Yeah... confusing is a great word for the officiating tonight. Ticky-tack calls made at one point while clear penalties let go at other points... just weird. At least it was erratic all the way around, not favoring one side as we've already seen once this year.

I think Halak has looked relatively good. Better rebound control would be great, but he is making the saves he should, and a few he probably shouldn't. If we get goaltending like this in the playoffs, we should go far.

Sobotka leading the league in faceoff percentage (for guys who've taken more then 20). Just one more little thing he does great.

SOB line just looks great. As do Petro & JBo.

Steen is a beast.



Can't believe the 5 on 3, when the refs arm went up, it was almost right when Petro was hit, so I assumed they were calling a penalty on the Jets. Then the scrum happened, and I figured that they were going to even it up. When they announced interference on Roy I was very confused. Anyone seen video on the play?

I actually did see the Roy interference. It was near the front of the net while the puck was in the corner near Petro. Roy probably did interfere with the Jet defenceman, but he went down Soccer easy. I still have no idea why Morrow was so upset. It wasn't even a hard hit on Petro. I guess his view of the play was different. Maybe he thought there was a sloo-foot involved.

We need to get better transition from the 2 and 3 lines through the neutral zone. They seemed bogged up by a mediocre team last night between the blue lines. But as long as the SOB line keeps producing and Halak makes those timely saves, it will be alright.

Thanks, didn't notice Roy at all and was very surprised when he was called for interference. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the Petro hit either real time, and was surprised when the refs arm went up. My first thought was we were going on the power play. Really seemed strange that we were down 2 after all of that.

I'm a Jets fan...so as you can imagine I was less than thrilled with the final result...HOWEVER I like some of the Blues...Steen & Petro being the top 2!

Now first off the Jets are NOT a mediocre team!! They've got a lot of talent its just a means of putting it all together...and getting a new coach lol

It was a good game but I aint gonna be a homer and say you guys got lucky, the Blues outworked my Jets!! Good win..and we hope to face off again...

Season series so far is 1-1 See you guys again!
