Did the win streak die last night?

[a smell of green grass]

First I told you in April that the late win-streak meant nothing, that March is when teams quit.
Florida lost 8 of their last 10 games.

Then my sock puppet, Douglas Army, told you in August to not expect the winning-streak ways to continue this season.

Are we all on board now that the late win streak last season did nothing but damage our draft standing?

Smell, I haven’t completely discounted your argument but my guess is Charbonneau will probably end up better than a number of guys drafted above him. We’ll see.

Your supposed theory is that Armstrong is the horrible problem. But the reality is you wish and love it when the Blues as a team stumble or fail. It's because you know that you are and have been a total loser your entire life. Quit projecting your self-hate, because you have never been accepted by any group of people, never made any athletic team. It hurts, so this forum is your only outlet in a continuing failed effort to attempt to prove that you really know more, or are better than what you really are.

So we should have abandoned the playoffs so that we could get a better draft pick? The goal is to win the Cup. You can’t win the Cup if you don’t make the playoffs.

This guy has to be a schtick right? No way he really thinks like that is there?

[sdaltons]

Yes. It was at 2. Now it is at 0. That's how losses work.

Well, Army is the GM so you will get your way. So when March rolls around, this mediocre Blues team will again find a win streak and vie for the playoffs. AND SURPRISE SURPRISE, the team that was barely seen on National TV before March will be on constantly. That's the time of the year that the Blues hipcheck everything moving in a golf cart, and win.

So go ahead and root for the team that makes March interesting.

If they had one fewer point they would not have made the playoffs. They would still have drafted a player that not only I told you specifically about IN APRIL who they should draft and eventually did draft, but also you said you went to the prospect camp and thought it was an outstanding pick.

You're a sham all the way down

I bet Carbonneau will as well.

However, will Carbonneau be the young elite C that we need? The young elite RHD that we need?

Nope. At our draft position, the C and RHD positions are already taken.

If Army is lucky, Carbonneau will become the next Bolduc, and we'll trade him away for another raffle chance on a RHD, or maybe even a C.

I love Carbonneau and still do. However, the only problem is that we need a C and a RHD, and the elite ones were gone.

Remember about a month ago when you heard that the Blues have a "glut of wingers", and therefore we can try to trade for a position of need?

Well, guess what. The GLUT existed before the 2025 draft --- SO WHY TAKE ANOTHER WINGER at the draft? Why do you think that happened?

Of course "we" [Blues] should have. No sports team that doesn't have depth of top-5 draft picks should ever aspire to win games, set winning streak records, or make the playoffs and give a President's Trophy team a hard time, going over 16 minutes in 2OT in game 7.

I reject these bloggers and their opinions outright, it's either immaturity or they are playing mind games (being dishonest). Since the beginning in 1967 I have never attended or tuned in to a Blues game wanting them to lose, or being satisfied that they did lose [except for a brief period when I was trying to be a hometown Thrashers fan and the Blues were down]. What fan would?

Please, why do YOU think that happened? I could tell you but that would bore everyone else because we all know why. It would be much more interesting to see if you could answer your own question honestly, demonstrating some basic understanding of why they drafted Carbonneau and how he projects to fit in the teams plans. To see if there's at least a 10-watt light bulb of substance in there or if if this is all a game you're playing.

I encourage everyone to give an ear to outside opinion on what an NHL team needs to win.

ONLY ARMSTRONG AND THE BLUES will tell you that top-tier elite talent is NOT NEEDED on the roster! They are the only team in the NHL to say this.

Instead, the Blues focus on "staying compettive". That is their highest priority, and that is how they spell success.

Do you know who wins when the Blues "stay competitive"? The wallet, and I'm not talking about yours.

Do you know what happens when the wallet is not served the same way in 1 CITY, compared to all others?

Answer: Stan Kroenke moves the Rams to LA.

If St Louis can't play on the same field, on the same terms as every other franchise, they I say MOVE MOVE MOVE. I don't care to watch cash registers ring.

You take Carbonneau because he is a special player and was the best player available. You don't draft for need in round 1 certainly. That is why that happened.

Part of the reason it happened is because you have correctly noticed that there tends to be a run on centers and it displaces wingers. Notice that Victor Eklund fell too. But that is other orgs feeling tension about the position. Had Carbonneau been taken the pick prior, the Blues would/should have drafted Reschny next because he was BPA and you can never have too many, But the same person who told you that Carbonneau would be an excellent pick is telling you that the Blues have Dvorsky who is going to be a center. Looks like they want Stancl to be a center too, based on early returns in Springfield. So why do you belligerently choose to ignore what you want to ignore in order to serve this daily grind of new threads saying the same thing and agitating the same 100 people over and over as if you are preaching to a choir of thousands. Look at the thread reads, man. You're telling the same people the same thing. Every day. You know that is antisocial. You reply with all the game playing and all this fanciful blather of third personry, whatever. You're deliberately being antisocial and you know it. Just, choose to stop. Ok? Take a break at the very minimum. Jesus dude

There will be no "break" from Smelly! He lives to antagonize. It's like oxygen for him. Same groundhog day over and over with this "SPECIAL" poster!
