Throwdown Lowdown – Kings @ Blues 02-03-12
Geez, that was a while away from hockey, wasn’t it? I can barely remember who played against the St. Louis Blues in their last game . . . oh wait, now I remember! It was the Pittsburgh Penguins, who were able to sneak out of St. Louis with a 3-2 shootout win. Despite another stupid hit...
Pick the Goal Scorer: Jan. 24th vs. Pittsburgh
The first Pick a Goal Scorer post did not go so well. For the posters, none of which guessed Scott Nichol, or the Blues were wiped by the Red Wings. Tonight an equally tough opponents is on the docket. The Pittsburgh Penguins. Who is the first to bury one behind the 2009 Stanley Cup Champions?...
Throwdown Lowdown – Penguins @ Blues 01-24-12
A good effort is not good enough in Detroit, but it shows you’re ready to battle. The St. Louis Blues played well enough to beat just about every team in the league last night, but they did not play well enough to beat the Detroit Red Wings at home. The 3-1 win, while it derails a...
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...

In what is known as one of the better rivalries in NHL, another chapter will be written in the battle for Pennsylvania tonight as the Flyers take on the Penguins in Pittsburgh.

Concussions Rock the East
Head injuries and hockey have, unfortunately, gone hand in hand the past few years. Concussions and other head-related injuries have become much more prominent in the NHL over the last three seasons, affecting everyone from league superstars to lesser-known role players. It seems like every week there’s another player who is sidelined by a concussion,...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blackhawks @ Blues 12-03-11
So . . . overtime? I hate the National Hockey League’s idea of overtime, but we had to endure it once again in a 3-2 shootout loss by the St. Louis Blues to the Colorado Avalanche. Furthermore, there were no fights in the contest, so the Blues hold steady with 11 fights this season, currently...
Throwdown Lowdown – Blues @ Avalanche 12-01-11
They are the St. Louis Blues, and lately all they can do is win hockey games, even if it’s just brutal to watch. Another ugly-yet-effective game led to a 2-1 win to spoil Dale Hunter’s Washington Capitals coaching debut. And there WAS a fight in the contest! Scott Nichol got into it with noted scrapper...
Throwdown Lowdown – Flames @ Blues 11-25-11
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I will start off with the video of the “fight” between Colin Fraser and Scott Nichol that was not on the previous report. Someone actually voted that Fraser won the fight. That person should be shot on site, as should anyone that votes Nichol the winner. This...
