– Luongo is again quietly putting together yet another strong killer second half.
BOOM BEACH LANDING CRAFT GRIND FULL
It was determined in period one that the No Passing Line was in full effect) and shot the puck out of the rink instead of on net, that he did the ol’ “Time to check my stick, oh, let’s look at the blade, yeah, it must be the blade, not my fault at all” move. – Another highlight of the game for me was when David Booth skated in on a two one one with Kesler (He was not passing that puck. It would be nice if they could use that 3rd line to shut down a team with a big line. He stood up a couple of Blues players and showed flashes of 2011 Hansen like forehecking. I liked the fact that he seems strong on his skates. – Pahlsson still new to the team, hard to get a read on him. – So do you think Gragnani will use next season to pile up 45 points so he can sign a $10 million deal with Buffalo the year after that? The best is when he falls down and looks at ref and gets no call, gets up and throws a tantrum and randomly skates around trying to hunt down anyone to throw a hit on, as if to say “This was your fault ref. Other times he talks to the ref while falling down trying to draw a penalty. Tonight as he was chasing down an icing he found time to chat to the ref while he was skating after the puck. Watch him play when he is struggling, he will often times look at the ref in the middle of a play, imploring them to call something. I don’t know if there is a better pouter in the entire league.
– Kesler makes me laugh when things aren’t going his way. The only thing missing was a jersey made up of pink camo. Andy McDonald and David Perron were both rocking the “my visor is smoky, which makes me sexy and mysterious” look tonight. – Anybody who uses a tinted visor makes me think they came straight out of an online game of NHL 12. – No mentions of putting cheese or ketchup on anything. This did not end well.) so I won’t pick on Raymond, but I will say I wouldn’t be against Raymond not playing with Kesler for a game or two. The entire second line had an average game (Kesler as back into non-passing mode, which meant Booth was into non-passing mode, which meant the entire line took turns trying to one man rush it for a goal every shift. – Raymond fell down twice in the first then promptly stopped falling down so I couldn’t make fun of it any more. – Kassian is very good at stepping into scrums and just looking down on people, almost shrugging his shoulders as if to say “Do I really have to beat you up?” Many scrums ended quickly once The Kassassin put himself in the middle of them. Did Kassian allow Lappy to feel confident enough to throw more hits? Who knows, but if it has, than I am even happier with Kassian than I was before. He had the kind of game that makes you look back at that trade with Anaheim and just laugh and laugh. Lappy looked like playoff Lappy as he was dishing out hits all night. If they don’t make MAGnum reign it in, I have to assume AV hates Ballard for something extremely petty, like maybe Keith beat AV’s high score in Angry Birds? But on the other hand I am interested to see how AV handles this, because Keith Ballard has great offensive instincts as well, but was told to curb them. On one hand, I am fine with having a d-man who is high risk, high reward. At one point MAGnum left a confused Daniel Sedin to handle point duties while he went into the corner to cycle. I don’t know how many times I saw someone streaking towards the net tonight and I thought it was a forward going for the back door play, only to see that it was Gragnani. And like that frat boy, he would often forget about his responsibilities. So confident he is like that frat boy who thinks he can get any girl he wants, whenever he wants. So confident that he reminded me of a young Keith Ballard before Alain Vigneault beat the confidence and offence out of him. It was his first game on a new team, so it’s hard to read too much into things, but offensively he looks to be quite confident. Louis Blues were harmed in the making of this game. Sometimes it concerns me when Snarly Bieksa turns into Forward Snarly Bieksa, but the team covered for his adventures, and he played well for the rest of the night. He was shoving people left and right like a fat kid whose been told the cafeteria is shutting down dessert early today. – Bieksa looked angry tonight in the first period.
