Noted - A St. Louis Blues Podcast

The Blues are playing an exciting brand of hockey with contributions up and down the lineup right now. They aren't winning games, which is probably for the best, but at least we're watching a team that is interested in playing some offense and getting key pieces on the board. We talk about recent performances, future moves and some Olympics in this edition of the Noted Podcast.

Trevor Kraus joins the podcast to talk about the Blues recent string of games including the win against Panthers in spectacular fashion. We break down the run of form, Blues coaching, young players and what comes next for this organization.

They were well fought games with big contributions from our young players including Dvorsky, Stennberg and Jimmy Snuggeruud with veterans like Pavel Buchnevic, Schenn and Kyrou chipping in as well. However, it wasn't enough for this Blues team as they drop 4 straight in relatively entertaining affairs. The special teams remains an issue, but the Powerplay managed to get some Mojo going. In the end, we were outshined by the stars of Dallas and Los Angeles as we get a step closer to a higher draft pick.

The Blues only take 1 of 3 in this span of games, most disappointingly losing to the Jets 1-3 in their last tilt. The Noted guys break down what's gone wrong with this team, Otter's exit and Head Coaching promotion/demotion, the offense and the future of this team.

An impressive win for the boys as they shutout a top team in the Carolina Hurricanes as they come into town. Hofer with another shutout, putting him tied for the league lead in the category. Young players stepping up and Kyrou having a big game underscored a big W for the Blues the night after the Hall Of Fame dinner, which appears to have galvanized the group. It was also awesome to see TJ Oshie back in the building, calling a Blues game for ESPN in a full circle-type moment. Good vibes all around.

The Blues have lost their third straight game for what seems like the 45th time this season. There was some fight back, but in the end it wasn't enough. The offense continues to struggle and the defense is a bit leaky. We break down the state of the Blues and Spoiler Alert: it's not favorable

Today we breakdown the Blues loss to the Chicago Blackhawks with our special guest, Chicago Sports Reporter, Alex Shapiro. Another devastating loss where we can't tell which direction this team wants to go.

It's been a hectic few days for the boys as we rung in the New Year, and we continue to be on the seesaw. Terrible game against the avs, somewhat expectedly but we responded with two great wins against top teams with terrific individual performances from guys you would expect and some you wouldn't. This was a pleasure to break down. Happy New Year!

The Blues go down to Buffalo in a heartbreaker. We came out strong and looked like the vintage Blues in the first period. We had a chance to tie it up in the last minute of the game, but as we've seen time and again this season, we failed to take our chance and the puck ends up in the back of our net to kill the game off. Hofer was electric, but the Blues failed to back him up with run support after playing 2 periods of lifeless hockey. It's a tough bounce but that's how she goes. Looking forward to taking on the league leading Avalanche in a tantalizing tilt.

The Blues take down the Preds in a real redemption game against the division rivals who embarrassingly beat us in the last two meetings. Joel Hofer was phenomenal again, and Pavel Buchnevic was the star of the show as he pots two goals in this thriller.
