Can Blues Crown Kings?

By Sean Gallagher

The Kings of Leon are trying to give the Blues a reason to win tonight.Everyone loves a good revenge story; well, everyone who has ever been wronged anyway. But you know who really loves a good revenge story? Head coaches. And Andy Murray's got plenty of revenge storylines to tick off for his team tonight:

1. The Kings are the team that canned him.

2. The Kings are the team that shelled the Blues at home 4-0.

3. A bunch of the players got shut out of the recent Kings of Leon concert at the Pageant when it sold out.

And yeah, that last one is pretty shaky, but sometimes coaches have to stretch for a good pre-game speech.

Injured and on the road for the better part of a week now, we'll see if the youngish Blues can beat the youngish Kings in their own building and re-pay the favor.

No live blog tonight folks: just too many people out and about tonight. Dooks, we'll work you in soon.

Have fun, play nice and bring home a winner.

Let's Go Blues!

ha, yeah, believe me im not living it up here, the only reason i have it is because i wanted to see how much getting the charter “sports view” package to tack onto my basic for college hockey season. turns out it was only $5 a month and NHL network is included in the extra like 7 channels.

I don’t get why he pulled the goalie too early. L. A. has pissed me off so far. Why can’t they beat them, grrr. This team is pissing me off. I am sick of those penalties, their penalty kill blows. I’m even more sick of the refs. At least they got a goal. (3 of them) Thought they’d get shut out again.

by tab on Nov 9, 2008 1:07 AM CST reply actions  

Well, at least the Blues have learned to how to lose in a dramatic fashion this year.

by Dan on Nov 9, 2008 9:53 AM CST reply actions  

Why do they even bother pulling the goalie? Usually they give up an empty net goal within 15 seconds.

by david on Nov 10, 2008 2:39 PM CST reply actions  

because Bacashihua was the only one who could get to the bench fast enough to get that extra attacker out there to avoid that empty netter
