Throwdown Lowdown – Blues-Kings Western Conference Semifinals

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...

Campaign Support: Vote for Perron & Oshie to be on the Cover of NHL 13

- As a long time support of EA Sports titles, I will surely pick up NHL 13 when it comes out. Hopefully it will have a face on the cover my four year old can recognize. St. Louis Blues forwards TJ Oshie and David Perron have qualified for the NHL 13 Cover Vote Quarterfinals. Basically...

GameRecap: Blues Split Back-To-Back Set

Just like night and day, the St. Louis Blues performances against the Anaheim Ducks and LA Kings were very different. The 7-4 loss to the Ducks was a perpetuation of the same trends miring the Blues below the waterline. Great stretches of play where little playing was to be found. Far too many passengers on...

Throwdown Lowdown – Kings @ Blues – 12-16-10

Throwdown Lowdown – Kings @ Blues – 12-16-10

For two main reasons, I dislike the Detroit Red Wings.  For one, they’re always better than the Blues, as last night’s 5-2 final would attest.  Secondly, they rarely drop the gloves.  And they didn’t last night.  Screw that.  The Blues have collected 30 fighting majors, good for third place in the NHL standings by themselves. ...
