Chat With Brendan Burke, Rivermen Radio Announcer
At the start of the season, when I was writing for the FanSided NHL blog, more specifically their St. Louis Blues site, Bleedin’ Blue, I was able to land an interview with the Peoria Rivermen radio announcer, Brendan Burke. I know my following there and the following on The Bluenote Zone is quite different, with...
Who Won the Trade: Montreal or St. Louis?
There is one question asked at several intervals, often in perpetuity, following a trade commonly asked by media member and fan alike. “Who won the trade?” The answer has been pondered and proclaimed several times regarding the June 2010 trade of forward Lars Eller (and Ian Schultz) by the St. Louis Blues to the Montreal...
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.

Gameday 3-10-11: Somber Habs Visit | Halak vs. Price Is A Go!
A somber Montreal Canadiens (37-23-7, 81 points) club makes the journey to middle America without one of their own. Max Pacioretty may not be with them in body, but he will be in spirit.

Pelletier, Lampman, & Peoria notes
For those Blues fans not around Peoria, we might not always hear about what happens down on the farm. Recent Peoria addition Pascal Pelletier (acquired in a trade with Columbus for Defensemen Brenden Bell) was named the World Painting Company Player of the Month. Pascal recorded 8 Points (1G, 7A) in 12 Peoria Games this...
Looking For A Change
I think it goes without saying that the Blues fans are getting fed up with how this team has played on home ice. How a team can be as dominant on the road sometimes, and be one pace for their best road record in team history, to go home and already have 13 losses, a...
