Throwdown Lowdown – Rangers @ Blues, 12-15-11

If you’re going to have five days off, you may as well go into it with a smile on your face. That’s what the St. Louis Blues did Saturday by beating the San Jose Sharks 1-0 in a very tight defensive struggle, which was relatively expected with it being David Perron’s first game against the...

Bluenotes 1-27-11: 5 Questions | Blues Updates | NHL Links

A daily dose of news and views from St. Louis Blues Nation and the NHL abroad. - Questions the Blues (& Fans) Should Be Asking While this may be unpopular with a few BNZ readers and tweeps, I agree with Bernie Miklasz’s article today on STLToday.com. We all love the Blues for some very good...

So, because of a family wedding, I missed the 2-1 Blues loss to the New York Rangers.  But when I have to miss a game, I always look at the box score for fights, and I was hoarked that there were none to be had.  Then I found out that Sean Avery got the game-winner,...

Well, in a game that the Blues arguably did not deserve to win, they were able to sneak a point from a 6-5 shootout loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs that included one of the most incredible shootout/penalty shot goals I’ve ever seen by Mikhail Grabovski.  However, there were no fights in the contest, so...

Just Sayin’…

Just sayin’… Once is enough… The hit on Jason Pominville by Nik Hjalmarsson was disgusting and terrible decision making by the Hawks defenseman. Don’t burn the young Swede at the stake over it though. He is not cut from the same mold as the Downie’s, Cooke’s and Avery’s of the league. Just sayin’… Good to...

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. ...

There was testiness and physicality, not to mention slew-footing allegations, that sprang from Thursday’s Blues contest with the Minnesota Wild.  Despite all that, there were no fighting majors “awarded”, so there were no “fights” to recap, meaning no records for the Blues have changed.  And that’s OK, because unlike the Minnesota Wild, every once in...
