Reality is this was a team built to win with special teams. Whistles go swallowed had them working from behind. Game needed to be called tight but straight up.
I'm sure they were just as offended when the Blues fan flipped off Nordstrom last game right in front of the camera after he got creamed right....Update: the Blues also complained about my middle finger and I’ve been ejected from the Garden
Absolutely the most frustrating playoff series ever.That was the most frustrating playoff series I’ve ever witnessed.
Hot take factory needs to produceWhat’s this deal with Rask’s legacy? Before tonight many across the nation were arguing that Rask deserved the Conn Smythe trophy win or lose. That’s obviously not happening after tonight, but he’s been incredible despite the team’s performances.

This is where I’m atTough loss. Proud of this team’s run.
Eternally grateful for the one but this like 2014 to Montreal is going to haunt forever.1-2 in the finals. Tough to swallow
Hockey. Tip in and dumb play by Brad, but the Blues made the most of it.What did I say that was wrong? Do you know when it gets easier to score? When the other team has to press because you have an undeserved 2 goal lead...
A. why am I not allowed to cry in a game thread?Stop crying. They put the puck in the net four times and their rookie goalie stood on his head. Does he not count as part of their team?
The Blues had a losing record at home in the playoffs overall.Losing 3 of 4 at home is unexplainable to me
It happens all the time that a hot goalie leads to a deep playoff run or championship. How can you not have the goalie count as part of the team. It’s like saying the Diamondbacks only beat the Yankees in the WS because their starters were better even though the Yanks had the better team.A. why am I not allowed to cry in a game thread?
B. I would say relying on your goalie to keep you in the game is a pretty terrible strategy and means you have been badly outplayed. It works on occasion, but more often than not it doesn't. So I stand behind my point that they did not play better tonight.
Agree. Zero. And I mean zero. I expected a loss to at least be calmer by the folks I know from there before the series. Yeah no. Never again. That team can fuck right off, and that's understating my boiling mind right now.I feel zero respect for that organization
I’m sorry, brother. I wish they had done better for you.Absolutely the most frustrating playoff series ever.
The game thread after a tough season ending loss is not the place to use reason and be rational.A. why am I not allowed to cry in a game thread?

2011 through the looking glass. Sucks to be on this side of itHot goalie and an opportunistic and physical team
and they were road warriors
they deserved to win
Do you think that it was a strategy to rely on their goalie to keep them in the game?A. why am I not allowed to cry in a game thread?

Jim Kelly would have given what's left of his jaw to go 1-3 in the Super Bowl.1-2 in the finals. Tough to swallow
This sucked but at least they showed up. The Habsburg Game 7 a few years ago fucking killed me.That was the most frustrating playoff series I’ve ever witnessed.
Felger & Maz will shape it as you will assume because fans are dumb.What’s this deal with Rask’s legacy?
