Looked better last night. The wings' goalie was the difference though. At least we got 1 pt.

Forwards gotta get going. it's good that Shatty is scoring... it's not so good he's tied for 2nd in goals on the team.

Agreed.
Before the season started, I figured we'd have our ups and downs. The hot start was promising, but they've gotta get through some growing pains.

Blues retiring #5 for Bob Plager:

Article touches on it, but it does seem weird to retire it for Plager when Jax wore it for so long.

#5 was in a weird state of flux. It was up in the rafters for Bobby, but was still in circulation. I never really understood it.MrCrowesGarden wrote:Blues retiring #5 for Bob Plager:

Jackman wore it forever, he's played the most games as a Blues defenseman so it's possible the retire him as #5 at some point as well.Popeye_Card wrote:#5 was in a weird state of flux.

As an outsider's perspective, I find it odd that the # would even be handed out to begin with. Wouldn't the trainer be like, "Uh, maybe you should pick another #? That's Plager's."???MrCrowesGarden wrote:Blues retiring #5 for Bob Plager:

Good news: forwards got a goal tonight.
Bad news: it was just one goal.
Good news: that was enough.
Offense isn't clicking but Allen was on.
