The interference on Halak is still a BS call, but we gotta play better.

That wasn't a bad game. The team went toe to toe with a very good Blackhawks team on the road and came out with a point. Sure, you'd like to get a win there and you hate losing a 2-0 lead. But it's no like the Blues were totally outplaying the Blackhawks, or that we lost to a team we should be beating.

It was an even game that the Blues had a chance to win, and against the elite teams in the Western Conference that's about the best you can ask for at this point in the season.

Even with the three straight losses and losing the leads this team has a positive goal differential and is on pace for 98 points after 5 games. I'm not ready to compare them to last year just yet.

We've picked up a point in 5 out of 6 games, I'd have to imagine that OT records tend to even out over the year. 2 of the 3 we've "lost" on the road, we've gone to OT. Even the Preds game was a good game. We've been competitive in every skate so far, I am not even remotely out on this team.

Yeah, I haven't paid any attention at all, but saw the score along the crawler and thought to myself an overtime loss to the Hawks can't be too bad.

Could have been worse, but that was a hell of a choke job last night.

Why is there choke in hockey yet no clutch in baseball?
