OMG, guess pay back is a bitch, huh? How do the Blues beat the Oilers on Sunday and then less than a week later look worse than a farm team against them?
Not only did the Blues get outworked, they got caught in traps, weren't covering the net, had mediocre passing, way too many turnovers, and far too many penalties. The sad part about it is the SOG. They only had one less than the Oilers. But that obviously didn't effect the scoreboard.
It wasn't like they weren't trying to get to the net. But when they did, guys were out of position and if someone dug the puck out of the corners and shot it in front of the net, no one was there for a possible deflection to slap it in. Honestly, I couldn't even watch the third period.
The Blues are obviously lacking confidence. And being on a five game road trip against some heavy hitting teams isn't helping to get any back.
They need some serious help on their D and in net. Oh yeah, and Doug Weight needs to start scoring. And Jay McClement needs to stay out of the box.
