I'm frustrated with the broadcast, wish they would actually call the action on the ice, instead of rambling conversations about Wild stuff.
I'm trying to familiarize the players numbers, kept wondering what Blues player did something on a play, while Wild announcers are just talking about (bleep) instead of calling the game

Love how Stenberg plays. Dvorsky looks like he added a bit of an edge to his game. Burns nice pass on the 3rd goal. Carbonneau will be a handful as he adds strength. Stancl and Pekarcik made a few plays. Lindstein looks just ok. Jirchek I think looks like the Blues best D in this game.

No doubt!
Blues #'s below...Wild announcers are slow to name the Blues players. Blues website states they practiced in STL at 10am then flew up here. I bet they play better tomorrow, as a unit.

Blues weren’t sharp at all. Hopefully they get some better play in the 2nd. Wild being very physical. I expect Burns to respond.
Jiricek and Dvo have been good, Carbonneau solid the rest meh period
Small sample size, but none of the Blues look NHL ready. Pekarcic and Lindstein don’t look good at all
Pretty hard for me to determine a whole lot in a game like this vs watching AHL games. Dvorsky looks pretty good to me same with Carbonneau my opinion hasn't changed I'm not sure Dvorsky makes the Blues out of camp but he'll play in the NHL this year. Several of these prospects will be NHLers but most need more seasoning for sure

Impressed by Jiricek the most in this game. Great shot, poise.

Really noticing how well he negotiates space. But more importantly, his stickhandling is really impressive.

Praying to the injury gods that they have had all the fun with him already. Just stay away.

I like Jechos game I could see him putting it together and becoming a nice fixture on the bottom 6

The kid just flew into a strange place. What a ride for him.
