2-0 in '26, There is Hope

Puck Watching ·

2026/01/05

The Blues are 2–0 to start 2026, but the bigger question is how they’re getting there.Strong goaltending, heavy minutes from the top of the lineup, and timely goals have carried them early, while familiar issues — turnovers, second-period lapses, and thin margins — still linger beneath the surface. Using recent performances from Robert Thomas and Pavel Buchnevich, we zoom out to evaluate what’s sustainable, what’s fragile, and what this start might actually tell us about the Blues moving forward

Silent Night, Chaotic Blues

Puck Watching ·

2025/12/24

It’s a Christmas Eve edition of the pod as we sort out whether the Blues belong on the Naughty or Nice list. From frustrating slow starts and special-teams struggles to Joel Hofer’s shutouts and Justin Faulk’s career-year resurgence, we debate which version of this team is real. We break down the Blues’ identity crisis, hand out Christmas gifts to the biggest risers, and ask the ultimate holiday question: are these wins signs of a playoff-style team—or just wrapping paper over bigger issues?

Winning Small, Losing Big

Puck Watching ·

2025/12/13

This week felt like a snapshot of the entire Blues season. One-goal wins, lopsided losses, and a team that struggles to control games even when it scores first. We break down what went wrong in Nashville, what went right against Chicago, and why this roster’s lack of margin for error keeps showing up when adversity hits. Plus, Robert Thomas continues to heat up, depth players are being asked to do more than ever, and the goal differential stat that explains everything finally comes into focus
