Let's Go Blues

Yep, I was thinking the same.Also, Bylsma's there, and I know it's a long shot, but maybe Babcock could be available for us too (If I didn't miss anything). To me, this is the season I'd like to see Hitch prove himself. Granted, we had a hell of a series agains the Hawks last year, but I'd like to w...

And so on and so forth.

That's an amazing one, remember reading that in my teens, and really got captivated. Have you read Taipan from the same guy?

Doesn't make any sense. Retirement homes maybe....?

*gets coat*

Problem is, there's a very delicate balance to this team, the results of injuries and line juggling clearly show that. And although I'm not saying this officially yet, but seeing games from recent couple of months, reading what Hitch has to say (especially after losses), I'm starting to lose confide...

Totally agree w/ Stastny. It's what's plagued this team ( and it's fanbase ) for years. Hmph. Disagree. Problems for two groups are not the same. Fans' fundamental problem is a team that never wins anything. Makes them negative and ready for things to go wrong. Truth is, Blues fans (reminds me of M...

I don't know, this, coupled with someone at ESPN calling the Blues a genuine cup-contender, makes me feel a bit anxious....

Love these early games, these are the ones I could comfortably watch during evening time in Europe, and never once get to see any of them.... :D Didn't have the time to re-watch, not even the highlights, were the guys really that crap in the 3rd? Was it just switching off again, or were they that ti...

No way, simply because of the money he makes (Overpaid in my opinion), and mostly because of his personality possibly messing with the team-chemistry here, which seems to be quite good. Of course I don't know what led to this situation in Winnipeg, and maybe, just maybe, it's some sort of a reaction...

This game has shown us again who are the players who can pick up and carry the team when it struggles. I was reserving praise for Elliot so far, but last night he has shown that he's got a world class Vezina goalie in him. Schwartz is my real hero though, that move...dropped and lost my chin for a f...

Was alright for a start I guess, but to think if we'd have faced Rinne in net...
Doesn't matter, 2 points in the bag is what's most important in these games, and I still don't believe the Preds would be a threat in the playoffs anyway.

Just found this the other day

Overall I don't think he played particularly well last year at all, and he has been worse this year...aside from the last 7 or 8 games where he has played better. His problem is consistency. He can look great for a period, then make a bone head play (and I really mean a bone head play) that leads t...

I don't know. Really like him, and he put in a decent performance over the last few years, but I feel he'll never reach his true potential, that is, being a Norris-calibre player. Besides, as mentioned before, we have the defensive depth coming up for the future, so a few bodies would need to be mov...

Well, after all has been said, and knowing the luck of the Blues, I'm happy it's not more intense, and I don't have to worry about anyone breaking their spines during a pre-game skate.

I remember staying up late just to watch skills competition as a kid, waiting for Al to come up in the shooting contest, and enjoying the whole charade in the process. Nowadays I'm pretty meh about it. Anyway, thinking about it, I guess that's what it is, just some parade for the kids, who I'm sure ...

Thank you all :) Welcome to the boards! Glad to have you. What league does your Hungarian team play in and how are they doing this year? Please feel free to jump right in to the discussion and share your perspectives with us! In a Central-European league at the moment, called MOL League (named after...

Hi all, Hungarian fan here. Have to admit I've never even been to the US, but a huge hockey fan, and been following NHL and the Blues for almost a decade and a half now. My number one team is a Hungarian one, called Ferencváros, and the Blues became a team I'm rooting for too, when I first got into ...
