Two More Points, One Point Out

PrintI don't know the last time I left a hockey game feeling this wiped out. This team is giving us our money's worth every time out at this point. Beating Vancouver was huge and a great confidence win for the Note, too.
A few topics for your discussion regarding tonight's big win over the visiting Canucks:
- David Backes' emergence has taken a back seat to the story of the Kid Line lately, but he is a force to be reckoned with on virtually every shift. I'm sure Canucks management spent a lot of tonight's game wishing that the Blues had not matched the offer sheet they extended to him this summer.
- Speaking of the Kid Line, they continued to be totally dynamic tonight. As one person said to me during the intermission, "they play a puck-possesion game just like the Red Wings do."
- King of St. Louis TJ Oshie seems to be getting better and better every game. Tonight the crowd started chanting his name when he wasn't even on the ice. And it's not just hype, because he is always around the puck and making things happen.
- Speaking of chants, the new "We Want Play-Offs!" clapper made it's appearance several times tonight. Our own Brad Lee contends that it's a very jinxy thing to be chanting. I don't know if it is or not, but I didn't participate. As I told Brad, I've been a Blues fan long enough to know that a chant like that is inviting the Canucks to score a goal to tie the game. A goal that will probably be scored by Pavol Demitra just to drive the irony knife deeper into our collective gut.
No post-game interviews yet, so just bask in this beauty of a goal:
Edit: here's the post-game interviews with David Backes, TJ Oshie and Chris Mason. Note that Oshie is compared to both Superman and Michael Jordan during the course of the interviews and no one bats an eye.

i enjoyed
the ‘refs you suck’ chant the most….probably because im slightly more evil than carnie
You say 'Tomato', I say 'FUCK DETROIT', so lets call the season off
I can't recall such a gang rape by the refs
No offer of even a reach around

The Oshie chant after the BACKES goal was pretty crazy, haha. I mean, Oshie had the assist and has been kicking ass, but I agree with you, let’s give a little credit to Backes.
Also, I feel it’s worth mentioning that tonight I sat next to the loudest man I’ve ever heard. I think my eardrum has ruptured. Sec 307, Row E, Seat 7. You’ve been warned.
Thanks again for the paper, gallagher! It was nice to meet you guys tonight!
Was that the let's go blues chant guy?
yelling until his voice was hoarse? I’m in 306…
Long Live The King!
Sadly, I missed the game tonigtht
One of my Rec teams was busy anally raping (systematically of course) our most hated league foe.
I watch that Oshie goal and it gives me an erection. Solid as a rock too. Not just a chubber

just back
Great game
mixed feelings about the “We want play-offs” chant…
was a big fan of sitting in section 309 today, lots of great fans there getting into it… starting the Oshie chant when he was sitting on the pine.
Oshie was fucking awesome, big goal to get them going, big assist to spring the SH goal, and some massive hits..

Phoenix knocks off Edmonton in regulation......think that deserves a.....
“howl…howl…howl!!!!” - imagine the annoying noise that comes from the P.A. system down in Phoenix after a Coyotes goal
it was amazing
hearing 19,000 fans chanting “ref you suck” was truly heartwarming. when everybody was chanting we want playoffs, i almost cried because i realised that we have come so far this year and continue to turn heads. we will win the cup, the question is how many times in the next five years, lol

They just kick the door in
Chant away.

Where's the option for
Who gives a shit what they were yelling…THEY WERE YELLING!!!!
That’s the most jacked up I’ve heard a Blues crowd. Ever. And it was magnificent.

Who's got a pic of Oshie's mahvalous goal?

Post game interviews are up now
Is that miley cyrus playing in the locker room………….? I honestly have no idea. But it’s something that sounds like fail.
Chris Mason does not approve.
Best part of the Oshie goal
was pointed out by Dom in the GDT and now I can’t stop watching it. The move 74 makes at the blueline causes the Canucks blueliner to blow himself up and remove himself from the play. Incredible.
On top of that he makes Luongo look sooo bad on this play. Just unreal.
I thought you were wiped
At least I wrote a story for 8:30 in the morning. What’d you do, start on the paper or something crazy?

random thing that I should mention
So because it was student night, i jumped on the opportunity to drag friends to the Scott. My ticket was just a single b/c student tix that were together were sold out by 6:20 after being on sale starting at 6. My ticket happened to be 5th row, 6 feet out from the goal, blues attack twice end. $20 for a ticket that usually costs $75 and goes up to $95 for those darn premium games.
Thanks Blues

re: Backes, man
Shit yes. I was glad the Blues matched but pissed the Canucks overpaid* on the offer sheet … now I’m not so sure it was an inflated salary. And now the move to center has just amplified his awesomeness.
*pretty sure Backes is going to kill me now
