ParticipantIt’s success when Arty plays physical with restraint.
Kaiser had some unsettled play early on, and then Vlasic settles things with his point shot, and we all revel in #73 two periods (‘tween the 2nd-3rd now for me), but the b‘awk forward driving speed was the difference.
Burkowsky did disappoint in several scoring chances.
Cannot wait for a fast 3rd.October 15, 2025 at 11:37 pm #42556BetweenTheDots
ParticipantSee everyone thought we would have to many defenseman, no one knew Blashill would play 7 of them, hahaha

ParticipantPost 3rd period.
You can, tonight, count every iced Blackhawk as the youth movement, as the team truly was quick, spirited and wise in their execution of the new coaching / game plan and play the game with robot.
Tucker on Blues is the 6th bruiser / goon fighting defender and was his achievements on the scoreboard were not to my liking.There was clearly some offensive brilliance by Bedard and company, and team play was really something.
You gotta like Greene’s game, heck, all their games.
can Lukas start feeling it?
The young ones sure seem to enjoy each other in this on the job training exercises against a rival that got out worked, and they were in the play-off last post-season.The smart positional play of the dee corps and I think they eventually be decscribed as big, quick, smart, and they willing to be. combative inside their scheme.
That was FUN!

ParticipantWow! Who would have thunk it? Kaiser made a bad pass and then deflected in a Blues goal. One unhappy goalie on that one. Other than that, I like his game. I think Bertuzzi will be gone at the trade deadline. Rinzel is playing well, so Arty may go down because this seven defenseman doesn’t play well. I understand his thinking, but KFC must be doing a slow burn not having Lafferty on the ice. And how about Bedard? He is showing a bit more toughness this year. Good for him!

ParticipantHere’s a link to a Tab Bamford article. Included are a lot of good video clips from the TNT crew – comments from Biz during intermission, post game interview interview with Nazar and Bedard to name a couple.

ParticipantMy favorite part of last nights game was Pang going on and on about Hofers stick handling and what a good goal tender he is and then Mikhayev scores, it was silent for 5 to 10 seconds, hahaha

ParticipantMy 2nd favorite part, Montgomery talking about how his Blues are going to take over the game the rest of the way when it was 2-2, hahaha

Dang, nice find Frenchy.

ParticipantThanks, my friend. I’d really like to hear your thoughts about the game. One thing that stood out to me this morning while looking at the analytics was the HDCF% (High Danger Chances For). The Blues finished with 56.52%, while the Blackhawks were at 43.48%. That’s an area Chicago definitely needs to improve — they can’t afford to give up that many high-quality chances. Still, I really liked how they protected the front of the net overall. It’s a step in the right direction defensively.

ParticipantSo maybe the value of Bedard being on a bad team drove him to try to be the best all around hockey player he could? I never had a doubt, his compete level and work ethic are off the charts.
I gotta say KD has brought in players to play his brand of hockey every year even though teams were giving us draft capital to take them off their hands, he’s drafted players to play his brand of hockey is there a chance it all comes to a head this year instead of next???
Now I’m really curious to see the Canucks game

ParticipantOne last thing, maybe. Every night i watch our defenseman and think they are just as good as the opponents, which is refreshing, honestly i like the 7 dmen kind of gives you match up options.
