Let's Go Blues

I'm not sure why everyone so excited for having Kevin Shattenkirk back in the lineup this trade suxx coxx bumpity bump the sequel Yep. So far... you're spot on. Not that Edmundson was anything amazing to lose. But losing a decent prospect in Bokk might be the worst end of it... so we'll see how he ...

Who knows? But Petro said he trusts them and he's been with them since "the beginning". So I guess there's some loyalty there. The fact that Petro gave the impression he wasn't really involved with negotiations and that he'd just get updates, makes me think he trusted them to get the best deal for h...

Jeff Ponder... occasional forum poster and my co-host on Lets Go Blues Radio (this site's LIVE weekly vodcast/podcast...the link is up top), has a YouTube page with tons of old Blues games. And he's constantly adding more. https://www.youtube.com/user/JPonder94 He may have something. I'll let him kn...

I don’t get pulling the trigger. There wasn’t anything wrong with Eddy and if Pietrangelo walked there were other guys in the pipeline who could step up. If they weren’t ready then you sign a UFA to a 1-2 year deal while the kid(s) finish seasoning. Trading for Faulk and extending him as he was is ...

Word is “multiple” Blues tested positive. I’m still hunting for answers as to who it was. Good tactic, get everyone sick now, get immunity and then steamroll the league all the way to to Cup. Edit: Sounds like 4 players and 1 coach, connected to a visit to a bar. Still no idea who the lucky 5 are. ...

Would be great if this could be kept civil, as this topic has enraged some people. But do you wear a mask? And why or why not? The scientific/medical community recommends masks, but not to necessarily protect yourself, but to protect others. The thinking is that if everyone wears a mask, then everyo...

So many great little lines in this... "My girlfriend thinks Ryan O'Reilly is hot. She's not wrong." :lol: "And they have a Big Rig. We don't have a Big Rig." AH: "What we need is Bobby Orr right now! But he's dead!" (Woman sobbing) Consoling woman: "It's ok. Bobby Orr isn't dead." :lol: :lol: :lol:...

I'm all for the NHL resuming play, providing it can be done safely and without too many incidents. And I 100% disagree with thinking the cup champ would be illegitimate this year. That's crazy to me. This is the healthiest in NHL history that all playoff teams have been heading into the playoffs. Ma...

I re-watched game 7 in its entirety for the first time since watching it live. It is absolutely incredible that we won that game. We got dominated most of the first period, good portions of the 2nd and most of the 3rd. Binnington played out of his mind. We had 3 shots in the first period and 2 of t...

Just received word that a former colleague died a few days ago from the virus. It doesn't really hit home until it hits home, I guess.

Man, that sucks.
I haven't known anyone personally that has died from it yet. But I'm sure that will change eventually.

Maybe the Winter Classic is the season opener?

That has been discussed...or rumored to be possible. Which...I'd be 100% fine with. Kind of a cool way to kick off the season.
But holy hell is it going to be weird to not have hockey in Nov & Dec.

Jeff & I sit down with HHOF'er, multiple Stanley Cup Winner, & former St. Louis Blue, Grant Fuhr. This was a lot of fun!
(I had some connectivity issues, (my ethernet cable was unplugged) so I was a few minutes late joining the show)

Available as a podcast and on YouTube...and available right here on LetsGoBlues.com as well.

Been wanting to do one of these for a while...finally had some time and the motivation.
Enjoy.

The rumor running around is teams will be allowed one compliance buyout. Given Armstrong really wants to re-sign Petro, that compliance buyout thing is very likely and Steen will be gone. So.. if the compliance buyout happens, that's an immediate 5.75M in cap relief. If that ends up being true, and...

Times are really tough on small businesses right now. That goes without saying. Unfortunately, Center Ice Brewery is struggling just like everyone else. It would be great if those who are in the area, could support them by ordering some beer to go. They have curbside pickup. You don't even have to g...

This is bonkers. Never seen anything like it. Saw an interview with a guy in Italy who said things weren't even like this in Europe at the start of WW2. And you know, I have that same eerie feeling that I had driving home from work on 9/11. Like there is something very serious happening and we're ju...

We had an emergency meeting yesterday after work, what to do if we close and so on. Normally I wash my hands before I leave because I’ve handled a couple hundred papers and been dealing with bacteria infested teenagers all day, but I waited until after the meeting. Anyway, my eye starts itching so ...

Don't blame the President for shit China could have prevented.

Just can't help injecting your political view, can you?

That's what you took out of what I said?
I didn't blame him for anything in here. I just stated a fact.
But I'd be happy to get into that if you like.
