The Donut Corner – What Is To Be Done With Ben Bishop?
Back in July, the St. Louis Blues made a minimal risk move that has ended up paying huge dividends not only to the team, but to the individual on whom they took the risk when they signed young goaltender Brian Elliott to a one-year, two-way contract with an opportunity to win a spot on the...
Second Half Surge
Well here’s to hoping Brian Elliott’s third period play in the NHL All-Star Game doesn’t translate into the second half of the season… With the Blues being off until Friday, we fans have a lot of time to kill. Mostly, it will be spent watching the Note drop down in the standings through no fault...

Throwdown Lowdown – Canucks @ Blues 01-12-12
Remember when the St. Louis Blues sucked at hockey back in the middle to late ‘00’s? I’m starting to forget those days, thanks to performances like we saw in Le Centre Bell on Tuesday.

Video: Classy Salute to Halak by Canadiens Fans
The St. Louis Blues pretty much coasted on to a 3-0 victory over the Montreal Canadiens following Jaroslav Halak‘s momentous 1st period save on former teammate Tomas Plekanec‘s shorty attempt.

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...

Big Opportunities Tonight for a Pair of Enigmatic Forwards
Stewart and Gagner headline, but there are others to watch tonight for as well. On paper tonight’s tilt down at 14th and Clark doesn’t look all that exciting.
