I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter long weekend…I certainly am happy that I used a few holiday days to stretch it to a full 7 days without doing my day job.
Moving on to look at the Western Conference’s wildcard race before action gets underway on Monday. The Winnipeg Jets are currently 3 points behind the Nashville Predators & Los Angeles Kings, who are tied for the 8th and final spot. The San Jose Sharks are only 2 points back of those clubs and 1 up on the Jets, while the St. Loui...
The Minnesota Wild are in their win-now window and could look to make more big moves during the offseason because of it. The biggest roster need that they should be looking to address during the summer is a top-six center. Because of this, let's take a look at three centers who the Wild should make a push for during the offseason. Robert Thomas, St. Louis Blues With the Wild in need of a star center in their top six, it would not be shocking if they kicked tires on Thomas this summ...
With the St. Louis Blues still working to earn a wild card position in this year’s playoffs, and the Avalanche on the cusp of a Central Division title, there was plenty to play for, and Ball Arena was the scene on Easter Sunday evening. Colorado comes in on the second of a back-to-back, having beaten […]
It was New Year’s Eve the last time these two teams met and the festivities began early even before the ball dropped as the Colorado Avalanche demolished the St. Louis Blues that evening in a 6-1 final. Valeri Nichushkin scored one of Colorado’s three hat tricks in the 2025-26 season to ring in the new […]

Ever since it became official that Brad Treliving was relieved of his duties as GM by the Toronto Maple Leafs, the name of St. Louis Blues' executive Doug Armstrong has been linked as the top candidate for the Toronto job — whether that job be President of hockey ops, GM, or both. But on Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday night, insider Elliotte Friedman dropped the word that it doesn't seem like we're going to see Army setting up camp in Toronto. I mentioned Doug Armstrong, but it...
St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington will be one of the NHL's top trade candidates to watch during the offseason. The 32-year-old goaltender has been the subject of trade rumors for multiple seasons now, and that carried over to this year's deadline. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Binnington during the summer. Edmonton Oilers Tristan Jarry's struggles since being acquired by the Oilers could very well lead to Edmonton looking to make a...
Coming off a long road losing streak, the San Jose Sharks emerged victorious in a back-and-forth home battle against the Saint Louis Blues at the SAP Center, winning 5-4. Macklin Celebrini, as he casually does, made National Hockey League and franchise history, scoring his hundredth point in one season. The win has more than just Celebrini credit, but Alex Wennberg provided two Sharks goals, and Adam Gaudette scored the riveting game-winner that now keeps the Sharks in the running for a wild c...
The San Jose Sharks are back home and crazily, still in the playoff race. As has been the case all season, no one seems to want to take a strangle hold on those wild card spots, so the Sharks are still well within striking distance, just four points back of the second spot with games in hand on every other team ahead of them. But just behind the Sharks are the St. Louis Blues, who pay a visit to the Shark Tank today.
The Blues have not been kind to the Sharks this season. St. Louis won th...
Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 5-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues, which dropped the Maple Leafs’ record to 31-30-13. On the team’s lackadaisical performance: We had one player who showed up tonight, and that was our goalie. That is really what it boils down to. It’s very disappointing. I thought the […]

The whoops, we're bad bowl.
A meeting against the 28th-place St. Louis Blues is a must-lose for the Maple Leafs if there is any hope of falling into the bottom five this season (7:00 p.m. EST, Sportsnet/CBC).

The San Jose Sharks pushed the St. Louis Blues to overtime, but could not manage to get the final goal to seal the win. With less than three seconds remaining on the clock, the Sharks hung Alex Nedeljkovic out to dry and allowed Dylan Holloway to retrieve a puck alone, drive the net and put one over Nedeljkovic’s shoulder for the game-winner. Nedeljkovic got as big as he could in the net and hugged the post as well as he could; it was just an excellent shot by Holloway.

The San Jose Sharks are hoping to snap a five-game losing streak today with a visit to the St. Louis Blues. This is the second of three meetings between the two teams. The Sharks lost the last bout, a 3-2 loss in overtime on March 6 in San Jose. They’ll play once more in San Jose on March 30.
The Blues are seventh in the Central Division, but have been doing better over the last week and a half than the Sharks. The team is 3-1-1 in its last five games and just a point behind San Jose in t...
The St. Louis Blues tried to blow up their roster ahead of this season's trade deadline, and while a couple moves transpired, expect to see a full re-tool this upcoming offseason. Alex Steen is expected to take over as GM and Steen will be tasked to re-shape the core of this team, after Doug Armstrong certainly got the ball rolling, moving on from captain Brayden Schenn and two-way defenceman Justin Faulk. The Blues are loaded with young talent and high draft picks, and look for Steen to shop ...
For a team that usually swings big, the Carolina Hurricanes going quiet at the deadline raised some eyebrows. Especially when Jordan Binnington’s name was floating around.
Hurricanes Didn’t View Jordan Binnington as the Upgrade
The Hurricanes did do their homework on Jordan Binnington. They checked in with the St. Louis Blues , kicked tires, and that was reportedly about as far as it went. According to The Athletic's Pierre LeBrun , talks “never got serious,” and that kind of s...

St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou once again found himself in the rumor mill leading up to the 2026 NHL trade deadline. However, the Blues ended up not moving him. While this is the case, there is an expectation that the Blues will listen to offers on Kyrou this summer. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could look to land Kyrou this offseason. Seattle Kraken The Kraken have long been linked to Kyrou, and it makes sense when noting that they could use another high-impac...
The Philadelphia Flyers are loaded on the wing, but have a lack of center depth at the NHL level. They have several pivots occupying their top 10 prospects list, but for immediate help at the NHL level, the team will have to look elsewhere. That has prompted Philly insider and Daily Faceoff writer Anthony Di Marco to propose four trade targets for the team to go after this summer. Robert Thomas, St. Louis Blues Thomas was the biggest name out there at the trade deadline, but the Blues ne...
Recap of the game.
The St. Louis Blues have found a great surprise in backup goaltender Joel Hofer. Selected 107th overall in 2018, Hofer has served 2nd-fiddle to Jordan Binnington in the Blues system. Binnington helped the Blues overcome the odds in a 2019 underdog story, which led to the team winning a Stanley Cup against the Boston Bruins, led by Bruce Cassidy. Players come and go, and as the Blues begin their retool, some players, including their own stars, may have to find a new home in the NHL....
With the surprising win on Saturday over the league leading Colorado Avalanche, the Winnipeg Jets have managed to pull within 6 points of the Western Conference’s final wildcard spot. That spot is currently being held by the San Jose Sharks, who have played 1 less game than the True Northers, and our club still needs to pass 4 other franchises in standings before they could grab that last post-season berth. So there is a lot of work to be done with only 17 more contests left in the regular sea...
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
The NHL trade deadline has come and gone. All excitement surrounding the annual event was muted by the league's newly minted rules . One big name slated to be traded by general manager Doug Armstrong of the St. Louis Blues was defenseman Colton Parayko. Locked in for four more years, with a $6.5 million average annual value (AAV) cap hit, he had a ticket to Buffalo, but exercised his ability to waive the trade. After much dismay surrounding his decision, he decided to stick ...
The Edmonton Oilers accomplished the bare minimum, securing a winning record on their four-game road trip this past week. They secured big wins over the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche in the first two games of the trip, dropped a stinker against the Dallas Stars, and watched the St. Louis Blues whittle away and…
