Observations From Blues' 5-2 Loss Vs. Bruins

Key Highlights

• Jordan Binnington, who was pulled in his last start when he allowed two goals on five shots in a 4-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Monday, made 22 saves. Aleksanteri Kaskimaki made his NHL debut and was on the ice for the Buchnevich goal (more on him later). Let’s go into the game observations: * Where is the effort?
• – Rarely do I question effort.
• It’s usually execution that does in a game. But on Thursday, effort comes into play. The Blues are coming off having two days off between games, a rarity.
• And they won’t have that again until Christmas break.
• So Thursday started a stretch of 11 games in 19 days. AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementSo being on front end of it, where was the urgency?
