Unscientific 2012 Conference Finals Predictions
The Conference Semifinals . . . did not do me many favors as far as picks were concerned. I went six-for-eight in the Conference Quarterfinals . . . but not only did I miss the mark in both of my Western Conference Semifinals in number of games, but both teams I called as winners ....
The Donut Corner – Who Do You Root For Now?
So . . . just like that, the St. Louis Blues are out of the postseason. Playoff beards are shaved, hidden injuries are being revealed, and now the ownership situation is finally coming to a resolution. But many of us – myself included – will still be watching the National Hockey League postseason intently, like...
Fight Card – “F***IN’ SHHHHHHHHHH!”
That series between the St. Louis Blues and Los Angeles Kings really sucked, eh? At least Chris Stewart gave us something to chuckle about in conclusion . . . first, handing Jordan Nolan’s ass to him, then telling the crowd to be quiet.
Fight Card – Mike Richards Beats Up An Old Guy, 05-03-12
Sure, this series between the St. Louis Blues and Los Angeles Kings is going to hell in a handbasket incredibly fast. The good news is that the Blues are not yet eliminated, and they DID show some spirit in their 4-2 loss last night. The bad news . . . well, the Blues are trailing...
The Donut Corner – Giving Up Is For Losers
The St. Louis Blues played well enough to win Game One but lost, then turned in their worst performance at the worst possible time in Game Two. Both games were at home, and the combination results in a 2-0 series deficit in this best-of-seven Western Conference Semifinals series with the Los Angeles Kings. If you’re...
Fight Card – Wasting Tyler’s Time (King-Crombeen), 04-30-12
So now, we St. Louis Blues fans obviously know who Dwight King is after two games in this series, apart from being DJ King’s brother (and possible condo-mate). So when BJ Crombeen had his opportunity to go after the young Los Angeles Kings forward with fists, he took it running . . . too bad...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues-Kings Western Conference Semifinals
It started with a bang for the San Jose Sharks, but thankfully for our St. Louis Blues, their effort ended with a loud thud. The boys in blue are through to the Western Conference Semifinals after five tooth-and-nail games, losing 3-2 in double overtime in Game 1, winning 3-0 in a violent Game 2, winning...
Unscientific 2012 Second Round Predictions
Well, that was some kind of interesting Conference Quarterfinal round of the playoffs. It wasn’t nearly as good as the first round of last year’s playoffs, but it was very topsy-turvy, which always makes things extremely exciting. My Eastern Conference bracket took a beating, but despite that . . . picks-wise, I was able to...
The Donut Corner – Bring On The Kings
My apologies for the lack of a Donut Corner piece last week, as yours truly got seriously caught up in the playoff run and some real life situations. It is back again. The St. Louis Blues are through to the Western Conference Semifinals, now set to face the Los Angeles Kings in a series that...
Fight Card – Stewart vs. Wingels, 04-21-12
Five games. Four St. Louis Blues wins. Five fights between the Blues and San Jose Sharks – three at the end of Game Two, another before that late-game pile-up and one more in the decisive game. Speaking of decisive, the fight that happened in Game Five was very one-sided.
