My East/West Predictions
I was sitting down, looking closely as each series and decided I’d write up a short blurb on each series and give my prediction. Needless to say, I am a fan of the upset, but I only see one upset coming in the first round. I’ll be starting in the eastern conference with the 1st...
My Chat With Dave Eminian
Dave Eminian, who many of you might know as @IceTimeCleve on Twitter, has a job many of us can only dream of. Getting paid to watch and write hockey. But he’s earned his dues, and in doing so, he’s been able to cover to Peoria Rivermen, from their East Coast Hockey League days, all the...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blue Jackets @ Blues, 03-31-12
Well, the division title is still in range for the St. Louis Blues, as they gained a point in a game they probably didn’t deserve to get one in after losing to the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 in a free-throw shooting contest. But while there were a few mild skirmishes, there were no fights to speak...
Is Pietrangelo A Norris Caliber Defensemen?
When the Blues traded defensemen Erik Johnson to the Colorado Avalanche, they did so due to the progression in the game of Alex Pietrangelo. The young defender has done nothing but impress since he’s joined the Blues full time after spending two extra seasons in Juniors, a route in which Doug Armstrong deserves a ton...
Blues Trade Bishop to Ottawa for a Draft Pick
So long and good luck to St. Louis native Ben Bishop. The 26 year old Peoria Rivermen netminder was traded to the Ottawa Senators for a conditional 2nd round pick in the 2013 NHL entry draft. In 38 games this season Bishop has posted a 24(W) – 14(L) – 1 (SOL) record with a 2.26 GAA...

Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Senators, 02-07-12
Well, that sucked. The St. Louis Blues were hoping to break their struggles with the Nashville Predators, but instead found out how good Pekka Rinne really is . . . AGAIN . . . in a 3-1 regulation loss in Tennessee on Saturday. A great fight happened, and it was recapped here. Sure, Ryan Reaves...
Random thoughts on a not so cold Monday before Christmas…
