Throwdown Lowdown – Kings @ Blues 11-22-11
The boredom of the Twin Cities strikes our favorite club once again. The St. Louis Blues looked poised to win Saturday over the Minnesota Wild, but during the course of the action at some point, things went awry. A goal was scored late by Minnesota to tie, then the game went to the shootout, and...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild 11-19-11
You give a solid effort, you hold your opponent somewhere around 20 shots, and in the National Hockey League, generally you will win even if the officiating may appear to be somewhat suspect. The St. Louis Blues proved that theory correct on Thursday, knocking off a Florida Panthers team that had been playing very well...

Breaking Down Jaroslav Halak Through Three Games. Changing Perspectives?
“What is the biggest problem with the Blues?” If question was posed before the start of the season the answers would be all over the spectrum much like Brad Boyes “snipes” to all corners of the rink but the net.

As most mornings go I woke up this morning, hopped on the computer, and began my morning ritual of reading the various hockey sites that I frequent. A some what common theme seemed to start creeping up into the back of my mind. How does St. Louis look from the prospect of the 4×6? It...

Unscientific First Round Predictions
Happy Stanley Cup Playoffs! No, as Blues fans, we are not happy that our Local Six did not make it to the big tournament, but that doesn’t mean bloggers like me can’t pontificate as to how things will end up. This is where this blog post comes in. Mind you, this will be off-the-cuff and...
Throwdown Lowdown – Wild @ Blues 03-29-11
I didn’t see much of the game on Saturday due to bowling obligations (and by the way, my right arm frickin’ hurts), but I heard it was a pretty epic time during the Blues’ 6-3 victory over the Minnesota Wild. Well, when you score six goals and all six are by six different players, that...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Wild 03-26-11
Sure, the Edmonton Oilers are probably the worst team in the National Hockey League, but that doesn’t make the dominating 4-0 Blues win over them any less sweet. “Dominating” may not be the right word, but the absolute correct word might be one I won’t mention on this blog (but I probably would at Game...
