Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Red Wings 01-23-12
In a game I felt the St. Louis Blues HAD to win to keep their reputation as a league-wide menace, the team held their end of the deal by downing the Buffalo Sabres 4-2, despite an extremely sluggish first period and a few late calls that left a lot to the imagination. While the two...
Throwdown Lowdown – Sabres @ Blues 01-21-12
When you find ways to win, you give fans hope. The St. Louis Blues keep finding ways to win. This time, it was a barrage of shots, none of which passed the goal line until late in the third period of a 1-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday night. And we saw a...
Throwdown Lowdown – Wild @ Blues 01-14-12
To continue my remembrance of when the St. Louis Blues sucked at hockey back in the middle to late ‘00’s, back then a 3-2 overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks would not have been viewed as a disappointment. Now? It is a disappointment, which is a good sign of where this club is headed going...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Canadiens 01-07-12
Total domination . . . that was what the St. Louis Blues displayed in a 4-0 shellacking of the visiting Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night. The only bad part of that game was that while there were some moments of testiness in the battle – especially between Cody McLeod and, fresh off his Injured Reserve...
Blues Extend Reaves’ Contract – What Could This Mean?
During one quiet morning in Trigonometry class back in high school I sat collecting my thoughts before the day started. Mr. Creighton’s Trig class was known as one of the ” harder classes” to get a good grade in and I was determined to do my best knowing that with out maximum effort I would do poorly (as I am not...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Avalanche 01-07-12
What a rally! The St. Louis Blues have proven to be a never-say-die team under Ken Hitchcock, and they proved it again by rallying from a 3-1 deficit after a HORRIBLE second period to win 4-3 over the Edmonton Oilers with a flurry of goals to begin the third period. The only bad part about...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Oilers 01-05-12
2012 starts with a bang for our St. Louis Blues, which is great, considering how horrendously 2011 ended. They were able to take the battle to the soon-to-be-not Phoenix Coyotes in a 4-1 rout. There were several opportunities for a fight, but none came to fruition. This, despite Paul Bissonnette and BJ Crombeen being virtually...
Throwdown Lowdown – Coyotes @ Blues, 01-03-12
Talk about a year ending with a thud. First, it was the shootout loss on Friday. Then, the St. Louis Blues laid an egg in Joe Louis Arena against the hated Detroit Red Wings in a 3-0 losing effort. The best thing that happened in this game (and I will avoid the issue of illegal...
Throwdown Lowdown – Predators @ Blues, 12-30-11
40 minutes of awesome, 20 minutes of fail. That would describe what happened Tuesday night in Detroit as the St. Louis Blues let a 2-0 (then a 2-1) lead slip through their hands in the third period. To their credit, the Detroit Red Wings played magnificently (especially that goaltender) in the third period to earn...
