Ray Emery 2.0? Arturs Irbe 2.0?

Michael Leighton 2.0?

The Blues are hoping he's Cam Ward 2.0

I don't know why I hadn't thought of this before but why didn't he use THE MASK as his mask? That would've been smooooookin'!

In case anyone's wondering, here's the full membership of the "one game away, never won a ring" club:

NHL

Vancouver Canucks x3 (1994 Game 7, 2011 Games 6/7)
...don't do this, St. Louis.

MLB

Milwaukee Brewers x2 (1982 Games 6/7)
Texas Rangers x2 (2011 Games 6/7)

NBA

None... at the moment. Check back Sunday.

NFL

Minnesota Vikings x4 (1970, 1974, 1975, 1977)
Buffalo Bills x4 (1991, 1992, 1993, 1994)
Cincinnati Bengals x2 (1981, 1988)
Atlanta Falcons x2 (1998, 2017)
Carolina Panthers x2 (2003, 2015)
San Diego Chargers (1995)
Tennessee Titans (1999)
Arizona Cardinals (2008)

Most painful close calls:

HM: Nathan LaFayette
5. Montana-to-Taylor
4. One Yard Away
3. Wide Right
2. Nelson Cruz Sucks
1. 28-3

Gm7 tonight but I still dont feel so interested. Might catch the 3rd/end if Blues are winning or game is close. Random fact I saw. No team has ever scored more than 4 goals in a gm7 of the SCF. 3-1 seemed to be a very common score in these situations.

I dont think I've really even seen any kind of hockey game since April. Longest I've gone without watching hockey and not even missing it.

Weird realizing draft is next week and offseason really begins tomorrow.

20 mins away, Blues

Flyers fans rootin’ hard for ya. Know we have some diehards around here, bcruise and some others who aren’t active in this sub forum (onlybygrace, MizzouhRah I believe).

If anyone knows a thing or two about why you shouldnt be confident about a gm7 3rd period lead vs Boston, its Tyler Bozak.

Hopefully 3rd times a charm.
