Thomas missing what seemed like an open net the size of a swimming pool is just really indicative of so many (too many) missed opportunities and lackluster plays this season. The Blues too many times beat themselves. Good effort tonight though. This team is so very close to being top tier. They just need to FIX what's wrong whatever that is. How many penalties die Perunovich take tonight? All of them? How can he not score all season? What's really missing this year and last is goal production from our D. In past successful years it seemed like our D scored half the goals. What killed this team was losing our hottest and one of our very best players. Neighbours. He got hurt at the absolute WORST time of the season. So tough to lose him when we needed him the most. Whatever is wrong with Kappy (can't hit the net and can't execute) this player has ENORMOUS potential if lightning fast, makes great moves and then shoots wide constantly. I hope the Blues don't give up on him. We have a superstar here potentially. This Blues team has been so damn FRUSTRATING this season because Blues fan know that this team should be in the playoffs. It's a travesty.
Thanks to Binnington, Hofer, Thomas, Parayko, Neighbors, Saad, Toropcheko, and Kyrou (in the second half of the season when he cared) for making this a competitive team to watch. But, the most credit should go to Binnington and Hofer without whom this team doesn’t even get close to the playoffs.

Way to fight against the Stars boys, it shows some good character, and here's to making the playoffs next year!
Let's Go Blues!!!
