Might as well talk about it now while we can still be civilized.


You're going down btw :tooth:

 

[bluecoconuts]

Don't worry, we'll go easy on you.

Is Halak healthy?

No. We're riding Elliott, since he's on a hot streak right now. Personally (and I really hate to admit this), I think you guys win this series; we're missing Oshie, a lot of our guys aren't scoring, and even though we closed out on a good note, you guys are just built more for the playoffs than we are.

just another facet of the STL-LA rivalry LOL

What Memento said, though Elliot hasn't been that consistent at home though for some reason.

Someone is going to need to catch fire points wise. I would love it to be Backes but idk. Going to be a fun physical series though that's for sure. What we've lacked in scoring lately we've made up for in physicality.

I agree Kings could easily take this one again. Fucking bastards. :x :tooth:

At least you went all the way last time.

Elliot is 0-8-1 against LA..... So ill take him.

Kings need Kopitar to start scoring goals instead of points. Its hard to repeat, but as long as we get one on the road I think we're good. We won the most home games in the NHL, and a lot of them were in regulation/OT, so I think we'll be okay.

I think Kings in 5 or 6. Blues take game 1, Kings 2, 3, 4, and Blies may extend to game 6, but Kings end it there.... But I expect to see Oshie and Halak before the series ends. Should be fun!

Only 2 hours until game time. GKG!

 

[Lesson]

Great game.

All I gotta say though is:

STEEEN

[Sum1]

Hahaha I put mine in the main too and got booted over here.

Edit: oh never mind just looked at Ram stalk n saw haha. Forgot my password for the time being cause my laptops in repair. Prob a good thing

 

[GcBean]

That ending hurt. Damn.

 

[bluecoconuts]

That ending hurt. Damn.

Kings didn't deserve to win the game, but to lose it when they actually had the momentum hurt.

The game went as I thought it would. I stand by my prediction with Kings in 6. They were better in OT, they just need one on the road. Don't get nuthin for 1.

You're right, the Kings didn't deserve to win that game, and it should never have gone to OT. I don't like making predictions when I think either team could possibly win, but if the Kings played like they did yesterday for the rest of the series it's hard to imagine the Blues not winning by at least five games.

 

[Sum1]

The Blues had opportunities to win that game by a wide margin...Quick played lights out. He's a lot of fun to watch...but hopefully that was his best game of the series!

Not a chance they do. If the Blues win, it will be in 7. LA has been flat out awful on the road this year, teams have been taking advantage of our injured D.... You guys punished Muzzin and Ellerby all night, and they coughed up the puck a lot. The Oilers won more road games than LA. So they have to win at least 1 game on the road. However for how bad they are on the road, they're amazing at home. Most home wins in the league this year. Kings will win their home games, they need to take a road win from St Louis to win the series though.

Reaves is gonna make sure they don't even make it to the bus back to LA though Coco

 

[Angry Ram]

I'm still a new hockey fan, and caught the tail end of the game.

LET'S GO BLUES!!!!!

Reaves has really emerged this year. He's quite talented for a fourth line enforcer; he goes to the net to tip shots, checks hard but cleanly, handles the puck fairly well, and brings a ton of energy. Him and Schwartz have been playing great down the stretch; now we need Tarasenko to start doing the same. If Tarasenko gets going...look out.

I think tarasenkos slow down has been a mixture of fatigue and bad luck. He's not use to playing this many games, and he's been getting robbed lately. Still very solid play. I'd like to see him back sometime in the series. Maybe sit porter
