I will, however, take the liberty of filling in the next line for Mr. Kravitz – “It’s over” – at least as it relates to the Blues’ playoff hopes this spring. But since I’ve Sun, 02 Mar 2008 02:55:26 -0500Blues Sharks Kariya Boucher Boyes http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=13778 The Blues hit rock bottom with Thursday night’s 2-1 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes at the Scottrade Center. They outplayed the Desert Dogs by a significant margin for the second time in four days and lost again. In both games combined, the Blues outshot Phoenix 77-48 but don’t have a single point to show for it. Sickening. Truly sickening.

Oh, it's a long way from official since they are still six points out of a playoff spot with two games in hand over eighth-place Nashville, but it's obvious that they simply aren't good enough to return to the postseason this spring for the first Sun, 24 Feb 2008 23:22:38 -0500Kariya Tkachuk Stempniak Coyotes http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=12645 The may have lost much more than a hockey game in Chicago on Wednesday night as All-Star goalie Manny Legace was barreled into by Blackhawks forward Patrick Sharp with 4:38 left in the first period (thanks in large part to Barret Jackman shoving Sharp into Legace) and suffered an injury to his right arm on the play. He stayed in to finish the remainder of the first period but was replaced by rooki Thu, 17 Jan 2008 00:33:12 -0500Jackman Brian Campbell Blackhawks Blues Legace Schwarz http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=12518 Friday night’s 6-4 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena was a tough one for the Blues, primarily because their abysmal power play was one of the main reasons for their demise. The Blues had two 5-on-3 manpower advantages in this game, and they failed to score on either opportunity. On the second 5-on-3, which they had a short time after tying the game a three goals apiece, they Fri, 11 Jan 2008 22:45:55 -0500Toivonen Blue Jackets Tkachuk Blues http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=12484 The Blues made quick work of the Dallas Stars before a crowd of 16,805 tonight at Scottrade Center by recording a very sound 4-2 victory to improve to 4-0-1 in their last five games and eight games over .500 overall. I’m fully aware that every team’s record is skewed as long as the NHL goes with these ridiculous three-point games, but for now this is what we have to deal with.
