If they don't win a game like that, I am not sure they will get many better opportunities in St. Louis. If they can't win at least one game in St. Louis, they will be eliminated in the first round. This series will be great.

The Blues are the same team that won the first two and lost 4 in a row last year. Same team that lost their last 6 of the regular season and Ryan Miller had a weak 1st and the blackhawks let up in the second and collapsed in the 3rd. I'm still confident if they go down 2 games that they can still come back and win.



Hopefully the Red Wings can beat the Bruins!



The Wild Avalanche game was brutal. 2 huge turnovers both leading to goals in the 3rd, and on top of that Johnson completely saved the game for the Avs.

Looking forward to game two of Blues and Blackhawks! I am not rooting for either club, but I want a bloodbath!

 

Coach Q was the best coach the avs ever fired. Look at him acting like a boss!

LOL! When I heard he was fined I looked through articles looking for a reason. It was always "obscene gesture" I thought it was a middle finger. When I saw what he did my first thought was "looks like he just adjusted... baseball players do that all the time!" Then I saw the disco gif and micheal jackson gifs. Hilarious. Refs blew that call though



Great seeing the Blues scoring on the powerplay after that Seabrook hit. Hopefully I won't have to see Seabrook in the playoffs again this year after a hit like that. I hope the league puts down a solid suspension for play like that, but I doubt it very much.

Bad hit but if NHL are consistent (they arent) not suspension worthy.

That is a pretty weird claim, how in the world would this not be suspension worthy? Seabrook leaves his feet, targets the head, makes principal contact with the head and the player is injured. If it was the reagular season this would be an in person hearing. If the league was half way serious about player safety, a hit like that would be a suspension for the rest of the series at the very least.
