Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Capitals 11-29-11
Ugly wins count as marks in the win column, indeed, and it’s doubtful that many wins this season will be much uglier than the St. Louis Blues’ 2-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Sunday evening. Speaking of ugly . . . I’m not sure exactly what the hell you would call this skirmish...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Capitals, 03-03-11
While there is little doubt the Blues’ future is bright, Tuesday’s brutal 6-0 loss to the Calgary Flames left very few doubts about this season’s final path (folks, it’s not good). But at one point, to try to inject some positive energy into the club, Cam Janssen went at it with “The Greek God of...
Throwdown Lowdown – Capitals @ Blues – 12-01-10
Last night’s Blues 7-5 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks may not have been fun to watch in the grand scheme of things, but at least the game had an old-school hockey feel to it. The decision was given to John Scott in his bout with Cam Janssen, BJ Crombeen pretty easily handled Nick Boynton and...
My Personal Hockey Curse
This article comes from a special request from my husband, Jeff- an author here on BNZ. After several discussions lately about my hockey “curse,” he urged me to share my story with our readers. So, here is the tale of my hockey curse and those it has touched in the past few years. I haven’t...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Stars – 10-16-10
Thursday’s loss to the Nashville Predators brought one actual fight and another event that was not considered a fight – and for good reason, other than the fact that it didn’t draw a fighting major. The fight was between BJ Crombeen and former Canuck Shane O’Brien, and it was an easy victory for The Beej. ...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Predators, 10-14-10
Well, they decided to throw fists at the Columbus Day Matinee’ in St. Louis on Tuesday. And the results weren’t terrible except for one player – and unfortunately, it was one of my favorites, and I’ll get to him in a minute. It all started with a fight that Ryan Reaves won over Kyle Chipchura...
Throwdown Lowdown – Flyers @ Blues 10-09-10
So it is time. Yes, it’s THAT time. IT’S TIME FOR REAL LIVE HOCKEY! This means the return of the Throwdown Lowdown report which, admittedly, was running in slack-off mode at the tail end of last season after getting a late start. But the batteries are recharged and the river flows forth. Not only that,...
Wednesday Bluenotes: King Traded?
The St. Louis Blues have traded DJ King to the Washington Capitals in return for prospect Forward Stefan Della Rovere. Prior to the deal DJ King had agreed to a two year, $1.275 million contract extension. For now all I can say is “good move Doug”.

Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild 3-14-10
It seems the Blues wanted to DOMINATE the Blue Jackets in Columbus on Saturday . . . while there were many spouts of violence toward the end of the game, no official fights were recorded. This leaves the Blues at 5th with 57 fights and a record of 23-18-16. The last time we saw the...
