Re: Round One : St. Louis Blues v Minnesota Wild

But there most certainly is a calm confidence with the fan base right now...at least there is with most of the folks who pay close attention to the team. I think this hits the nail on the head. All other past playoff runs, have always had a proverbial chink in the armor of those teams. I can rememb...

Re: Can Elliott backstop us to a cup this year?

I'm kind of on the fence about who to start (not that its up to me thank goodness) but I say play the hot hand just as they've done all year. I know this is very unorthodox for a typical playoff team to date. I say if the 1A / 1B works for this team, let it ride. Both have had great stretches and bo...

Re: Round One : Nashville Predators v Chicago Blackhawks

As poorly as the Hawks have played, the Preds have been just as bad down the stretch. Hawks in 6.

Re: GDT #81: 4/9/15 | 7:00PM CST | v Blackhawks | NBCSN/KMOX

No one 'scares' me this year. There is lots of great...I repeat great competition this year but to be honest, I think the Blues are THE team to beat this year. Last year we beat the Blackhawks all regular season and got our butts handed to us in the post season. Playoffs are a different animal and e...

Re: Scoreboard Watching

3 games last night (Wednesday, Apr 8th), 3 shutouts: Columbus 5, Toronto 0 Washington 3, Boston 0 Dallas 4, Anaheim 0 Glad the Ducks lost. 1st Place in the West is still possible. I was looking at the possibility for 1st overall in the West this morning since the Ducks lost last night. With a win t...

Re: Poll: What coaching scenario would you prefer?

I don't thing the problem is with Hitch at all or his system. This issue has been creeping in for months now. Actually, (I know I'll get blasted for this) I think it is all on the players and a couple in particular. For a couple of months now, Tank has been coasting and cherry picking and not playi...

Re: Poll: What coaching scenario would you prefer?

I'd like a 6th option. Reevaluate this offseason. I'm adamantly opposed to firing him now, because I think it's a mistake to do that so close to the playoffs in a year that we've had so much success. This offseason, I'm open to the idea of it. But, it depends how we do in the playoffs (and how much...

Re: GDT #74: 3/24/15 | 6:00PM CST | @ Penguins | FSMW/KMOX

They mentioned in the post game, but Jake Allen has been phenomenal in his last 10 starts, most on the road. I think they referenced a 1.89 GAA (give or take) in those starts. Don't look now, but do we have a #1 swap on our hands soon? Blues stuck with it and that was good to see. Steener was a fre...

Re: Scoreboard Watching

We did kinda catch the leaders in the west... 2pts. back of Nashville and 4pts. back from the Ducks and we have 2 games in hand. We are right there. Just need to make good on our games in hand.

The Devils got a good value for him. I'm glad the Blues didn't bite if that was the asking price.

Re: Blues Eyeing Coyotes/Devils?

Ive been thinking for the last couple of weeks that the Blues would go after Jagr. I've never been a huge fan but you gotta admit that it would be a great locker room presence for leadership in winning (the cup) and for a 3rd / 4th line guy that would be great. If we could unload any of the personne...

Re: THE OFFICIAL RELIGION THREAD

Its really funny how people want to eliminate God from our everyday life at every turn. To love God and to be a disciple of God is a constant exercise in less of me and more of 'you' (God) and to try and live this everyday. When men / women rely on themselves they all too often leave God completely ...
