Sunday Links: "STILL Fuck Detroit (and fluky goals)" Edition

by Poor College Student on Nov 29, 2009 6:00 AM CST

Some losses piss me off more than others, especially when the Blues play the type of game that deserves a "W." Did they cough up a lead? Sure, but tell me that "shot" that Zetteberg tied it up on goes in more than 2% of the time and I'll sell you some quality real estate in the middle of the Sahara. Fuck!

Blues News:

Blues get a point. *Cue the "much rejoicing" Holy Grail noise.*
Backes goes from "Get out of a rut" to "Keep going"
JR recaps last night. Seriously, Fuck Detroit.
Bernie Miklasz asks for an encore of the fun bunch from last season.
Mason, Perron, Oshie, and Tkachuk make this edition of NHL Weekly Highlights.

NHL News:

Puck Daddy's Top 10 stories of the last decade. Number 1 should not be a surprise.
Isles GM Garth Snow doesn't like the term "rebuilding." Been there, done that.
Caps blow a 2 goal lead but come back to win. If only that coulda been us.
Saturday's scores.
Sunday's slate. Only 2 games.
Fight fight fight! The second video is better, FYI.

Video:

As for Slumpbusting, maybe Berglund could use a look at this video that's made its way around the internets. Also, I could use a pick-me-up after losing to the ~~Swedes~~ Wings (Fun Fact of the Day: This video was my first Fanshot after the switch to SBNation. Back then, we didn't have daily links.)"

Blue Jackets best be beat to shit on Monday. Averagejoe is back to get you through the Monday to Friday grind. Send him your best internet finds at gametimelinks (at) gmail.com

Agreed

Game finished at almost 4am over here…I went to bed angry. Woke up still angry.

I think I’ve actually discovered a new level of hatred for all things Detroit.

They really need to air that video on the Jumbotron.

it would get the crowd a lot more pumped than seeing Oshie’s discarded stick following him around.

I once shot a man just to see him die...then I got distracted and missed it.

I'm getting really tired of playing the 1-forechecker thing for 10 minutes with the lead

The times when we play well are when we forecheck hard and keep it in the other end…….why exactly would we do everything we can to not play that way for 20% of the game? We keep giving up late 3rd period goals trying to play the risk averse trap when that’s not our game at all. Yes it was a fluke goal, but Helm missed two open nets in there etc. Playing defense for 10 straight minutes is hard to do.

Not afraid to nitpick
