Next Game
St. Louis Blues (30-26-9, 11th/W) at New York Islanders (26-32-8, 14th/E)
7 p.m. EST | Nassau [gloriously unsponsored] Coliseum | MSG+, radio
Ribald band of Blues brothers: St. Louis Game Time
Ty Webb: You've got to win this hole.
Danny Noonan: I thought winning wasn't important--
Ty Webb: --Me winning isn't. You do.
Danny Noonan: ... Great grammar.
Blake Comeau is said to be ready to go. Still one more hole at forward to fill. Mix and match, match and mix. Ten games on the league docket tonight. I see tank people.

Biron in goal
Bergenheim-Park-Jackman for line 3
Sim-Weight-Gillies for line 4
So there’s that.

was begining to wonder if I was in right place :)

Try that one above ^ It’s delayed, but it worked for me.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
I think my blatant bigamy has scared of all the regulars.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Doug Weight shot?
Doug Weight shot!
BTW, Darren Pang said Weight fully intends to get the shoulder operated on so he can continue playing. That’s going to be an interesting sell. Rehab would take a while, me thinks.

who takes Schremp's place on PP? Neilsen with Weight and KO?
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 7:40 PM EST reply actions
Could be from the looks of it. Looked like the first unit got the whole shift there.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
A PP goal?
Strange happenings, I do declare. And Moulson nearly had it on the one-timer just before that.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Comeau
seems to be having a good game judging from what i am able to see and the from reading yahoo recap
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 7:46 PM EST up reply actions
I'd agree with that
Started right where he left off, had a dangerous open wrist shot early on.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Whhyyyyyyy
is Gillies out there again? I don’t want to sound like the great unwashed masses out in Islander Country but can’t ya just give Tambo a shot?
We are not smart enough to understand the mysterious ways.
Seriously, at this point why not at least throw Bridgeport a bone. He is some kind of purgatory.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
I really hope that’s not why, considering Tavares is lining up against Backes.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
It's just that they won't even share the ice, probably
Hopefully Gordon learned from coaching Backes at the Olympics: Don’t piss him off, and he will let your players live.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
If he suffered from Male-Pattern Baldness
would he try a Comeau-ver?
Hey Guys !!!

Hey!
Comeau-comeau chamelion.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Panger interviews Papa Dougie
Big Daddy frustrated by the upper body injuries this year and very much hoping to play again next year.
Yeah, Pang talked during the play about him going ahead with surgery? The rehab for that could be a problematic timeline, in terms of getting a contract.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Scout your UFA d-men options tonight
A Mr. Colaiacovo.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
So, not PIMs for Gillies
What’s up with that?

Behaving?
I’ve honestly seen so little of him that I don’t know how he is when he’s not having to fight.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
It was Bergy, just not the right one
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 8:11 PM EST up reply actions
i would argue that ...
LOL

Heh, exactly. It was the one who can finish.
I can’t believe the “big body” providing the screen was Perron.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Is there any speed coming from Bridgeport?
This team looks so slow at times especially in transition
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 8:13 PM EST reply actions
None of NHL talent that I’m aware of. But I hope Martin and JJ become wing upgrades.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
That is why prospects drive me nuts
Body still developing, head still developing, adjusting to culture/AHL life/being a pro. You just never know if it’s going to click, and if it clicks, when.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Canes are a force of nature
last night down 2-0 against the Caps tie it and get it to OT for a point. Down 2-0 against the Pens tonight and now leading 3-2.
Thought the Great Dane would get a biscuit there
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
The last five minutes have been some kind of shinny
Craziness. I was told a shootout was required to make hockey so entertaining.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
who was trying to change the channel on that feed?

Someone who hates hockey?
This is pretty fun stuff. Meyer just laid a hard hit on Oshie, then tried it again and … lost like some such Rick Nash.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Oh Comeau
Don’t lose your stick like that, you need it on a PK.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
End of 2nd. Survival.
1-1, hey hey. No lead to blow.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
I am going to the Pacquiao fight
Saturday night! gonna be a great time! Saturday night’s alright!

That one's at the football stadium, isn't it?
Big crowd expected?
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Yeah
gonna be about 45,000 there. Our seats are in what would be the end zone, but the giant video board is gonna help with sightlines. The atmosphere should be great. Beats going to Vegas and shelling out for seats there. Dont get me wrong, Vegas is Vegas :) but it is cost effective here.
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 8:44 PM EST up reply actions
Strong third period would be nice
It’s about time we come out and play a solid third… please.
Indeed. No lead to blow, so maybe...
And welcome aboard, sir.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Recioe for success: Stay out of box, Forecheck like crazy. Ridiculous prediction: JT scores 2, Isles hold on for 3-2 win

I wanna say Biron has been solid so far
But he’s had a lot of those close calls around his feet.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Wow
Powerplay movement with competence! I think the Coliseum ice screwed Frans on the finish there.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
…and I can now confirm Frans cusses in English.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Bergie must’ve chosen a Finnish F-bomb on his. Or the delay button was in effect.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Uh-oh
Down goes Gervais. Shot to the foot.
We’re going to be raiding Utah before long.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
More penalties and another injury. Hoopefully Chef Bruno is OK, we can’t afford to lose him. Although it figures, he was just stepping up his game
by billymac23 on Mar 11, 2010 9:04 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Bruno is alive
Just like that, he’s back, shooting. I thought he’d be done the way they helped him off.

Bergie power
That’s really the first time I recall seeing Oshie go head-to-head with someone on a check and be the one to blow up.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Oh come now
Another penalty? These refs must work my rec league.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Erik Johnson bombs away
Can’t believe Bruno is still standing.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Couldn’t agree more. Thought he wss a dead man…
by billymac23 on Mar 11, 2010 9:17 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Did Tavares just pass that with his stick upside down?
Crazy lacrosse players.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Why do they play such undisciplined hockey in the third period?
by billymac23 on Mar 11, 2010 9:23 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Not to sound dumb but … they’re trying hard? Park’s was a clear high-stick but it also looked like a weird product of trying to hit the boards, cut off his man, and retrieve the puck at the same time.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Definately could be. Some of the penalties were ticky tack BS calls
by billymac23 on Mar 11, 2010 9:28 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
No, Parkie, no
Weird high-stick. One more PK. Playing with fire here.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Blues dont need the extra point tonight
Dallas is cratering and they will be passed by the end of the weekend
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 9:27 PM EST reply actions
So many others in that bubble, though.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Damn, Biron
Not sure why he played it there. Now it’s an icing with no change instead of a regular ol’ faceoff.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
OT PP
B. Jackman boarding on Nielsen. Softish call for OT.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
my favorite moment of the game
our organist playing the Messiah chorus after the refs FINALLY called a penalty against the Blues.
If Campoli were still here
He’d score twice.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
OT PP fail.
The 5-on-4 ones looked better. Yikes.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Uh-oh.
Not Frans’ best. Now it’s trouble.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Wow, as I was clicking off the feed I hear
“Thank you! Thank You! Thank You!” what a homer!
by IslesguyinDallas on Mar 11, 2010 9:44 PM EST up reply actions
Very overused call
I don’t know why he busts it out all the time. I think the first time he used it was a playoff OT game way way back, and now it’s a signature.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Boyes + Oshie + Mason > Frans + Mo + Biron
Ah well. For 1-1, that was a pretty entertaining game.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Good game boys
That was one of the most entertaining games I’ve watched all year. Despite all the hype surrounding your arena issues in Long Island, I’ve got to say that the Nassau Coliseum is one of my favorite buildings in the NHL. The Blues play there so rarely, I forget how much character it has. Truly one of the best remaining old-time buildings in the league. Makes me miss the old St. Louis Arena. Enjoy it while you can.
"You suck, but at least you know you suck. That's what I like about you." -Brett Hull
Agreed.
I try to tell people that. People rip on the Coliseum, but it reminds me of The Arena and the other old barns: If the hockey’s good, and the crowd’s there, that’s the kind of atmosphere I want. Bathroom lines and crowded corridors are secondary.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
:(
Already missing Rob Schremp Hockey.
Oh well.
Tank for Taylor Hall!
The shootout point is like a tank-piercing armament.
Lighthouse Hockey: Under contract through 2021, knees and hips be damned.
Another one
To Add to one goal the list.
Plus of course a good Biron game coincides with a no offense game from the Islanders.
Please NBC, Fire Milbury, Hire Roenick Full time!!!
