Throwdown Lowdown – Flames @ Blues 11-25-11
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I will start off with the video of the “fight” between Colin Fraser and Scott Nichol that was not on the previous report. Someone actually voted that Fraser won the fight. That person should be shot on site, as should anyone that votes Nichol the winner. This...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Flames 10-28-11
Yours truly spent a while battling both a severe case of “Game 6 Hangover” and wonky internet connections at the office, therefore this post is decidedly late. My apologies for that, but the report moves on. Speaking of “Game 6 Hangover” . . . sure, the St. Louis Blues are second-fiddle right now to the...
Blues Overpower Flames – Game #2 vs. Calgary Flames
In what is becoming a tradition, the St. Louis Blues played another matinee game on Columbus Day. This year’s opponent was the Calgary Flames. With a bounce back performance, St. Louis took care of business beating the Flames 5-2. The Flames got the lead early when Curtis Glencross beat Jaroslav Halak with a deflected shot....

Throwdown Lowdown – Flames @ Blues 10-10-11
Well, things went a bit awry for our beloved St. Louis Blues in the season and home opener, taking it on the chin in a 4-2 loss to the Nashville Predators. But there’s good news here, and it comes in two parts: 1) It’s only one hockey game out of 82, and 2) Ryan Reaves...
Time to Give David Backes Due Praise
Coming off a 2009-10 campaign defined by inconsistencies and offensive frustration David Backes had much to prove in 2010-11. At season’s end he would become an Unrestricted Free Agent if an extension couldn’t be reached by July 1st. His last chance to make an impression on all 30 perspective employers would be career defining and...
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...

Throwdown Lowdown – Flames @ Blues 04-01-11
Wow. WOW. W.O.W.!!!!! Sure, the season is over, but if you’re a Blues fan, how can you NOT enjoy a 10-3 Blues victory over the Detroit Red Wings? IT IS NOT POSSIBLE. Seriously, the only thing that would’ve been better, in my case? Had it been done against the Chicago Blackhawks (and yes, I still...
Chris Stewart: The Needed Offensive Workhorse
Chris Stewart is THE Guy There have been many holes in the Blues lineup during the rebuilding era. Organizational depth to counter injuries and free agency churn. Offense from the blueline. Long term goaltending solution. A defensive anchor. An offensive workhorse. A few have been addressed while others remain work in progress, but perhaps the...
