The Final Note

Last night, T.J. Oshie hit the final note against the San Jose Sharks, giving the Blues a 3-2 win.  With 6.6 seconds left in regulation, Carlo Colaiacovo fired a turnaround snapper right into the back of the net to tie the game at two.  I jumped up off the couch and screamed in unison with my roommate, scaring the crap out of our girlfriends. I had trouble falling asleep, to say the least.

The Blues were relentless until the very end.  They stole the win right from under the Sharks. They were desperate for points and they wanted more, plain and simple.  That desperation is what made them nearly unstoppable the second half of last season. Perhaps that's what the Blues need...desperation. That just might light the fire once again...

They played and won as a team last night.  There was no star player, in my opinion.  It was a complete team effort and victory...an "ole time hockey game."

Blues, please feed off this win, please...Many people have said this win reminded them of last season's game against Boston.  That was the "turn-around" game of the season that sparked the fire.  Let this be a reminder to the team AND the fans...this team is not just built on expectation, but execution.

LET'S GO BLUES!!!
