VIDEO: Jordan Binnington Trolls Reporter Over Lame Question After Game 6
By Scott Rogust
The St. Louis Blues had the opportunity of a lifetime on Sunday night-- the chance to win the Stanley Cup on their home ice in Game 6. Instead, they were trounced by the Boston Bruins 5-1, forcing a decisive Game 7 on Wednesday. For a majority of the game, the Blues faced a 1-0 deficit, but the floodgates opened in the third period following Brandon Carlo's bouncing puck goal. St. Louis goaltender Jordan Binnington was asked by a reporter about what happened on Boston's second goal, and he was having none of it. In fact, he flipped the script on the reporter.
Reporter: "What happened on the second goal?"

Binnington: "Uh, did you watch it?"
Reporter: *head nod*
Binnington: "did it bounce?"
Reporter: "uh huh"
Binnington: "that's a good eye."#StanleyCup pic.twitter.com/RzDZkV7OM9
Talk about awkward tension in the air.
Binnington was no doubt disappointed that he was unable to stop Carlo's "knuckle puck" shot. Hearing that question irritated him, which in turn, created an uneasy interaction.
