Let's Go Blues

Is it possible that Mike Yeo pulled a proverbial Mike Keenan on the team? I read somewhere that Yeo was a divisive force in the lockerroom in Minnesota but that's speculation moreso than anything. I think the Blues lack of identity (I'd call it lack of direction, myself) is from the current coaching...

The record shows you defending the Blues not scoring goals as if it's somehow the goaltender's fault. Actually, the record shows me pointing out that Allen's stats have been shit and that lack of offense doesn't explain away a 3.44 GAA - but I apparently don't read at your level. You wrote a really...

The lack of moves by the Blues at the trade deadline has me wondering if our problem is we overvalue our players. Well, let me clarify- I already KNOW the front office overvalues the players (look at the production we get compared to the contracts we pay). Even with that, I think I personally may h...

Love the Stastny trade. Reminiscent of Shatty last season knowing we weren't going to re-sign him and we got a first and a prospect for him?! Color me pleased. About the only thing that surprised me today was that McDonough was actually traded. He's only 28, I just don't get it. If anything I would...

Blues stop the skid and climb back into the playoff hunt. Start Hutton. Blues 4 Wild 0 We are currently behind LA and Calgary for a wild card berth, both of which also play tonight. LA plays Vegas (in Vegas) and Calgary plays Dallas (in Dallas), so the odds favor both of those teams losing. Calgary...

Good lord, it's just a slump. All yall need to calm down. Or, ... maybe it's more than that. Maybe it's time to take a cold, hard look in the mirror and see what this team has become: a squad with a great 1st line that's having to carry the team, a decent 2nd line that can't carry the team if the 1...

-almost- called this one, missed it by one goal :/. Oh well, let's hope the Good Guys build off of this win.

Whoa, let's keep it clean in here.

Annihilate

It's the um, severe form of "Annihilate"

Blues come out and annilate the Sens so they can be lackluster the next game. Book it.

Sens 0

As for bringing players up who are not entirely ready , DO NOT BRING THEM UP. Would you be willing to argue that Sammy Blais is less ready than Chris Thorburn? Just because Thorburn looks like Jesus doesn't make him so. We don't need to revert to Hitchcock era hockey just because Schwartz is injure...

Good lord, it's just a slump. All yall need to calm down. Elite teams don't slump for this long, injuries or not. They pull up their bootstraps, dig into their organizational depth, and come out alive on the other end. This team is playing like Schwartz is the only guy who can win games. His injury...

Vegas is playing themselves right out of long term success. No matter what they do at the deadline they’ll blow it. Either they keep Neal and Perron (and others) and ultimately screw themselves out of prime draft picks or trade them both when it’s too late and end up aggravating the fan base and mi...

Yeah, I thought it went in too and thought it was obvious.... Not trying to stir things, but it's as if the NHL is really doing everything they can to make Vegas a successful team, from their schedule being front stacked so they have a really good record coming in (Didn't they play Arizona like 3 ga...

For such a low money contract, and at his age, the fact that he thought Calgary was even remotely closer to winning the Cup than St. Louis better be some bulletin board material for the entire season. I agree Glen but my guess is he is just looking to sign in the offseason with the best money/contr...

Overall Jagr cause he's on the Flames and he's, well, Jagr

For the Blues, Steen, because, well, I like him.

Armstrong said (via Blues website article on signings) that this was mostly for depth, that the young guys would get playing time, and this ensures that inexperienced guys in the AHL aren't forced up too early. We'll see how true that is. If it really is, then fine I guess. If they play over young ...

I'm seriously considering calling into the Boomer and Carton Show on Monday morning because I know Boomer will be over the moon about getting Shattenkirk whom he no doubt sees as a huge improvement over Dan Girardi. He'll need someone to temper his expectations. Hey Boomer, you know how good Shatt ...

Bergy coming back in December will be like having a trade and if he comes back like he did from his last surgery, I will be very, very pleased. Is that you, Doug? Seriously, though, I think the frustration is that this is the 2nd time he has injured himself during the offseason. Accidents happen in...
