Blues have Plenty of Options to Create Ideal Defense Pairings

January 12th, 2021 Coaches at all levels of hockey will often tell you that depth is a vital key to long-term success in a hockey season.

On one...

5 Blues Who Need to Lead in the 2020-21 Season

January 8th, 2021 The St. Louis Blues are heading into the 2020-21 season with high hopes — and for good reason.

Bruins' 2020 Year in Review

January 5th, 2021 Across the board, 2020 was a pretty terrible year in both sports and the world at large.

Filling the Blues' Leadership Void in 2020-21

Filling the Blues' Leadership Void in 2020-21

December 14th, 2020 Much is made in the National Hockey League of strong leadership and locker room presence as key factors to success. More so even than raw talent or skill, good guys in the room hold value for organizations that are intangible. So, when an organization loses its leader, it's fair to ask, "what happens next?" It's even fairer to ask that...

Looking at the Blues' 2020-21 Blue Line

October 20th, 2020 It is officially safe to say that the St. Louis Blues blue line is going to look different in the 2020-21 season after former captain Alex Pietrangelo signed a seven-year, $61.1 million deal with the Vegas Golden Knights.

This topic isn’t news by any means, and speculation has been whirling for several seasons on how long they can keep going without seriously investing in some younger players.
