Jason Millen: Blues win their 1st goal game, lost 2 players before taking on the Coyotes Blues win their 1st goal game, lost 2 players before taking on the Coyotes

Looks like fabbri separated his shoulder

This is a joke. How weak are all of our players? Every game we lose another player.....or two. O'Reilly must be thrilled with the trade now. One dumpster fire to the next.

Tonight was rough. Some bad calls against, but the team spirals and can't dig themselves out. Actually, they struggle to stop the bleeding.

This feels like a new low. No idea what the solution is. Play it out? Trades (risky to sell low on players)? On top of the issues and confidence, now injuries really are adding up.

Is it the perfect storm? Players digressing? Bad chemistry?

Blues are suffering right now, and there seems to be no cure.

Some suggest rebuild, selling off every part we have with value. No guarantees to get right players though.

I've never felt this low about a season this early. Talent exists, but defense is shattered (confidence +).

Others suggest Armstrong needs to go. At the same time, if you are ownership, how much money are you willing to dump into this current mess before you cut your losses and try again next year? Army has perhaps 3 more years left? Yeo with 2 beyond this one.

Lots of money to pay unemployed workers while still tanking.

Honestly think it's due to lack of chemistry with constant new players. Relying on unproven talent (bottom 6) and injuries. DA won the free agency did he not? Bad extensions maybe. This team showed heart and passion Friday. Petro actually stood up for a teammate. Now he is injured. Who else is standing up. Tarasenko, where are you. This is just a bad year. Some bad contracts have to go this offseason.

According to some hockey wizards on the Pens thread they could trade Kessel for Tarasanko.

Too many slow players. Defense sucks. I hope there is a way we can move Parayko for something good.

Kid has talent but his defensive game is weak. He's too big to be blocking but not blocking shots.
