Brian Elliott, the NHL’s second star of April and the Blues’ workhorse in the playoffs, has been accused of inconsistency this season. He started the ...
The prototypical Blues fan can speak up yet again. Since Brett Hull left for the Dallas Stars during the summer of 1998, fans have been calling for a sniping forward that will come up with the big goal when needed.

It’s amazing what a few weeks can do to a hockey team. Rewind the tapes back to March 6. The Blues were in the midst of a stretch where they had 2 wins in 7 games, achieving just 5 out of a possible 14 points. Most notably, the team lost a heartbreaker in Los Angeles ...
