Agreed. They'll be gone in the 1st round again like always. They just have our number is all. Remember down the stretch last year when they looked like all stars every time they played the Flames, but crapped the bed against all the teams we were chasing? Man I hate the Blues.

You would think after a while the powerplay would simply get a goal based on a bounce or something but they rarely even get close to scoring.

...quit it. Stop taking unscreened garbage shots.

Hudler, Bennett, Monahan, Gaudreau should be the go to power play forwards.

Brodie, Giordano, Hamilton should be defenders.

Wideman doesn't have it this season.

The "wrist shot from the point" strategy is just not working.

Backlund has 0 offensive ability. Put him out instead of Bennett.... Comical.

The whole point of Colborne on the powerplay is for him to stand in front of the net. Why isn't he in front of the freaking net?

Ramo allowed 3 goals on 12 shots. Any of them weak?

3rd was the weakest, but when you let a guy take a clapper from the face off dot it will go in sometimes.

Can they send Bennett down to the World Juniors so he can get some ice time?
