Parayko needs to shoot and get points
Mailloux is like a completely different person. It's exciting to see. Still obviously making some mistakes, but each one doesn't seem to crush his soul haha.

Young and inexperienced. I love the edge he has also, sorely lacking and much needed on this team.

It’s weird how aggressive we’re playing in the third and we’re getting chances but in in the second we let the other team walk all over us

I know, right. It's like the offensive rush is where the Blues go to die. I'd say 9 out of 10 offensive rushes either end with a turnover or a dump and chase that yields neither shot nor pressure and often just comes right back down their own throat.

Not even enjoyable to watch anymore.
You actually are allowed to stop watching if you want. It's a pretty new rule they made AFAIK
Smart (donkey) stuff. Why Dalton? Why? You can stop posting as well. It's not great hockey and it invites some criticism. Just stop man.
The poster said it's not enjoyable to watch anymore. Why would you do something that doesn't bring you enjoyment? Life is too short.
Because he's a Blues hockey fan, thats why. It might not turn around this year but it could. We, as Blues fans aren't quitters. We love the organization and the team. Why would anybody quit watching? It's part of our lives Daltons. Yours too. There's nothing wrong with criticizing the team when they play poorly.
I'm not sure where you got that I have issue with criticizing them? I do it plenty. But I also, in spite of the rough stretch, enjoy watching the team.

If given the choice, I generally don't do things that I don't find enjoyable, though, so it's hard for me to understand why others would choose otherwise.

It's really not a big deal.
I don't think he really meant that he doesnt enjoy it. I bet he's just frustrated with the play of the team this year. There's nothing wrong with getting frustrated in this teams play. Just don't blast people for being frustrated. Thats my point. You are a good dude as far as im concerned. I just hate the unwarranted criticism on here. No worries here. I apologize if I came off too harsh.

Way to pull up at the blue line with the goalie pulled Faulk.

For now just work on being fun to watch…
I don’t understand this mindset.

Explain why you’d rather essentially get nothing out of this season, rather than have a (potentially) star player with the high end talent we need at the end of it.

I honestly had no intention of blasting. I just meant it as a genuine reminder that it's ok to step back occasionally. Taking a little break does not make you less of a fan.

You obviously didn't watch the last place blues who drafted the franchise changing Eric Johnson...

Want to know why the Blues have been the worst 5 on 6 and 6 on 5 teams since the beginning of last season?

…..#72 is out there almost every time for 6 on 5s and 70% of 5 on 6s

I was around for that. And the unfortunate reality of the situation was we sucked one season too late for the Crosby draft and one season too early for the Kane draft.

I comprehend just fine.

It’s just a weird mindset to want to make the playoff and get swept and get a mid round pick that’s 3-4 years away if at all rather than get an almost sure thing at the top of a pretty strong draft.

You essentially get nothing in the first scenario and the season was a waste.

He was the consensus #1 pick by EVERYONE.

Whoever got the #1 pick was taking Johnson

Should have traded him after his good start.
