GDT: Hawks at Blues 8:30 TNT

[TheJackBurton]

After watching the replay of the Nazar goal, and his (buzz) (donkey) celebrating while his team gets its (donkey) kicked.... I think he needs a lesson from Mr. Schenn in the 3rd.

[MiamiLaw]

Buchnevich draws a penalty.

Stop with the Mailloux bashing. He was caught in the corner. Yes, it was a bad decision, but usually a safe one. No winger to help and Hofer is Hole-fer.

He’s [fork]ing bad. Get over it.

Maybe, hope to god, he figures it out for the Blues sake but right now he’s killing the team.

We’ve surrendered what 13 or 14 goals so far this season (not even looking at how many were short handed or empty net) and he’s been on the ice AND negatively involved in 9 of them.

Is that last part true? Good god…

No, it isn't.

He's -4. He was -3 in the first 3 and he's -1 tonight.

Yea gotcha. I mean he’s been bad but I couldn’t imagine it was that bad.

He's going to be up and down this season there's no doubt, but quite honestly the problem tonight was Hofer.

Those first two absolutely can never happen. One can happen, but both 1:30 apart? Nope.

He was the #1 star against Calgary, and he's been the worst player on the ice tonight.

Hofer did him no favors but 4 games in there has been not a single up but lots of downs for Mailloux. I’ll happily take up and down at this point…

[TheJackBurton]

Atrocious defense but man we keep talking about needing a 2c. I think we need a 1C. Thomas not fast enough or good enough shorter to be a 1C. Just disappears for periods at a time.

That’s attributable to #89.

Such a Buch play on that break where he tried to pass back to Jake. Not only was the pass through a defender, but Jake was in no position to take the pass back.

He still got the secondary assist though for that blunder so Harry York will say he’s got the best hockey IQ on the team

The guy’s a train wreck. I am perplexed on what he is thinking on these “passes” he makes. Like I said, I hope there’s a team that’s really desperate at the deadline or before..

He has a full NTC, he isn't going anywhere. He has to be selfish. Someone needs to let him know it's ok to shoot the puck.

This has been an ongoing issue for him. I can’t imagine the coaches haven’t said anything. If they haven’t, they’re simply incompetent

He's -4. He was -3 in the first 3 and he's -1 tonight.

No he’s -3 tonight and -6 overall…through 3-2/3s games.

That’s brutal on its own, but then consider his limited time on ice and it becomes malpractice.

He also has ZERO points as a vaulted offensive defenseman. He hasn’t even fallen into an assist yet.

[icon]

I just saw the first two goals Hofer gave up and he looked completely incompetent as a goalie! Just Putrid!

Hofer thought he was Bobby Orr, I guess, on the 1st goal. Imagined he was going to get an assist by clearing the puck up the middle -- right to the Hawks.

[HighStick]

Blues are going to have a worse record than the Hawks if things don't change quick.

I don't know that I agree with that. The games against Calgary and Vancouver weren't bad at all. His bad games so far have been at home.

Also, why does it sound like Panger is broadcasting from the bathroom? How have they not fixed his audio yet?

[swatski]

Ok maybe our DMen should learn how to play defense before they start rushing into offensive plays.

[Russdv14]

Weren’t Hofer and Binner touted as one of the top 5 goalie tandems in the league. Overrated

Hofer is back in!

And Tucker put there again !

Notice how Darren Pang’s microphone is muffled this game?

Oh, we got scored on again. I quit paying attention

[Absolut]

Faulk Tucker and neighboUrs nose picking

[StLouis-4Life2]

We put Hofer back in so I guess we conceded this game...6th goal was pathetic. Would like to call up Ellis to be the backup...but Buffalo got him

[WilliamWestcliffe]

Where are the leaders on this team!? Unbelievable lack of response.

ESPN hadn't updated yet, but your line about him being negative on 9 of them was incorrect.

Ok he has zero 3 games and 2 periods into the season. No one said he was Erik Karlsson

Joel Hofer just doesn't have it tonight. I don't know what his problem is.

[somni]

If there was ever a time or a Lucic moment, this would be the game.

[Russdv14]

It is so embarrassing on national TV

How’s the goalie ever been pulled twice in one game for being terrible?
