“I’ve studied goaltending more than anyone in the World”

Is anyone else worried about the Blues coming out so strongly at the start that it feels "decided" after a period of play but it's not because there's wayyyyy too much time to play with the lead on the road against a wounded, desperate team with heavy expectations?

I am hoping for an even kind of game for awhile that the Blues THEN break through and get in his head and there's not enough time to get it together.

Agree with you to some extent. Having to protect a smaller lead for a long stretch has shown to be somewhat problematic.

At the same time, I don't want anything to happen that might allow Helle to relax and start getting confident. He's obviously in his own head and that's exactly where we need him to be.

Go at him hard and fast. An early goal will break a fragile psyche.

As Army would say, time to take the knife, stab him in the eye and finish him off.

Awesome. Best thing I'll read all day.
