Round 1, Game 2: Jim Montgomery Postgame Interview
St. Louis Blues Head Coach Jim Montgomery speaks to the media following a 2-1 Blues loss to the Winnipeg Jets in Round 1 of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs on April 21, 2025.
Montgomery done a great job overall this season, but their playoffs are going to be over before they started respectfully. If you don't win on Thursday your season is over.
I feel like this is just what you get as an 8 seed facing the president trophy winner with the consensus vesna goalie in net. You can only do so much with this current roster. Learn from this series try to win one or two and build in the off season and come back next year. I'm proud of the blues this season and I'm glad for all they've accomplished. Future looks bright
He can't say what's happening because the NHL would fine him. The NHL is just like the WWE, fixing games for the teams they want to move on in the playoffs, BIG FUCKING PERIOD!
Blue's are playing very well, the series is a lot of fun to watch. In retrospect, the outcome of these two games was never really in doubt. The better team is shining in the 3rd period and the Jets have met or exceeded what the Blue's are attempting to do. No 5v5 goals for the Blues, that says a lot.
Well, the men played their asses off to get to the playoffs, but they are out matched now. The jets are big, tough, and nasty. I wish the refs would stop some of their nastiness. I hope the Blues can pull out a game at home and don't get swept. I do question playing Snuggerud over some more experienced players in such an important series.
Wasted power plays! Way too many turn overs, poor tape to tape passes, no pressure defensively letting them in way too easy followed by lack of neutral pressure. * Get to work guys!
The Blues are playing great and giving Winnipeg all they want. I think we have to up our hitting to take their will to take another hit away. Also we're not getting players in front of the net enough and just putting shots on goal. Quit looking for completely open shots before we shoot. When you can shoot an open shot on net, take it and teammates need to blind the goalie or redirect shots, or get rebounds. We wasted to many power plays being too conservative with shots, can't score if you don't shoot. Go Blues.

Nice to see a coach giving credit to the opposite players mhm
Lord have mercy on us
Let's Go Blues!
we fucking blew again in the 3rd. Wake up
not going to win many games with 5on5 play that bad. 1 goal in 120minutes 5on5 aint even close to good enough.
Im not gonna lie. Im starting to give up on them at this point. I have faith, but we need to change things, dude, and fast. But for now, idk
Let's turn this around at home let's go blues 🤘🍔

Need to clog up the net. The Jets are doing a great job with clearing the front. All the Blues shots looked like they were at a low danger angle.
Wasted power plays! Way too many turn overs, poor tape to tape passes, no pressure defensively letting them in way too easy followed by lack of neutral pressure.

Its not as close as you think. If Jets go up by one, they just play defence only.
Blues are pretty good,but not Stanley cup,contenders!Even the cup they won a few years back,was questionable!
Enjoy it now Jets Fans because the future of the Central Division belongs to the Blues.
