Monday night’s 6-1 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights had approximately zero bright spots other than to remind fans that the trade deadline is Monday. The Blues are now in fifth place in the West Division, five points behind the Arizona Coyotes (who they only play once more this season), and incapable of scoring. Dragging Colton Parayko back to play defense on Monday was a failed experiment, though you can’t get upset at Parayko for the near 20 minute of desperation game time the team had to play him.
Husso, despite a solid game against Colorado in his previous start, looked like a deer in headlights.
