Throwdown Lowdown – Stars @ Blues 01-16-12
The St. Louis Blues can win a game in the shootout? Holy crap! And so it was done on Saturday, as the Blues played the Minnesota Wild to a 2-2 tie in regulation and a scoreless five-minute overtime period, and took the victory in a shootout, most undoubtedly the single dumbest way I can think...
Throwdown Lowdown – Stars @ Blues, 12-26-11
A win is always fun to get, even when it’s earned. The St. Louis Blues took the battle to the Phoenix Coyotes Friday night on a night when the Yotes honored one of the best to ever play for BOTH franchises – one Keith “Walt” Tkachuk – and came out with a 3-2 victory. Being...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Stars 10-13-11
That’s more like it. The St. Louis Blues, following an opening night loss, turned things around in a Monday matinee with the Calgary Flames, winning 5-2 and pretty much dominating the on-ice action. The sad news here is that there were no fights in the contest, keeping the Blues in a massive tie for fifth...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Maple Leafs 01-06-11
Most good Blues fans like me would like to forget that the team ever played the Dallas Stars in the 2010-2011 season, especially considering the matchup problems created in those four games, and RATHER especially after how that 4-2 loss on Sunday ended up. But how could I forget this team? They gave me a...
Throwdown Lowdown – Stars @ Blues 01-02-11
I was hoping that Cam Janssen and Paul Bissonnette would lock horns in the Blues’ 4-3 nail-biter victory over the Phoenix Coyotes on Friday night. And trust me, Janssen did everything short of inciting a riot to get BizNasty to dance with him. But all overtures were rejected. There was a near-fight between Ed Jovanovski...

Finally, the Dallas Stars come along and wake up the Blues’ fighting fists! I did not like the way the 3-2 Stars victory ended on the scoreboard, but I was chomping at the bit for a fight. I got two good ones – starting with what was overwhelmingly a win for Brad Winchester over Brian...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Stars – 11-26-10
So that’s now SEVERAL Blues games in a row without a fight. I’m getting ANTSY here! However, the Blues were able to pull off the 2-1 shootout win over the slumping Nashville Predators on Wednesday night, so that’s something good. Methinks the Preds wouldn’t be struggling so much if they didn’t have their gloves glued...
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 @ Avalanche 3-6-10
The Blues aren’t just beating people on the scoreboard, they’re punching people too. There were two fights on Thursday between the Blues and Dallas Stars – one featuring expected contestants and one featuring not-so-expected contestants. First, we had the long-awaited rematch between DJ King and Krys Barch. King broke his hand on Barch’s helmet in...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Stars 3-4-10
A glorious two points earned by the Blues in the desert brings our squad back toward the pack fighting for the 8th spot in the playoffs. Unfortunately, no official fights occurred (the scrum at the end of the 2nd period notwithstanding), so the Blues drop to 5th place while remaining at 54 fights on the...
