What an ending to the Blues / Kings game!!!!

OMG yes. Yes it was.

[Naples39]

Weird Kings game, of which I saw most.

It seemed like the entire game was played in LA's crease, but I missed the end of regulation and discovered it was in OT. In OT, Blues looked like a different team.

After playing a great game, Quick totally let STL off the hook. Could've been a devastating loss for STL to dominate like that and lose.

The last 8 minutes of the third period is where the Kings picked up their second gear and realized that they had to do something. Blues were very good at blocking shots. If it wasn't for Quick the game could have been over by then. But his great save on the last minute of the game and his smarts not to freeze the puck after the save led to the tying goal. Kings looked good again in OT while the home team was still wondering what happened until the devastating give away, shorthanded.

The interference calls have been down this year and last night they were plenty of them. If the zebras continue to allow them, it'll be a controversial playoffs throughout no matter which series.

My buddy just got tickets for tonight's game at the Rog, looking forward to it. With yet another injury affecting the team, Schneider is not healthy enough to play, as the Luongo chapter in VAN continues...Go Lou!

[MizzouRah]

The Blues came out and played one of their best games I've ever seen. If it wasn't for Quick, we could have won 4-1 or better... although I appreciate him coughing it up to give us the W last night.

I'd sit Perron down and play Tarasenko, they play similar, but Tarasenko is much stronger on the puck than Perron is. That 4th line is fun to watch though.. wow.

We dominated the game...no way Hitch changes the lineup unless there is an underlying injury. Tarasenko was great for like the first two weeks of the season but he hasn't been the same since his concussion, not to mention he pretty much hit the wall. I'm sure he'll get a chance to play eventually but now is not the time. He needs to take a few lessons from Schwartz about competing night in and night out. Perron was pretty good last night...he was feisty and he drove to the net...even got into it with Quick early in the game.
Cracknell and Reaves though....wow were they good last night!

[10spro]

Not sure how it looked on TV, but if Canucks continue to play the same undisciplined, clumsy and emotionless game, they'll be in a lot of trouble. Didn't see 3 passes strung together, at times in the offensive zone they looked for the perfect pass instead of shooting the puck straight at Niemi. There was no traffic whatsoever in his crease and the Sharks just out worked them in game 1.

Having sporadic moments of brilliance won't cut it in the playoffs, they have to put a 60 minutes effort altogether. Very disappointing game to watch for the home crowd.

We clearly watched different games, Perron was a non factor as he has been since his concussion. I'm tired of Perron and at least Tarasenko doesn't get knocked off the puck as much as Perron does. Not that Tarasenko is head and shoulders better than Perron, but I wouldn't mind swapping them each game for one another.

Maybe he will score two goals tonight to shut me up.

I am so done with Carey Price.

In games where you out shoot other team two to one ( 50-26 at the moment ) and dominate play you should not be losing 4-2 but this s*** has happened for the last three weeks or four weeks.

The guy has lost whatever confidence he had.

[Gangrel]

Anderson stole the game for the Sens, and without making a ton of amazing saves. But still, he was solid.

It will be interesting to see if Gryba gets suspended. To me it looks like he hit Eller on the shoulder and brushed into his head, and as Kerry Fraser said on TSN, it was a "clean hit with a bad result".

I think the blood came from him landing face first on the ice.

Killing off the major with only one goal, and also that 5-3 during the major is what shifted the game, IMO.

.

I would have given him the credit but the 4 goals Price gave up are far and away too many considering how the play on the ice went.

The Habs had to be perfect to score while the Sens only had to get a shot on goal . Any where.

The last Ottawa power play in the second period...they were out shot 3-0. That says alot. When a team dominates the way the Habs did they deserve a far better result than that.

I sit Price. In a dungeon or maybe your basement.


I cant tell about the hit. Its not obvious like when that fuckbag chara tried to kill MP, It is really hard to tell. In this case I give the benefit of the doubt to the player.


Last thought. If they play Price, they will either be swept or go down in five. HE IS THAT BAD!

[Aristo]

f*** yeah!

[Jimmydeicide]

f*** No!!

The Kid Line looked as tough as the CPR Line tonight. As good as the Blues are playing, the Kings do not allow for much margin for error. Every goal is so hard to come by and turns the game.

You still tired of Perron? He was very good again tonight. Tarasenko is gonna have to wait a little longer to get in the lineup.
LETS GO BLUES!

Along with Eller, Pacioretty and Gionta are also out tonight.

I doubt without them they will be able to generate the offense they did last night. So how exactly to you beat that goalie without it?

Price will have to pitch a near shut out.

Say good night Gracie.

[MizzouRah]

What an awesome game that was, even better seeing Jackman score the winner!

[XXXIV]

I would have never thought of this strategy. Hit everything that moves. I didnt think they had that in them. What a hit machine. Wow! Hit after hit after hit. Havent seen this version of hits and skills since the late 70s.

Price. I bash( cause you did suck!) but now now must say...Good game boy.

Maybe Price is back? Can he ever be back? I think of him as the luongo of the eastern conference. he showed up tonight for sure. f*** if he was half as good as this last night they'd be up 2-0.

The officials. disgraceful again. betmann you are a disease. pig.

It's a game of inches at this time of the year and there's not much separating VAN & SJ. With a much better performance by VAN, Hansen had a chance to make it 3-1 into the yawning empty net and just missed. With the extra man, Marleau ties the game with 52 seconds left and the Sharks win it in OT as they are in the driving seat with a 2-0 lead.

The loss erases a great performance by Kesler leading the team in the 3rd period, and the Twins line need to have a wake up call or this series could be over in SJ. A better game overall by the 'Nuckers but the same sour loss.

[MizzouRah]

Tough loss last night.. need to win on Monday.

[Naples39]

Scouted in more detail on my blog.

I must say we are in 100% agreement when it comes to your bruins evaluation

Just noticed this message.

As for the Habs. Roadkill!... Total ass kicking!

Then there is Price. Watching him is painful. Make a freaking save that matters!

At least Subban was funny nailing that dude again and again even with the linesman on him....

[10spro]

Considering how tough every single game in the west is being played, this particular game is a total farce of the sport. For all intent and purposes the game was pretty much over after the 3-1 which deflated the Habs. Habs don't need to take a page out of the Bruins, accept the loss and move on. With 10 minutes to go watching both teams play shinny hockey is painful to watch at this time of the year.

It was embarrassing. First off most of those idiots couldnt win a fight with my gf.

Somebody needs to tell Subban that when the linesman is trying to hold you, you stop swinging. The lameness of it was what struck me funny.

Sometimes hockey fights seem like the safest place to be in a hockey game.
