Is there any chance of seeing a decade-ending eight-game winning streak come to an end at the hands of some mangy, flea-ridden desert dogs? NEIN


Let’s Go Blues!!!

yotes are riding a three game losing streak and kuemper is still out. blues can hopefully extend to nine tonight.

True but it does feel like the Coyotes have give us trouble recently. Can't take them lightly.

[Note Worthy]

The exact moment I knew we were going to win the Cup. Looks like Vladi knew as well.

 

[Note Worthy]

You know, something that I think is overlooked, Schenn only scored 5 goals in the playoffs last year but they were some huge ones.

• A goal in game 6 of WCF that put the Blues up 3-1 giving them some serious breathing room. Before that it was 2-1 and the Sharks were charging hard. Schenn's goal put them away.
• The empty net goal in game 4 of the SCF that sealed the first SCF win on home ice and tied the series.
• The goal that made it 3-0 in game 7 and let everyone breathe easy as that was pretty much the dagger to the Bruins heart.

I mean, if you're only going to score a handful of goals in the playoffs at least make them count and mean something. Schenn definitely did that.

EDIT: Oh and how could I forget! He scored the game tying goal in game 5 against the Jets in Winnipeg!

4 of his 5 goals were huge. The one I'm leaving out is the first goal of the SCF in game 1. I left it out because we obviously lost the game but you could argue that it was a big goal as well even if it ultimately didn't matter in the end.

What's beautiful is looking closer and seeing these lone blue jerseys in that sea of black and gold fandom. They are on their feet...50 years of despair flushed away with cheers and fist pumps.

Does anyone know if the Blues New Year's video set to Auld Lang Syne is online anywhere? They played it a few times at the game on Sunday and I think someone may have been chopping onions in there or something... it was really good...

It’s a cool photo, but where is Binnington in the OP banner picture? Is he the one who took the picture?!

Ok, found him. Back row next to Sundqvist. You can’t see his pads, so it’s tougher to spot.

I remember Maroon coming screaming into the team photo and sliding in front of Binnington when he was being interviewed after game 7.

 

[STL BLUES]

Going to tonight's New Year's Eve Game! Adrenaline is already flowing like it's a game. Looking forward to watching the magic line of Schwartz - Schenn - Kyrou.

The original Pang reaction on this play is so much better.

 

[Note Worthy]

The original Pang reaction on this play is so much better.

His reaction is great because everyone else in their living room had the exact same reaction.

My wife was in the other room when that goal happened and I ran in to explain what had just happened but I couldn't get it out and I wasn't making any sense because I was so excited and in disbelief.

I was just happy to be having a chance to get to OT. Then Bozak made that pass and I thought, Schwartz is uncovered! But I still didn’t think it would go in. Schwartz was still “snakebit” in that time.

Pang expresses it perfectly.

[Blanick]

I can't post the video cause I am on my phone but I really love the first shift of game 4 against the Sharks.

Coming off the hand pass game everyone was wondering how the Blues would respond. Steen crushes Burns behind his own net sending him flailing down the ice and forcing a turnover and Barbashev scores. Was just an incredible way to start that game.

Gotta have these in the decade wrap up

What a screen by Oshie on that Tarasenko goal. And again a great pass on the Backes goal.

I have never been more wrong about trading a player. Huge regret, especially considering the return.


Keep ‘em coming boys!

 

[STL BLUES]

Met a bunch of Blues after practice. Chief said he hadn't made up his mind who the starter would be for tonight.

 

[The Note]

This was a good moment too. The Blues lost in OT IIRC, but the Blues were killing off a BS major and Perron scored this goal. Back when the Red Wings were still big brother.

All good picks, but I'll add my favorite Oshie highlight:



____________
This is when Tarasenko became one of my favorite players. The goal was great, but the story is better. After going down by 1, Tarasenko skated directly to Elliott and told him we'll get it back. 20 seconds later, thanks to a tremendous individual effort, He did just that. Check out this ARTICLE for the story (sorry its CHICAGO tribune).



____________
Speaking of Moose, he is another of my favorite Blues. Here is a nice tribute with some of his great saves.
