Just here for the meltdown. Yeo won't make it to Halloween if this power play nightmare continues.

Re: Blues to Sign Patrick Maroon

Gotta hand it to Doug, that's a pretty nice group of forwards. He held up his end; it's on the players and Yeo now. No excuses allowed.

Re: ROR a Blue

Good move IMO. Improvement by subtraction and clearing space sending Berglund and Sobotka away. Glad they are gone. With O'Reilly under contract for awhile, Thompson and those picks are worth the cost. Schenn, O'Reilly, Thomas, Bozak is a good group at center. Amen. Agree with every sentence. Way t...

Playoffs discussion

I've already accepted the Blues will never win the Stanley Cup. It's much easier this way. To me that will never be "amplified" more than the 2000 Playoffs. The Mike Yeo era (or area) isn't even a blip. Get him some players. If they still can't score, hurray you guys will get your wish. He'll be fir...

Re: Playoffs discussion

So you are saying a 30+ increase in goals scored isn't significant? Seriously?? That many extra goals would have easily had the Blues in the playoffs. Yeo doesn't get offense out of teams. Show me when he has. If it doesn't translate to playoff success, hell no it's not significant. And the great C...

The Wild are not any better since his firing. I don't care how many regular season goals they've scored. Three consecutive first round losses. I bet Boudreau would have loved for Dubnyk to play "out of his head." Look, if they have another rough year, he will be fired. 2018-19 is a big season for ev...

Re: Playoffs discussion

Well, I wouldn't expect any coach to get much offense out of the bottom 9 forwards he had to skate out there. The Blues' forward depth was trash all season. Thomas could be up next year, maybe Kyrou. Doug said he's going to make changes. The depth SHOULD improve. If they get a top 6 and still can't ...

Re: Playoffs discussion

Who said I was counting Jay Bouwmeester? Literally everyone that posts here knows he is washed up. Robby Fabbri is a top 6 forward and was a lightning rod for a WCF team. Big loss. Paul Stastny is a top 6 forward and what's worse, he plays a position in which the Blues are woefully shallow. Once he ...

Re: Playoffs discussion

Haha c'mon man. The Blues have been consistently injury riddled since he took the job. The guy's got his faults, but even the most staunch Yeo detractors could admit that.

And yes, I know Suter and Parise are hurt. Doesn't make their demise any less amusing. #PlayersWin #PlayersLose

Another strong playoff showing by the Minnesota Wild. Boudreau really turned them around.

Re: Offseason Game Plan: Salary cap & etc.

I read a Player's Tribune column written by Pietrangelo towards the end of the season (recommended read if you haven't), and he mentioned playing in juniors with JT (along w/ Stamkos and Del Zotto). I realize that's grasping @ straws, but at least there's a connection. Agreed that the Blues should b...

Re: GDT Game 80: 4/4/18|7:00 PM CT|vs Blackhawks|NBCSN/KMOX

That sucked, but at least that didn't happen in game 7 of a Cup Final. Can always be worse, but these guys try like hell to make it so. I don't have the energy to make excuses for the goalie, coach, etc. It's whatever.

Don't worry, we have ole Doug to right the ship this summer (projectile vomits).

It's kinda funny that 3-4 weeks ago we were talking about these guys tanking. Now it's "who would you rather play in the playoffs?" What a time to be alive. I wouldn't mind Nashville for the reasons listed above, but put me in the "passing Minnesota" camp. Winnipeg's rink will be jumping, but I'll t...

Yeah, every game is tough for the Blues. I'm just saying, they're missing their best player. It'll probably help. I realize the Bruins are good, guys. Schwartz is hunting. It's only a matter of time for him. 91, he's a head scratcher. Almost feel like he's been nursing a minor injury all year. Agree...

And Ottawa scored 7 goals on Tampa the game before that. And the Panthers shut out the Bruins the game before that. What are we to make of those games?

It's an advantage for the Blues that Bergeron isn't playing.
