Give Your Balls a Tug: Canucks & Blues
Vancouver Canucks at St. Louis Blues, Nov 10, 2009 5:00 PM PST
When we last saw the Blues, they were sulking off the ice after Alex Burrows snuck one through Mason's five hole to end their wild ride of a season. I still can't believe they swept them.
No time for living in the rear view. Both teams are different now and both would have liked better starts to their season. Unlike Vancouver, our friends in St. Louis have figured out how to stay healthy (notably Paul Kariya, Erik Johnson and Eric Brewer) but are still failing on the ice. As Sean noted earlier, their problem isn't the defense, it's the offense. The Blues aren't getting the stellar production they got from guys down the stretch last year like Backes (2 points) and Oshie (4 points, though he was out with an injury). Actually no one on the team has more than ten points. Both their PP% and goals per game are in the bottom five for league totals which helps underscore the reality: the Blues ain't bad, they're just not producing. Sooner or later, that will change.
And fun fact: Mike Weaver leads them in +/-.
With Luongo sitting on the bench, Facepalm Yaycroft - the league GAA leader - will be standing in their way. Bernier returns to the first line, sending Bieksa back to, you know, being a defenseman. Rypien remains on the third, Petting Zoo on the fourth and Matty Schneider will take the obligatory old man night off.
Much like we looked forward to bashing heads with Chicago a few weeks ago, the Blues are probably out for a little revenge tonight. That's typically a recipe for fun.
No bitchin' about the start time. Gamethread goodness henceforth.

bwa ha ha ha!
If the St Louis Game Time folks drop by and see that, you’ll hear about it :-)
I’ll probably miss most of this one, but I am thinking shitty-ass performance because of the long lay-off.
4-1 Blues :-(

Funny you say that, because I’m thinking along the same lines. If I was a betting man, which I am, I’d pick the Blues because:
-Revenge factor
-Hence the McDonald-Boyes shows gets going
-the layoff and possible lousy play in front of Raycroft = Blues goals.
5-2 Blues in an angry, penalty-filled night.

Is there a Blues rookie who hasn’t scored yet? He’ll score. We manage to allow players to do that.
Don’t get me wrong though…GO F**KING CANUCKS GO!

Vancouver does have that special ability from time to time to make a slumping team forget their woes.

Raycroft is tied for second in save percentage as well, that makes him the Canadian goaltender with the best stats. Does that mean the Canucks sends two goalies to the olympics?

Well, wasnt this a pleasant surprise to tune into. 4-0 after 1? It looked like a few lucky bounces, but the Nucks came out FLAT. AV’s bag skate didnt work it seems.
The strange thing is that I don’t think this game is over yet. Watch the Nucks pot 3 this period.

To notice any booing, but at least know that St. Louis isn’t reknowned for their lack of sportsmanship. In fact far from it. More than any US city we don’t riot and we have a good time when we win. For as many people who boo the national anthem, its easy to find 12 times as many singing along
