The St. Louis Blues may have waved the white flag this season by trading Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O’Reilly, but that doesn’t mean head coach Craig Berube will let the rest of the hook off the hook. After the team took a 2-0 lead on Thursday, facing another draft lottery club in overtime, and his 3-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks, Berube said he had his best in a conversation with reporters that players were stripped from their bodies.
“Our best players don’t play without any passion, emotion, or inspiration,” Verve said after his side’s four-game losing streak. “They don’t play inspired hockey. You can’t play in this league without emotion, courage, and inspiration. They get a lot of money, but they don’t work. End of story. that’s it. That’s it in short. ” At the same press conference, Berube was asked about Jordan Kyrou and Robert Thomas, who have provided assists in the last four games together.
“It’s not good enough, not even close,” Berube said of Kyrou and Thomas, who signed an eight-year, $65 million contract extension this summer. After Craig said, “Many of our best players are out of work,” he was asked why.
Vancouver scores first with 5:33 remaining in the period. In a delayed penalty appeal, the Blues failed to take the penalty when it touched the line of war. Vancouver ignored it and hooked up with a backdoor game. The Blues challenged him for goalkeeper intervention and actually won. I don’t know what they’re based on because the collision is minimal and doesn’t really affect the game, but it helped St. Louis. Vancouver ended up having a strong play as they originally intended and, unfortunately, the Blues actually scored a narrow goal. Alexei Toropchenko slipped 5 holes on the breakaway road to make it 1-0. The second stage is a bit weird. Vancouver had the best chance to start the inning, but the Blues stopped them.
“I don’t know. I’ll have to ask them… they probably don’t care about the team. I don’t know.” Four years after he won the Stanley Cup, the St. Louis Blues (26-28-4) are looking for a makeover. Craig gave words of admiration to goaltender Jordan Binnington (38 saves) and his young players. When asked about 23-year-old Alexei Trobchenko’s diving and block shots, Verbe said he should be a role model for others. “Oh, 100 percent. Of course,” he said. “You should be very, very happy to have this guy on our team and he’s betting it. You should be inspired by it. They go out and get inspired to play.” The Blues have essentially stayed out of the Western Conference knockout stage by 56 points for the year, and management has signaled plans for the future by trading veterans Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O’Reilly earlier this month.
