Re: Blues re-sign Steve Ott; Reports: Sobotka to KHL

I can't stand Ott as a player. Never liked him. He's a dirty cheapshot type of player and I hate the thought of him being on our team for another season. Not to mention the money he is being paid. Sometimes you just shake your head and wonder if ownership / management are watching the same games you...

Re: An Arch on a Blues jersey?

Hey Peoria Blues, I never knew that! They should make it more prominent. Wait...back up. You didn't know the arch was on the 3rd jersey? Sigh. :facepalm: Since when do fans need to be experts on 3rd jerseys?? I bet there are plenty of hockey fans all over the nation who don't know about third jerse...

Re: Blues Re-Sign Brian Elliott to 3 year deal

I really like this extension / signing. I don't think they gave Ells a fair shake at the number 1 position when Halak was here....and I think he outplayed Halak the majority of the time he was here. I remember just one really bad slump at the beginning of the lockout year and I think that showed the...

Believe it or not, I listen to KMOX in the car if I have to (not home and blues game is on) and I live in Ironton, OH. Its got static but I can hear what is being broadcast most of the time.

I'll second that. I'll not flinch going to battle with any opponent out of the central this year. I think Hitch has the right mindset in trying to attain the Pres trophy. Home ice is going to play a big part in going all the way this year. Bring on the Avs and the Hawks. On a side note though, this ...

Re: Leopold Out 2 Months

I don't much care for Jordan Leopold anyway as a defenseman on our team. I would rather see Cole in the lineup anyway. On another note, I only hope the best for his recovery.

Re: Petro Negotiations

I've always disliked holdouts (and to a certain scope, arbitrations as well). As far as I'm concerned, if they can trade him for a young sniper or exceptional playmaker for our first line, I'm all for it. We are so deep at D, we can afford to loose him and in my honest opinion, Shatty will surpass h...

Re: Stanley Cup Final - Boston Bruins v Chicago Blackhawks

Hitch was right at the end of the season. We have a lot of growing to do as a 'team' and what that growth is for each individual is different and varied. I disagree that we are an AHL team compared to these two (that's a knee jerk reaction) but we are a young team and have some things to learn durin...

Re: The Future Of Our Goaltending

Halak impresses at times but usually it appears as though he could give a crap and doesn't exert the effort to compete and win. Add that to the fact that he is injury prone and im done with him as a Blue. Have been thru most of last year and this season. Elliots lackluster play at the beginning of t...

Re: Pre-Series Thread: Blues vs. Kings

I know our record vs. the Kings this year / last year during playoffs is not the great. If you look at the statistics though thru this season, our offense is much deeper (more people scoring more points) and our defense is much better with the signings of Bow and Leo. Its the one or two superstar of...

Re: So who would you prefer in the 1st round?

Are you kidding...The Red Wings. I want the opportunity to kick their butts in the post season (before anyone else has a chance to) and send them home crying before they jump ship to the Eastern Conference. This is our last chance to do that early on in the playoffs and we owe them big time for mult...

Halak does not deserve to be the playoff starter after his last 4 games including this one. This has to be the dumbest thing I have read in a long, long time. .927 over his last five. it is called goals allowed. And Halak is averaging what? 4 per game?? That is playoff goaltending??
