I can't stay up until 1:00 watching hockey because I have to get up and start watching hockey at noon.

Kuemper stole that one for the Coyotes. Don't think he has 3 more in him but sure going to be fun watching. He's been great all series.

Also, only the NHL would schedule a break of games from 6-7:30 and then start games at 7:30 and 8 on a Saturday night.

I'm so torn about this game - I still hate Canucks from 2011 and clearly hate STL for last year. I guess most of the 2011 Canucks are gone and Vancouver is a way nicer city than STL, so go go Vancouver! (yes I am petty).
Clearly rooting against Berube and the Blues.

Absolutely. Is there even anyone left on Vancouver from 2011? St Louis is dirty and whiny.... I can live with a team being one, but not both. Also, St Louis sports in general are way up on my hate list.

Awesome goal by Dallas with 11 seconds left! Oh wait, now lets spend 10 minutes on a fucking stupid offsides review.

Absolutely relevant to check earlier offside in a 6 on 5, FYI. There's literally an extra guy that could impact the play soon.

Note to self: do not play 4-on-4 hockey against the Vancouver Canucks.

Yotes look like they are done. It's been the equivalent of a 3 game power play so far this series and they just look like they have nothing left in the tank.

Blues have a formula; look inferior and cede O-zone time, SOG edge for very long stretches, then pot one in unlikely fashion and deflate opposition. That and high hits all over the ice. Any concussed Canucks, yet?

They outshot Vancouver 37-22 last night. I assume that means they also won the o-zone battle while looking superior for stretches.

My god the NHL.com site is an abject disaster. Your post prompted me to go look up the shot totals in each game out of curiosity, and I'm still clicking around trying to find them.

It is awful. And when I head to ESPN’s site, it is easier to find information about the cornhole league.

To answer your question, they've outshot the Canucks each game by a decent enough margin but Binnington played like crap.

One of the Blues was taken off under concussion protocol after this hit, but he returned later in the game. (Vancouver player got 2 min for boarding.)

Welp, they set records for suspensions and opponents concussed, last year, so maybe karma is catching up to them. Blais, Barbashev, Sundqvist and one other whose name escapes me were responsible for most of the high-elbows that took Sharks and Bruins to the quiet room at a prolific pace.
