Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Coyotes, 12-23-11
Well, I didn’t think it was a goal. They reviewed it, though, and apparently the call on the ice is that it WAS a goal and that there was no conclusive evidence to overturn it. That goal by old friend “Silent Jay” McClement ended up the game-winner for the Colorado Avalanche in a 3-2 victory...

Tonight the St. Louis Blues take on the Colorado Avalanche in their first meeting of the pre-season. In recent years, the Avs have had the blues number winning a bulk of the match ups.

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 – Avalanche @ Blues, 02-22-11
Two things were disappointing about the 5-3 Blues loss to the Chicago Blackhawks last night: 1) the Blues wasted a great first period effort and lost the game, and 2) there were no fights in the game. Go figure – it’s the first time the Blues and Blackhawks did not contest a fight in a...

Well St. Louis Blues fans, it happened. Doug Armstrong has proven that the re-building era is over. Moving out the one time franchise cornerstone and the top selection in the 2006 NHL Draft, Erik Johnson.

Welcome to tonight’s cutie watch! I want to start by bidding our Captain a farewell and wishing Brewer the best of luck in Tampa…. maybe fans will like him more there. Also, after the shocking news of a late night trade, I’d like to say goodbye to Erik Johnson and Jay McClement. I know we...

This is what I get for going to bed early… Late last night the St. Louis Blues dealt Dedenseman Erik Johnson, Forward Jay McClement and their 1st round pick in the 2011 draft to the Colorado Avalanche. In return they recieve Forward Chris Stewart, Defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk and the Avs 2nd round pick in the...
GameRecap: Blues Zapped in OT by Lightning 4-3
The Blues came to Tampa looking for two points and came out with one. Is that a fair compromise or a failure to execute? In a contest out side the Division and the Conference, we should all be willing to compromise. As forwarned in the preview, the Note should be weary of starting a barn...
GameRecap: Blues Lose Key Game To Avs
One trend was broken as another continued Monday night. Colorado Avalanche power forward Chris Stewart was quiet. Enough so that head coach Joe Sacco benched the right winger for the entirety of the third period. Good news right? Not entirely. Another “Blues Killer” emerged from the Avs right wing. As Brandon Yips pair of tallies...
