Game 59: vs St.Louis, 2/9

[BigG44]

THat was rough. Mayers makes it 4-2 Stars.

[piqued]

Blues are running around, this game has the potential to get ugly.

[BigG44]

Someone needs to be on Kariya like stink on poo in the third.

[DaStars99]

I am always nervous when kariya is on the ice, not that many players make me say that

[BigG44]

A Linesman had a scary moment in the Flyers and Rangers game today. He took a skate to the face.

[BigG44]

Time for another Dallas Stars Power Play!!!

[piqued]

Ah, the Sedin play! Smart thinking by Daley to set up Lehts. 5-2, important goal.

[BigG44]

3 for 4 on the Power Play!!!! Stars up 5-2 with a goal from Jere Lehtinen. I think Niskanen and Daley get the assist.

[piqued]

Well that was an all-star quality save by Legace. Blues needed some of that earlier.

[BigG44]

piqued1457 called it in the first. Hagman-Jokinen-Eriksson have been great tonight.

[piqued]

Now Smith with an athletic stop at the other end. That thing got deflected on the way in, then he had to deal with a rebound too.

[piqued]

Miettinen, again. I'm losing track here.

[BigG44]

Wow. 6-2 Stars. Wow. Mittinen gets his second of the night.

[BigG44]

Ribeiro and Grossman get the assist. Ribeiro has a 3 point night.

[piqued]

One of the linesmen tonight looks like Jaroslav Modry.
Stars on the PP, Halpern draws a call.

edit: or not, no idea what they called there.

[BigG44]

I think the call was "It's just not fair to make the Blues endure another PK failure so lets ignore the blatant hook by McDonald and make some bs call" or something like that.

[BigG44]

Dallas has been so aggressive in the offensive zone. I love it.

[DaStars99]

I would say this game is going well

[BigG44]

Dan Hinote has stood out tonight. Am I crazy, or did he play for the Stars at some point or was it Colorado?

edit: It was Colorado. I knew he was familiar.

[piqued]

Look at all the 6 goal games by one team today in the league, pretty strange.

[BigG44]

They were relentless up to the buzzer.

[piqued]

Yeah, it may not mean much in the grand scheme of things, but that effort they gave, even when up 4, was pretty impressive. Killer instinct like that is an important component to a winning team down the stretch.

[BigG44]

Wow, Ribeiro should take it easy, lol. He just said they didn't play a good team game tonight.

[DaStars99]

good game, we need to keep winning because of the games we have up on SJS

[piqued]

I think he's just mad at himself over that giveaway. You could see him talking to Smith for a while after the horn, probably apologizing.
