The game has been over for almost a whole day and the local paper has no evidence we even played.


Baseball fans, stay the (Frank) away after the season is over, we don't need you scalping our tickets when we are rolling ass.
Hell even NHL.com and Yahoo sports and ect havn't even cared about our 4-0-0 just hanging off the nuts of the Avs and Sharks. Hell even toronto is getting more love than us, lol.

Sharks game is going to be intense!

ESPN now has us ranked #1 on their power rankings.

Also, not only do the Blues get goalies pulled, they also get them put on waivers. As was the case with Biron this morning.

Despite the #1 ranking, San Jose and Colorado both scare the crap out of me. Those are two very solid teams. To be fair, I'd rank the top 3 as San Jose, Colorado and St. Louis in that order.

I'd order them that way as well. Of course, it's entirely pointless to rank anybody after just 4-5 games.

Does Colorado have Peyton Manning playing Center on their team? I can't see their start holding up. They're an improved team but I think they're playing a little ahead of themselves early on. Maybe I'm wrong, though. We'll see.

I think the entire Avs roster knows that if they do something stupid like lose, Roy will blow up in the locker room and maybe kill someone.

Of those 3 teams, if there's any team that's destined to fall off it's Colorado. Their D and 'tending is suspect. They've got great skill players, but that can only go so far. I could be wrong. Maybe Roy will be the difference, but I just think SJ and the Blues are deeper teams.

The Blues have gotten their very first 4-0 start in franchise history, and while that's a fantastic accomplishment, I'm very surprised they've never managed to do this before in 46 years. Frankly, that's kind of pathetic. Don't get me wrong, it's a great accomplishment, and I'm very proud of this team. But come on - all those years with Pronger, Hull, Joseph, Liut, Hull, MacInnis, Oates, Tkachuk, we've never managed to win a measly first 4 games in a row before? Colorado just had a 5-0 start, and they've managed to have another 5-0 within the last 10 seasons. San Jose has a 5-0 start, which they have done before, and they're a much newer team. And now, the Blues remain the longest team in the NHL without ever winning the cup. I really hope this is the year Blues really break some records. They are due for much more than they've earned.
