Re: St. Louis Blues 2018-2019 Stanley Cup Champions!!!!!!!!!!

The first LA Cup winning team vs. the Blues Cup winning team would be amazing to watch. I hadn't thought about this. It would be a blast to watch those two teams go at it. I believe it was the 2011-2012 season. Similar story, too, IIRC. Floundering early, fire coach, make playoffs, catch fire, win ...

Re: St. Louis Blues 2018-2019 Stanley Cup Champions!!!!!!!!!!

Something that seems to be lost on the fanbases of teams built around 2-3 superstars is that the team that wins it all isn't usually the one with the greatest collection of individual talent, it is the one that plays the best as a team. You need a solid game plan, great execution, and a collection o...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

Was watching the 90-91 All Star Gm tonight. Did not know Hull had to miss game because of ankle injury and Oates got his spot. Funny thing was, they interviewed Lindros cause he was going to be the first pick in draft. Bill Clement mentioned some possible destinations like Quebec, New Jersey and Mi...

Re: Yet another reason to hate the B's

I loved him against the Blues, who marginalized him fairly well in the finals. Did he even play? I remember seeing him cry, but that’s about it Tied ROR for the lead in points during the postseason. Most players do cry when they lose during the cup final. The ones that cry are the ones you want. Ha...

Two goals....three assists...and twelve shots.
Now do 5 on 5...

Re: Mac Mac Coming Back

Looks like they're really trying to nail down all the RFAs. De La Rose is one I'm interested in seeing what happens with...not good enough to be in the top 12 when people are healthy but still a useful player. I expect he'll still get a one way deal, but I think he starts next season as our 15th fo...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

I'm pretty sure that it's going to be up to the State Governors, and not the Hockey Governors, as to what they will allow and not allow. I'll be surprised if Hockey happens in Illinois anytime soon. Not an issue if you don't play at home rinks. I'd assume they're looking at neutral site games all i...

Same one that was at the asylum?
Pretty sure.

Re: News and Games around the NHL

https://twitter.com/jrblueshockey/status/1247974291293065221?s=21 Sure, it's heartwarming to see a St. Louis kid with Blues bloodlines on an NHL Central Scouting list. But Seamus Campbell's minor, high school & junior numbers so far are unremarkable (putting it kindly), while being ranked at 19...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

Oddly enough I had tickets for that game. I remember the Hawks had late morning skate at Brentwood. I was grabbing lunch with a friend at Subway in Brentwood when Everett Sanipass ans Dan Vincelette walked in. We were the only two that noticed who they were. Sanipass was wearing a big ass cast and ...

Re: John Kelly has the rona

Apologies if this was posted but I did a search and didn't see it. https://www.nhl.com/blues/news/blues-issue-statement-on-john-kelly-testing-positive-for-covid-19/c-316422366 The St. Louis Blues have issued the following statement regarding FOX Sports Midwest play-by-play announcer John Kelly, who...

Re: Blues Prospects Thread (2019-20)

Not a Blues prospect but interesting nonetheless. https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1242879273251278848?s=19 I read something on him in the hockey news when I was like 12 or so . More impressive is playing against guys 3 years older than him and dominating last season. Looks like the hype is leg...

Re: Best Blues Jersey

The Blues don't have a lot of differentiation in their colors and designs over the years. For me it will always be the 89'-94' versions, this is the most vibrant blue the team has used and the gold bands tie everything together nicely. After this I would pick the current heritage uniforms. The curr...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

I'm looking at some old NHL standings and I did not know or remember that for 2 years, the first 2 years the Edmonton Oilers and Wayne Gretzky were in the league, that for the first 2 years they were in the same division as the St. Louis Blues - ha. And that includes the 80-81 season where the Blue...

Re: 2019-2020 St. Louis Blues

If the season is over, which I believe it is, since no teams made the playoffs, every team should have odds of getting the #1 pick. That is a very good point. Even if they are able to figure out a way to get a couple of rounds of playoffs in, anyone who gets left out should be in the lottery. They'...

Re: Play Commissioner

Add to my previous list:

Dark jerseys at home half of the season, white jerseys the other half
(and stop calling them sweaters - sweaters are wool and hockey jerseys haven't been wool for decades :evil: )

Re: Play Commissioner

To add to some of the other ideas: Eliminate the icing "privilege" while killing penalties Go back to minor penalties being served for the entire 2 minutes and score at will like you do on majors Implement 3-2-1 standings to increase value of regulation wins and have all games worth the sa...

Re: League Watch 2020

Common ground is sooo boring Common ground? How about common sense. I didn't even start asking questions until I saw some guy quoting a Harvard virologist who said there could be 3-4 billion people infected. Come on...if there is that many people infected there will be 100's of millions dead. Exact...

Re: League Watch 2020

It's not that it is a blip it is that the actual data does not match up with the estimates being thrown around..."millions of lives lost" There are currently 8273 fatalities from this globally...do you really think there is about to be 900k people in America dying of this out of nowhere? ...

Re: League Watch 2020

Yeah, but you are a total dipshit, so this only strengthens my argument. A live look in the kitchen of CaptSMRT this-is-fine.0.jpg We'll see in a few weeks who the real dumbass is. I called you a dipshit, dumbass. I'm being cautious and not going to any stadium events, so I'll be fine. I'm pretty w...

Re: League Watch 2020

Well said, Brad. My motto in life that applies to most everything is that I'd rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. That can be applied to preparedness for anything, even a viral pandemic. Be safe everyone. Yeah, but you are a total dipshit, so this only strengthens my arg...
