The St. Louis Blues will most likely end up in the playoffs this year, that isn’t really what’s at stake. What is most concerning with the Blues start is the inability to get the puck into the net.
The St. Louis Blues are lead by a strong veteran core of David Backes, Alex Steen, Alex Pietrangelo, among others. One of those “others” is 1st year Blues player, Troy Brouwer. Brouwer came to St. Louis by way of the trade with the Washington Capitals for T.J. Oshie.
The Blues new forward, Brouwer, has a Stanley Cup to his CV as well as the knowledge and wisdom that got his team to that point.
