Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Jets, 02-25-12
I love wins that bust slumps. What the St. Louis Blues did Thursday night against the Nashville Predators definitely counts as a slump-busting win, and a great way to kick off a long road trip. 60 minutes of regulation play and five minutes of overtime were not enough to decide it, but two goals in...
Q’s Cuties: Blues @ Thrashers 12-21
Welcome to tonight’s cutie watch! Last night was another disappointing home game for fans, but at least all of our starting defensemen are healthy for the moment. It was great to see Polak back in action and playing well. Pietrangelo also made his comeback last night. The Blues offense, however, did not look great last...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Thrashers – 12-21-10
Two disappointments occurred in last night’s game. First off, the Blues lost 3-1 to the Vancouver Canucks on home ice. Secondly, they did not engage in fisticuffs despite many good opportunities to do so. By virtue of a fight last night by the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Blues now stand in a tie for second in...
Throwdown Lowdown – Thrashers @ Blues – 10-30-10
There were no fights in Thursday’s 3-0 Blues win over the Nashville Predators, but there was an incident involving quite possibly my least-favorite NHL player in the history of ever – yes, Jordin Tootoo was at it again, this time blasting Carlo “Splodeybones” Colaiacovo with a hit that should get him suspended (which obviously means...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Blackhawks – 10-18-10
Saturday’s Blues loss to the Dallas Stars held true to the Throwdown Lowdown report posted Saturday morning – the Stars had yet to fight during this young season, and they did not drop the gloves with The Note on Saturday. So the Stars remain one of two teams in the NHL yet to fight on...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Avalanche 2-8-10
For those of you that care about football (remember, I’m a football guy first) . . . hopefully you enjoyed the Super Bowl and the commercials that came along with it. Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints for a well-played Super Bowl and a victory that was earned and not handed. What a game! And...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Canucks 1-27-10
As expected, the fists flew in Stampede City on Monday night. As anticipated, one of the fights was between Cam Janssen and Brandon Prust. And as we all know he can, Janssen took down Prust, with an impressive finish to boot. Unfortunately, Janssen got involved with Brian McGrattan earlier in a matchup that proved to...
