I don't want to give the eulogy before the end of the game here, but I was hoping that the Blues could beat the Hawks as St. Louis fans have been pretty patient for a proper rebuild.

Soft on Defense with Bouwmeester, Pietroangelo , Shattenkirk and Leopold.
Jackman and Polak are not truculent enough their own.
They pick Roy as their talented forward and picked wrong.
They were built correctly and as soon as John Davidson moved out they took a big step backwards trading for Bouwmeester.
The Flames started on the right track dumping JBo.
