out of the playoffs by most so called experts even before the cascade of injuries washed over us. we’re a young team so we’re going to play streaky, inconsistent hockey, get over it and try to enjoy the season on a game by game basis. As fans we should be focusing on the growth and development of our team in the long run and understand that seasons like this have to happen before the corner can be turned. This season is different than the last two, there’s actually youth out there on the ice, it’s not just a ragtag bunch of 34 year old cast offs hacking it up out there, there is promise. It’s easy to say someting like “but we’ve been rebuilding for 3 years now” but we really haven’t, this has been the first true rebuilding year the blues have had since the lockout. Believe in the kids, enjoy the wins when they come and save up the griping about losses for when they actually mean something.
Not to be disrespectful, but if you’re going to tag our youth as being the reason for a streaky performance, I have to disagree. If anything, the worst, and most uninspired looking play of that game was brought to the table at the hands of some of our veterans. The Oshie, Berglund, Perron line played some very hard-fought, and sound minutes. My other objection to this is that I tend to think of streakiness in terms of missing the mark on a shot, or missing a pass. Streakiness should not be a lack of effort, and aside from a few shifts by our rookie and sophomore forwards, there seemed to be a real lack of the hustle that seems to almost always be present when the Blues meet the best teams in the league.
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are? - Satchel Paige
Think you would work on being a little more depressing there?
Perhaps if you hyped up the injuries more or maybe picked on the age of the more experienced members of the team more, you could pull it off. Sometimes I wonder how some of the so called “Blues Fans” that post online justify their qualifications as actual “fans”.
Why a fan, even a fan of hockey and not just the Blues, would post such a depressing montage like the one above, truly leaves me puzzled.

I had to explain to some folks over at VEB as to why I don’t want the Cardinals to sign Ben Sheets and don’t understand their obsession with him. Call me a loser if you want but . . . I’m a Cards fan first. I must admit.
Anyway, MCCLEMENT?! What in Jeebus got into HIM to score a goal?!

On Nittymaki going elsewhere--

Signing Biron as a UFA would be OK by me, too...

T.J. Oshie
Do we have a nickname for Oshie yet. If not I would like to propose Tommy Boy.
Let me explain. TJ creates a lot of chances (sales) but rarely ends up scoring. He also has those red cheeks like tommy boy when he lights the car on fire when trying to get a sale (new guys puking in the corner).
The good part is that eventually Tommy Boy goes off and gets his chicken wings which leads to him selling 1/2 a million brake pads which I believe would translate to a 50 goal season for oshie in the near future.
So, what do you think…
Its a funny story actually.
I think . . .
Osh-man Cometh and Teej have been the common ones. I usually go with the latter.
But if you want to call him Tommy Boy . . . go for it, bro!

Well . . .
The Note killed off an early 5-on-3.
Immediately followed by an odd-man rush that resulted in a goal by JAY FUCKING MCCLEMENT!
Janssen got into a scrap and, for all intents and purposes, won.
And Backes got a bullshit cross-check call.

Good news and bad news from Peoria...
The good news is, Steve Regier has two power-play goals tonight.
The bad news is, Ben Bishop can’t stop a beach ball with a snow shovel tonight. The Iowa “Yes, we ripped off the Rockford IceHogs’ logo” Chops have four goals on 18 goddamn shots…
The politics involved in giving Bishop all these starts, while Chris Holt rots on the bench with his 1.90 GAA and 93.5% save percentage…
(insert “rolling eyes” icon here)
It’s the same crap that drove Holt out of the Rangers’ organization, and it’s gonna end up pushing hin out of this one, too…

Thats a good thing
Its a funny story actually.
Woo Hoo another PP!

Philly is being outclassed so well on the ice tonight, they have no choice but to take stupid actions and get caught on the obvious.

Noticed in the game recap, Cam Jansen was next in line to beat Hartnell down at the end there.
(Just in case Jackman didn’t felt like hitting the showers early.)

Slower night than usual. But probably because a lot of folks were at the game, it being a Saturday night and all.
AWESOME effort by the Note. I wish they could replicate that for the games against bottom-feeders like Ottawa, Los Angeles, Dominik’s Fish Sticks and the like. (no offense, Dom.)

So I wasn’t around here… glad to see the place was hopping, even with me, Dooks, and Brad at the game. It was a good crowd (sellout?). A good number of Philly fans, which were booed at every opportunity, of course.
Excellent game. Total 180-degree difference from the Ottawa suck-fest.

Final thoughts
This is the team the Blues need to be to win games. Agressive, nasty and physical with a side of beatdown thrown in. Steen has some sweet passing skills but I’m becoming more ambivalent about him. I think, despite the great skill of Perron and the overall coolness of The Osh, that Berglund will be the best of three. I think he has more skill than Oshie and a better sense for the game than Perron, not to mention he’s bigger and has no problems using it. Word of wisdom for the day: Go to Square One and have the Imperial Stout. Took about three drinks for it to go on my top five all time beers.
Used to be Aaron, but some douchebag Celtics fan has that one already.
