Hitch!! A Blue for life!
that '11-'12 team is the 4th best goals against/game in a single season and the best over an 82 game season (1.89 GAA). Truly incredible how little they gave up. Shame they couldn't score the same way.
Wait, I thought Blues was already a singular noun describing a musical genre, not a pluralization of a color.
I think it was 2011 but we lost in the second round to LA. The STRONG defense and killer goaltending with very good offense. That was the team with the most potential in my opinion. LA was JUST…UN..STOPPABLE. But I love Hitches explanation for this. Thanks for all the great memories 😀
I wish that roster had won a cup too. Steen, Backes, Oshie were my favorites
Edit to add: I’ll never forget Hitchcock saying he’ll have the power play fixed in two practices.
