Small changes make big difference for Jordan Walker

As most of you know, I was lucky enough to be invited to attend Winter Warmup as a reporter. Last year, I used that experience to write several season previews. Due to the late start of the top 20 prospect series (caused by waiting for Brendan Donovan to be traded), my Winter Warmup stories have […]

3 Offseason Trade Destinations for Blues' Pius Suter

The St. Louis Blues had a very disappointing 2025-26 season and changes to their roster should be on the way this summer because of it. One Blues player who has the potential to be moved during the offseason is forward Pius Suter. The 29-year-old forward will be entering the final season of his contract in 2026-27, so the Blues could very well listen to offers for him as they head toward a rebuild. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could target Suter this summer. Columbus Blue Ja...

All Things Must Pass: Blues 5, Blackhawks 3

Chicago lost yet again on Saturday at the United Center, falling 5-3 to the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis struck first midway through the opening period. The Blackhawks weren’t able to get the puck out and, after some cycling, Jimmy Snuggerud got to the net to tip in Tyler Tucker’s shot. Not sure there's a more perfect tip than that. #stlblues pic.twitter.com/dS3bAXIjGI — St. Louis Blues (@StLouisBlues) April 11, 2026 The Blackhawks evened the score 1-1 about five minutes lat...

Country Grammar: Blackhawks vs. Blues Preview

The Blackhawks continue their season-ending homestand on Saturday afternoon at the United Center against the St. Louis Blues. Since the turn of the new year, the Blues have played better than their first-half disaster suggested, but not nearly well enough to make the turnaround complete and qualify for the playoffs. They tightened up defensively, got steadier goaltending, and generally looked more competent after the new year, including putting together mostly break-even shot metrics like...

4 St. Louis Blues Offseason Trade Candidates

The St. Louis Blues will undoubtedly be a team to watch very closely during the summer. They kicked off their rebuild ahead of the deadline, as they traded Brayden Schenn and Justin Faulk. Yet, the Blues should have multiple more moves on the way during the summer. Because of this, let's take a look at four Blues who could be on the move this offseason.  Robert Thomas, C Thomas was the NHL's biggest trade candidate leading up to the deadline, but ended up staying put. The Blues are expect...

GM #78: Winnipeg Jets @ St. Louis Blues

I know that this game preview is a day early, as the Winnipeg Jets do not play until Thursday….but I have a bunch of teleconferences scheduled for tomorrow, so thought I would get it done while I have time. In Tuesday’s NHL action, neither the St. Louis Blues nor Seattle Kraken used their game in hand on Winnipeg to gain points, as both dropped their contests to stay behind the Jets in the standings. The Nashville Predators did win their match, so they now have a 4 pt advantage on the Tru...

Avalanche's Nazem Kadri leaves game vs. Blues with upper-body injury

Talk about terrible timing for the Colorado Avalanche. The Avs were taking on the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday night, and center Nazem Kadri took a shot off the hand, and had to leave the game with an upper-body injury. Colorado won the game 3-1 over the Blues, but Kadri left in midway through the game, and now the team is holding their breath that his hand, wrist, or finger isn't broken. Losing Kadri two weeks before the Stanley Cup Playoffs would be a massive blow to the Avs' dressing room. He...

3 Potential Trade Destinations for Blues' Jordan Binnington

The St. Louis Blues started their re-tool this season, and heading into this offseason, expect to see major changes continue for their roster. Whether it's Doug Armstrong in charge, or Alex Steen, the Blues are changing up the core of their roster, and we've already seen Colton Parayko almost dealt, Justin Faulk and Brayden Schenn moved, and in the offseason, expect to see goaltender Jordan Binnington moved. Binnington, 32, has one year left on his contract at $6 million AAV. He owns a 10-team...

GM #77: Seattle Kraken @ Winnipeg Jets

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...

3 Minnesota Wild Offseason Center Targets

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...

Recap: Avs lose 3-2 to surging Blues

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 […]

Open Thread: Colorado Avalanche vs. St. Louis Blues (7:30 p.m. MT)

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 […]

Timing is 'Not Right' For Maple Leafs & Top GM/Hockey Ops Boss Candidate

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...

NHL Rumors: 3 Offseason Trade Destinations for Blues' Jordan Binnington

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...

Quick Bites: San Jose Keeps Playoff Hopes Breathing with Big Win

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...

Blues at Sharks game 72: Lines, game thread and how to watch

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 on the Leafs’ ugly loss in St. Louis: “We had one player who showed up… If you don’t have urgency, you’re letting that sweater down”

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 post Craig Berube on the Leafs’ ugly loss in St. Louis: “We had one player who showed up… If you don’t have urgency, you’re letting that sweater down” appeared first on M...
