I went from feeling kind of okay about this game, to pretty damn bad. Goose is the heart and soul of this team and I think they’re going to struggle without him.

But who is going to back Kaleta up when he throws a hit and refuses to fight? I love what the guy brings to the table, but his turtling is getting a little embarrassing, and the reason why he got cheap-shotted by that dude from LA.

Very true haha. Rivet is the best thing that has happend to our team in quite some time.The thing about rivet as of late that is slightly agitating. is him not flattening people infront of the net enough sometimes ,he lets guy hang right in front of miller and get a good chance to snap a rebound.

I think Goose is the only consistent player on the team. He may not score every night but he’s always there in front of the net, he’s always throwing hits, he’s always skating hard for the puck and if anybody wants to drop the gloves he’s up for the challenge.

Mair will. Remember the Islanders game where he killed that guy?

If Mair and Kaleta are on the same line, then Lindy would be punishing P.Kaleta by giving him less ice time. Kaleta and Goose were playing together before the injury.

i duno i think Mair has played pretty well this year. he still takes a dumb penalty or two but He has scored some goals I wouldn’t have though he was capable of doing.

edit: Just saw the blues put legacy on waivers, I wonder if anyone will pick him up
