You cannot have players going thru the crease taking out the skates of the goaltender. I get some GI”s are not penalties, but that cannot go unpenalized..
And to somehow call a double minor on Faulk who was on his back AFTER the play was DEAD!! TJ Luxmore is the worst ref I’ve seen in years. He hasn’t reffed many if any Blues games this season. I knew trouble was coming when I saw he ugly face in the 1st period
That whole sequence was “creative”. And agree about Luxmore. He always looks confused

Those last 2 mins proved how much they need a legit 3rd pairing D. Tucker was his usual pylon on the called back goal and Kessel inexplicably was beat for a two on one against with 7 mins to go. I mean those two aren’t even top pairing AHL level Dmen.
I hope Faulk isn’t seriously injured. If he is we are pucked.
He came back. Monty said it was the cross check to the upper back that hurt him, nothing with the knee, But I agree this team cannot lose any of their top 4 D.
Awe...I was looking for to having Kessel, Mailloux, and Tucker as the bottom 4-6 dmen.
I’d be driving to MN to pick up Suter if I had to. Heck, bring Borts out of mothballs at that point

holy --- they finally won a late third period defensive zone face-off and then cleared the zone. I saw it.
lol these bastards are gonna go like 6-2-1 now aren't they
I mean they are now 3-1-4 in their last 8. Just 2 OT wins out of 4 gives them a 5-1-2 record. They’ve been trending the right direction for a while. 3 on 3 or SO isn’t real hockey
What a weird season. It sure feels like they are out of it but you look at the standings and they are treading water. 3 on 3 may not be "real" hockey but they have to start converting points. That 0-6 in OT is a real killer.

There are so many teams that are at .500 or better that they're all cannibalizing each other's wins. Not a lot of teams are pulling away from the pack. If the Blues could find a way to go on a small run, they would be right back in it.
What a great game by our boys. The negitive stuff has already been said. Take this win and the positive stuff about this game. We beat a pretty good team. And this time we even overcame the controversy at the end. Way to go boys.
