I thought kyrou was the fastest skater once? :lol: man if he used his speed half as much as Mac does, he’d be worth keeping
Hah! They may have similar top speeds, but Mackinnon moves with the strength of a freight train and the agility of a ballet dancer.

Kyrou's so soft I can't even think of a fitting analogy other than to say he's soft. lol
It’s really night and day. But kyrou is a finesse player!
Let him play his game and don’t rip him for his lack of compete :lol:

This game should have gotten chippy with a couple fights about 10 minutes ago. I hate to join the chorus, but I don't think this team has any pride, identity, or heart. There's no fights, no big hits being thrown, nothing to suggest to the Avs that the we aren't going away easily.

This might not be the worst Blues team I've seen, but it's the least coherent and most listless.

It’s by far the most disappointing Blues team I can remember

He's a shell of the player he once was. (Ef'En) turrble!
And Parayko. He has a point blank shot when your team has one shot in 12 minutes and passes it to the side of the net.
Reminds me of when I tried to play through a tailbone injury in high school. I couldn't shoot and finally in practice one day the coach stopped and screamed WTH is wrong with you why are you not taking a slap shot like you're supposed to!

It literally seems to be something like that as it's baffling why he refuses to shoot.

This whole team's a mess.

-41 goal differential.

Next worst team is -24 and all other teams with negative are in the teens or single digits. Pathetic.

We can still tie this game if we score on every shot on goal

It's a sad statement when I think Nathan Walker would be nice right now. At least he cares.

I don't even know what their identity should be if they had one. It's a mishmash of aging vets, raw rookies called up probably a little too soon, (bleep) defensemen, and nobodies like Bjug and Pius Suter who are sadly two of our best players. And for good measure, the goalies suck. And if Kyrou ever throws a body check he will probably shatter into a thousand pieces.

I can't even play armchair GM to fix this team. It's a total trainwreck.

Been saying for the last 20 games or so. Softest Blues team I’ve ever seen. The lack of pride is disappointing to see.

Thomas, Buch, and Kyrou 0 Shots in the 1st period. We need more from top paid players

What incentive does Colorado have to fight?

Blues are the worst team in differential scoring in the 2nd period. Always the worst period. Can't wait to see this 2nd period!!!

I know it's still early in the season and they are only playing the Blues but it might be worth putting a buck or two on the avs to win the Cup.

This team missed Walker for sure. The guy gives 100% every shift, never passes up a hit, and can contribute offensively

Colorado just set a record for 4th fastest goals to start a game in NHL history!!!

And they had 1 taken away! Thanks Monty+Binner

The veterans on this team are a shell of what they were last season after the 4Nations.
