The Blues lost back to back games for the first time this season on Saturday night with a flat, uninspiring, and tired looking effort against the Toronto Maple Leafs. They also managed to lose Zach Sanford to injury, which means that the list of wounded Blues has now grown to five forwards. The Blues still sit atop the Central and the West, but it’s by two points now.
To be frank, that they’ve been playing as well as they have is a testament to the locker room environment on this team.
