Blues are almost 1/4 of the way through the season. If the playoffs started today, they would be 2nd in the Western Conference and playing Arizona or Minnesota or somebody they should beat in 5 games. But this is the Blues. We are a little skittish about what happens come playoff time...

As far as analysis, just watch Tarasenko. He's the real deal and the most pure scorer this team has seen since Brett Hull (albeit in a different manner). And keep an eye on defenseman Colton Parayko. He could win the Calder Trophy this season (Rookie of the Year). Overall a pretty good team that could go deep in the playoffs, if not for the playoff loss albatross they wear around their neck...

Go Blues!!
