The NHL resumes next week and with the Olympic roster freeze ending on Tuesday, expect to see a flurry of moves into late next week. Several insiders have stated they're expecting the action to be as busy as the four days after the 4 Nations Faceoff last February, and don't be surprised to see the St. Louis Blues and New York Islanders talking a blockbuster deal. Mike Rupp: Re Jordan Kyrou/Islanders: That would be the one team that I think can make it happen [in-season], and they've got Cole E...

On February 7th in 2009, Burnaby-born crooner and Vancouver Canucks fan Michael Buble took part in his most famous duet to date taking a turn in Tom Larscheid's shoes to color John Shorthouse's call.
Buble delivered a healthy dose of hometown bias to the play-by-play broadcast including a cover of Paul Leka's anthem midway through the match en route to the Canucks 7-3 win over the Chicago

On February 2nd in 2006, St. Louis Blues defenseman Dennis Wideman famously flubbed a shootout attempt against Chicago Blackhawks rookie goalie Corey Crawford, awkwardly falling before managing a shot on net.
The shootout miss remains a favorite among NHL hockey bloopers. The Blues eventually beat the Blackhawks that night by a score of 6-5.
That's today in NHL history.

The Minnesota Wild already pulled off one blockbuster trade this season, and it sounds like there's growing speculation that there's another one coming. Word is, GM Bill Guerin is using goaltender Jesper Wallstedt as a trade chip in talks, and one team that has aligned perfectly as a trade partner - the St. Louis Blues. Wallstedt is by far the Wild's best trade chip, and he could be landing multiple pieces from the Blues if this deal comes to fruition, projected by The Athletic's James Mirtle ...

If 26-year-old Robert Thomas is to be had at the upcoming trade deadline, it will take a very high price to do it. One recent report from Elliotte Friedman indicated that a team will have to make the St. Louis Blues say to themselves, 'there’s no way we can say no'. Which team is ready to try to bowl over the Blues with a Thomas offer? According to insider James Mirtle of The Athletic, we should not count out the Carolina Hurricanes making Thomas their next 'big swing.' Some...

Changes have to be made to the St. Louis Blues , and some definitely will, but the right players have to be swapped out. This is a team with some solid young talent, but there are still some younger players that may not be part of the future. Jordan Kyrou may be one of them. Nick Kypreos said, "Jordan Kyrou's been out there for the last little while. I also believe that he's open to looking at different scenarios on trying to win a Stanley Cup." At this point, the Blues may not be rebuilding, ...

Changes are going to come for the St. Louis Blues this season. With injuries, performances, and moves already being made due to where the team is, the Blues need a bigger shakeup. Nick Bjugstad was already traded and players like Jonatan Berggren and Jack Finley were picked up on waivers. This team is young, will sell their pending UFAs if they can, and also considering trading players with some term. Who that involves may include Robert Thomas, arguably the best player on the Blues. Nick Kypr...

The familiarity factor for the Team Canada roster at the Olympics has been on another level. Doug Armstrong (GM) selected Jordan Binnington and Colton Parayko from his St. Louis Blues , selected Brandon Hagel, Brayden Point, and Anthony Cirelli from Jon Cooper's Tampa Bay Lightning , and the injury replacements, Sam Bennett and Seth Jarvis, both played on the 4 Nations team for Canada. On top of that, the defense selected were all the same and there were very few changes made to the roster, de...

With the St. Louis Blues sliding toward a deadline sell-off, the Detroit Red Wings are getting linked to one of the steadier names that could actually move: veteran right shot defenseman Justin Faulk. Detroit’s blue line has had moments, but the second pair has felt like the spot that needs a real stabilizer, and Faulk checks a lot of the boxes for a team trying to stay in the race without gambling on a pure rental.

The St. Louis Blues are selling. And as they say in the bankrupcy sales: Everything must go. Well, pretty much. Unfortunately, shoppers (i.e. NHL teams) are finding the price tags far too high in St. Louis to do any buying just yet. But the Montreal Canadiens are being urged to go after two of the Blues' big-name trade candidates. Nicolas Cloutier of TVA Sports says the Habs should forget about their long-stated target of a second-line center, and instead go for an elite scoring wi...

A late penalty on Niko Mikkola loomed large in the Florida Panthers costly 5-4 loss to the St. Louis Blues at Enterprise Center.
Mikkola’s drive by of goaltender Joel Hofer with 1:54 left in the game put the Blues on a power play that they cashed in on with nine seconds remaining on the clock when Jimmy Snuggerud whipped Pavel Buchnevich’s circle-to-circle crossing pass past Daniil Tarasov. The second assist went to Jordan Kyrou, who was named First Star for his one-goal, two-assist perfo...

St. Louis is making it clear they are not giving Justin Faulk away for a small price.
