To say last night’s game against the Oilers got off to a rough start is an incredibly large understatement. The Blues allowed four goals in a first period for the first time since 2019, and all of them were bad. Bad defense played a huge role in the first two - do you miss Torey Krug yet? - and bad goaltending played a role in the second. I don’t buy that the Blues consciously play more poorly in front of Jordan Binnington, but if you’re a person who feels that way, the team gave you evidence of that last night.
