edhunter Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Boston sports radio was terrified that St Louis would thug it up and take cheap shots. They never thought it would be Rask laying an egg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyta Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) That was a good game tonight, no bad hits or questionable penalties. Bennington rose to the occasion tonight and the Blues kept the Perfection line from scoring. I do feel bad for Rask, the fans are going to be ragging on him. He can't win the game by himself, the whole team has to take their lumps. Thought it was very classy for the Blues to fly Lalia and her mother in to see the game. She's the 11 year old patient (her disease makes a person’s white blood cells attack other cells, severely affecting one’s immune system) that became friends with Parayko. He took her down on the ice and he kissed her and she kissed the Cup. Had me crying :sigh: Edited June 13, 2019 by Rhyta 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek19 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Tonight's N.H.L. Stanley Cup Final game seven, was a very good one. The St. Louis Blues put on a showcase. What they did for Laila, and her mom Heather by flying the both of them to Boston to see game seven live in person was nice, and special. Even having Laila, included in hoisting the Stanley Cup, with the St. Louis Blues' team on the ice was sweet, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Congratulations to the Blues and their fans. Game 7 wasn’t a heavy game. The Blues just outplayed the Bruins. People are defending Rask, but the job of a heroic goalie is to bail your defense out and accordingly put pressure on the other goalie to be perfect. Rask failed, as he always does in the clutch, Binnington didn’t fail. He was brilliant. The Blues won 3 road games. They deserved to win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g under p Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Even though I was only able to see the 1st period the BLUES throughingly defeated the BRUINS. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BLUES and their fans. The Blues earned and deserved this win, waiting some 50 years to get the Cup. I'm especially happy for that Blues fan whose ILL, I think her name is Laila. She must feel like shes on top of this world. Now if she can just rid herself from her illness all will be swell in St Louis. I hope their fans party like its 2099 cause this win was a long time in coming to the city . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second goal came off a horrible defensive play by Marchand...leaving for a change in the middle of an attack? I know the shift had gone long, but game 7, ya know?

edhunter Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 So how do they determine whose names go on the cup? Is it just the players who are on the roster for the clinching game? Or anyone who played in that series? Each team made healthy scratches to make room for players returning from injury 4 for game 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkrush Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Congrats to the Blues, although my heart's not in it. Still, an incredible story, to go from last to first. I don't think that's ever going to happen again. North Stars came close in 1991, when they were the 16th seed and made it all the way to the final. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) Obviously, there was a lot that went on in game 7 of the Stanley Cup, but I keep coming back to that defensive lapse by Marchand that led to the second goal, a play reminiscent of mini-mite hockey. This guy agrees... https://www.boston.c...nte-stanley-cup ‘That goal may have cost them the Stanley Cup’: Bruins analyst blames Brad Marchand after Game 7 loss “Marchand was in the zone, then he’s out of the zone,” said Amonte on NBC Sports Boston. “There he is at the blue line, then he changes, Pietrangelo skates right past him. He’s in no-man’s land. He’s standing still. You see the change? Way too late. You have to start heading back towards your net. You know you’re standing still at the blue line. You’re done. You’re done. You have to just start retreat[ing]. Get back. Go back to the spot.” In the video it looks really bad.

EDIT: I'll add that the second goal was enormous. It allowed Binnington to relax (relatively of course), and simultaneously put enormous pressure on the Bruins. Edited June 14, 2019 by Rick N.
