Los Angeles Kings May 7, 2013LA Kings Insider On whether he’ll use the last change to avoid matching Anze Kopitar’s line against Jay Bouwmeester and Alex Pietrangelo: “It really didn’t affect us last game at all. I mean, best players play against best players…They’re not really a checking role, and neither are we. Best players are going to play a lot.” On whether [...]

St. Louis Game Time The St. Louis Blues made a couple of key trades a few days before the trade deadline that brought in two defensemen: Jordan Leopold from Buffalo and Jay Bouwmeester from Calgary. I think these two charts explain why they went after these two players. Here is the player usage chart from my first Blues by the Numbers post. And here is an image from the most recent player usage chart at HockeyAbstract.com Blues only had three players in March that were solidly in the shut-down quadrant: Backes, Oshie, and Jackman. Now we have 5 with the addition of Leopold and Bouwmeester. That is...

St. Louis Game Time The Blues are masters of their own fate right now, and frankly, that makes me nervous. The Edmonton Oilers are now in sole possession of the last playoff spot for now. The comfort Blues fans can take? We have, at the most, three games in hand on the competition. That's an extra six points. The trick is, they have to win those three games. That, so far this season, has been easier said than done. They did look dominant in Monday's 4-1 win over the Minnesota Wild, and Brian Elliott looked very sharp in relief of the groin-torn Jaroslav Halak. How's Ells approaching this season and his up...
St. Louis Blues April 4, 2013St. Louis Game Time If I do my math right, Jay Bouwmeester last missed a game on March 3, 2004. On March 6, he suited up for the Florida Panthers against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and hasn't missed a single game since. To put that into perspective, the Blues had just fired Quenneville and were playing in front of Chris Osgood. Pavol Demitra was scoring for the Blues. That's been awhile. JayBo was traded from the Panthers in June of 2009 to the Calgary Flames for a draft pick and Jordan Leopold. Ironically, they now find themselves teammates with the St Louis Blues. As they pair up with Alex Pietrangelo and...

St. Louis Game Time Lighting the Lamp with Rick Ackerman Is this April or December? For many Blues fans, it feels like December, just as a kid does on Christmas day after opening up Uncle Doug's presents: defensemen Jay Bouwmeester and Jordan Leopold. And what makes it even more exciting and joyous is that Armstrong did not overpay as neither deal included any roster players or amateur Ty Rattie or any other Blues' highly-regarded prospects. In two fell swoops, the left side of the defense has been firmed up and the Blues arguably have the best starting six defensemen in the entire league. And now that ...
