Show notes

(00:00-28:57) Chris Kerber joins the show and he's as disappointed as the rest of us this morning. In the end, the 6 on 5 situation got the Blues again. The opportunity was there. What are the Blues doing that causes so many problems in 6 on 5 situations. Steve Yzerman and Jon Casey from nearly 30 years ago still stings.

(29:05-46:58) Jackson's return music theme. Doug wants people to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. James Carlton in studio. Positivity will NOT be allowed today. Harrison's Brother Master is especially negative today. Sometimes it's just easier to watch alone. Gruden's ready for next year with the Blues. The WTF line. Pete DeBoer 9-0 in Game 7's. Monty is 1-3. Blues outscored the Jets 27-21 in the series.

(47:08-1:01:27) We need to be uplifted, not wallow in our pity. Let the emotion fester. Tim's gonna bring us into his bedroom for a second. His wife threw her chapstick and broke the TV last night when the Jets tied the game. Need a foam brick to throw at the television. Texting into this show brings pride to your in-laws. When will the next playoff game in St. Louis be? People offering up their TVs to Tim.

Show notes

(00:00-17:22) Absolutely gut-wrenching end to the Blues season in double overtime last night. Up by two with two minutes left and couldn't hold on Pavel Buchnevich's icing. Giving up a goal with 1.6 seconds left. The Blues 6 on 5 problems rear their ugly head again. Jim Montgomery didn't wanna talk about it.

(17:30-36:51) Audio of the TNT call of the game-tying goal. Kerb's radio call of the double overtime winner. Blues were gassed on that final shift. Jets playing with 5 D after Morrisey went out. Some fans seem just happy to have been in that position.

(37:00-1:03:42) Jackson is really dialed right now. You'll have to wait until tomorrow to watch Tim and Doug flirt. Doug's favorite toy is a tank or a football.
