2FC 1.25: Blues Heating Up at the Perfect Time

2FC 1.28: Ending on a High Note

The Blues may have missed the playoffs, but they didn’t go quietly. St. Louis closes out the season with three huge wins and a surge of scoring, giving us plenty to be excited about heading into the offseason. We break down what clicked, who showed out, and what this momentum could mean moving forward. Then, it’s time to shift gears — playoff hockey is here. We run through our full bracket, share our predictions, and get into the matchups we’re most excited (and nervous) about across the league.

2FC 1.27: No Playoff Blues — Now What?

The Blues are officially eliminated from playoff contention. With three games still left to play, the final blow came from out west as the Kings’ win over the Oilers mathematically knocked St. Louis out of the race. A tough way for the season to end, especially with meaningful hockey still on the schedule. This week was a perfect snapshot of the season: a huge statement win against Colorado, followed by a flat rematch, a frustrating loss to Winnipeg, and finally a strong bounce-back win over Chicago. We break down the emotional rollercoaster, what ultimately cost the Blues a playoff spot, and what we still want to see from this team in the final stretch.

2FC 1.26: Playoff Push… But At What Cost?

Episode 1.26 and the Blues are still hanging in the playoff race… but it wasn’t the strongest week. After grabbing just 3 out of 6 possible points, we’re breaking down what’s missing. It starts with consistent scoring. The defense continues to hold steady and the goaltending is doing enough to keep them competitive, but without offensive production, it’s hard to feel confident down the stretch. And even if they do sneak into the playoffs… do we really want a first-round matchup with a 110-point Avalanche team?  We get into it all: the good, the frustrating, and what needs to change ASAP if this team wants to make any real noise.

2FC 1.25: Blues Heating Up at the Perfect Time

The Blues are heating up at exactly the right time. After going 4-1-1 in their last six games, St. Louis is playing some of their best hockey of the season and it’s the young guns leading the charge. We break down the recent stretch of big wins, the noticeable progression across the lineup, and why this team suddenly feels different. Snuggerud, Holloway, Broberg, and Mailloux are stepping up in a big way, and it’s translating to results on the ice. With the Blues sitting just four points out of a playoff spot, we talk about what needs to happen down the stretch.

2FC 1.24: Seven of Eight & Feeling Great

The Blues might finally be hitting their stride. St. Louis picked up 7 out of 8 possible points this week and looked like the most complete version of themselves we’ve seen all season. We break down the four-game stretch, why the Holloway–Thomas–Snuggerud line is clicking, and how the youth movement is driving the momentum. Then it’s time for some chirping. After a dirty hit ended Auston Matthews’ season, we talk about the lack of response from his Toronto teammates and why that kind of silence says a lot about team culture. One thing we know for sure — the Blues always stand up for their guys, and that’s a standard we love to see.
