Throwdown Lowdown – Red Wings @ Blues, 04-04-12
Backing into the division title? Yeah, that happened, but that shouldn’t diminish what the St. Louis Blues have accomplished all season. What SHOULD diminish things a bit is what exactly happened in their home game with the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, looking a bit out-of-sorts in a 5-2 loss to the worst team in...
Throwdown Lowdown – Wild @ Blues, 02-18-12
That was a nice little bounce-back game, I’d say. You could say the St. Louis Blues were playing a weakened New York Islanders team, and I would probably agree with that (top goaltender Evgeni Nabokov could not play due to illness), but a 5-1 win over a team in playoff contention in the Eastern Conference...
Throwdown Lowdown – Stars @ Blues 01-16-12
The St. Louis Blues can win a game in the shootout? Holy crap! And so it was done on Saturday, as the Blues played the Minnesota Wild to a 2-2 tie in regulation and a scoreless five-minute overtime period, and took the victory in a shootout, most undoubtedly the single dumbest way I can think...
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 @ Wild 11-19-11
You give a solid effort, you hold your opponent somewhere around 20 shots, and in the National Hockey League, generally you will win even if the officiating may appear to be somewhat suspect. The St. Louis Blues proved that theory correct on Thursday, knocking off a Florida Panthers team that had been playing very well...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild 11-05-11
Well hey, whaddaya know? The St. Louis Blues came out clicking and played a mostly-solid 60 minutes at home last night, taking home a 3-2 victory over a jet-lagged Vancouver Canucks squad. And there even was a fight in the game! Scott Nichol – perhaps known more for his ability in the face-off dot than...
Throwdown Lowdown – Wild @ Blues 03-29-11
I didn’t see much of the game on Saturday due to bowling obligations (and by the way, my right arm frickin’ hurts), but I heard it was a pretty epic time during the Blues’ 6-3 victory over the Minnesota Wild. Well, when you score six goals and all six are by six different players, that...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild 03-26-11
Sure, the Edmonton Oilers are probably the worst team in the National Hockey League, but that doesn’t make the dominating 4-0 Blues win over them any less sweet. “Dominating” may not be the right word, but the absolute correct word might be one I won’t mention on this blog (but I probably would at Game...
Throwdown Lowdown – Canucks @ Blues, 02-14-11
I would wish everyone a grand Valentine’s Day, but the fact is that I do not like Valentine’s Day. In fact, I will be wearing all black today in honor of Stupid Love Saint Day. GO ME! Now, on to the business at hand . . . . That was NOT the big weekend the...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild, 02-12-11
That was quite the disheartening 5-4 overtime loss by the Blues to the Minnesota Wild. At the very least, the Blues got one point out of the ordeal, but they could have had SO much more. Such is the 2010-2011 season, as it seems. There was a fight between Brad Winchester and Brad Staubitz in...
