Throwdown Lowdown – Blue Jackets @ Blues, 03-31-12
Well, the division title is still in range for the St. Louis Blues, as they gained a point in a game they probably didn’t deserve to get one in after losing to the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 in a free-throw shooting contest. But while there were a few mild skirmishes, there were no fights to speak...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Blue Jackets, 03-11-12
Beat the teams you’re supposed to beat. The Columbus Blue Jackets, no offense to them, are a team the St. Louis Blues are supposed to beat, and after a shaky beginning, that’s exactly what happened in a relatively dominant 4-1 win in the first leg of a home-and-home with our blue-coated division mates. We even...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blue Jackets @ Blues, 03-10-12
First place overall in the entire National Hockey League? That’s totally awesome. The St. Louis Blues made that happen with help from a 3-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks. The downside? Well, partially because George Parros was in the press area for this game, there were no fighting majors handed out during the contest. I’ll...
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 – Islanders @ Blues, 02-16-12
And . . . thud. The St. Louis Blues had every opportunity to extend the winning streak to five games against the Central cellar-dwelling Columbus Blue Jackets, but just never capitalized on opportunities given and overall played very sloppily in a 2-1 loss in Ohio’s capital on Tuesday night. Derek Dorsett, who acted like an...
Fight Card – Crombeen vs. Dorsett 02-14-12
I’m not going to let this go before saying that Derek Dorsett was acting like a general douche all game. If you think Andy McDonald is going to retaliate, you’re living in a land made of marshmallows and candy canes. And it sure as hell isn’t Christmas, Derek. All that said, the early scrap between...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Blue Jackets, 02-14-12
Why not the St. Louis Blues. This team is white hot of late, thanks to some luck and some spectacular defensive play. Their 3-0 shutout victory over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday was a prime example of the kind of play the Blues are showing that makes experts and fans alike wonder if...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Blue Jackets 11-27-11
I love hard-fought victories. The St. Louis Blues were able to eke out a win over the Calgary Flames by a 2-0 score, and a fight with an unexpected result took place. Ryan Reaves, starting to assert himself as one of the league’s big bruisers, took on one of the toughest SOB’s in hockey today...
Throwdown Lowdown – Avalanche @ Blues 04-05-11
What an IMPRESSIVE win by the Blues over the despised Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday. Yes, the season is over, but a 6-1 victory over a divisional opponent NEVER gets old to watch. And there were two scraps! First, Ryan Reaves and Derek Dorsett went at it in a fight that Reaves made close, but...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Blue Jackets 04-03-11
I was honored to be witness to the Awesome That Is Jarome Iginla in the Blues’ 3-2 loss to the Calgary Flames on Friday. And yes, I do have a BIT of a man-crush on Iginla. While that’s true, I do still wish he had not single-handedly beaten my team like that. Oh well, some...
