For years, the Blues' identity was tied to the players who defined the last era. Thirteen games into the 2026-27 season, a different group now sets the tone.
The St. Louis Blues began a five-game homestand this past week. It was a successful week overall. They started with back-to-back wins over the Winnipeg Jets and Vegas Golden Knights.
We are just 9 games into the 2026-27 NHL season, but people are already beginning to draw some early conclusions on teams and players. For the Blues, the thing that stands out is a lack of consistency in their level of play.
Can you name every winner of the Hart Trophy, which honors the most valuable player in the NHL, since 1983?
Despite the St. Louis Blues having a bit of a rocky start to the 2026/27 season, one of their top-line guys is already making his presence known while helping the rest of his linemates break the team's slump, with a trip to Ottawa tomorrow night.
People love a good mid-round draft pick that pans out, and in the NHL you used to see those fairly often, but that’s obviously partially luck. If the Red Wings thought Nicklas Lidstrom was going to become a top-five defenseman in history, they wouldn’t have waited until the 53rd pick to take him.
St. Louis Blues fans entered this season with plenty of hope after the 2025-26 season. Dylan Holloway and Jimmy Snuggerud emerged as offensive stars after the trade deadline, and many believed they were about to take an even bigger step this season.
The St. Louis Blues took a chance when they tendered an offer sheet to Dylan Holloway in August 2024. Just over two years later, Holloway has emerged as a goal scorer, with a new five-year contract extension signed in May, keeping him in the Blue Note through 2030-31.
Dylan Holloway has already shown the St. Louis Blues what he can do when he is healthy. The next step is finding out how good he can be over an 84-game schedule.
Here are five surprising stats that NHL teams would, mostly, prefer aren't repeated next year.
The St. Louis Blues know what it takes to build a competitive team in the NHL. It is not always about making the biggest offseason move or finding the next superstar.
It’s debatable when exactly NHL GMs are safe to tape those “Gone Fishing” signs to their doors, but we’re close to that point. Give or take 95 percent of the offseason roster turnover happens before July is up.
People will talk about the “Mount Rushmore” for a franchise, which is to say the four people, usually four players, that most define the franchise. Not always the four-best players, but the four that evoke the essence of the franchise.
In a period of the NHL season where most general managers make their biggest mistakes, the best general managers are not only the ones who turn off their phones July 1, but the ones who comb the free-agent market for the best deals they can find.
NHL general managers are finally starting to realize restricted free agency is not only a viable strategy, it might also be one of the best options teams can have in finding impact talent.
The Philadelphia Flyers sent shockwaves through the NHL on Friday afternoon when they announced that they signed Anaheim Ducks restricted free agent Leo Carlsson to a five-year offer sheet.
There are three players whose status as restricted free agents could lead to them changing teams.
Almost five years ago, the Edmonton Oilers made a trade so bad that it still has ramifications to this day. On July 23, 2021, they sent the 20th overall selection to the Minnesota Wild for the 22nd overall pick and the 90th overall.
The Edmonton Oilers made yet another head-coaching change on Thursday, firing Kris Knoblauch less than two weeks after their first-round exit in the playoffs.

Dylan Holloway‘s return from a high ankle sprain will be short-lived. According to a team announcement, the St. Louis Blues have placed Holloway back on the injured reserve and recalled Matt Luff and Hugh McGing under emergency conditions.
When Dylan Holloway returned to the Blues’ lineup last weekend after missing 15 games with an ankle fracture, his comeback was short-lived. He made just one appearance, logging a -2 rating in 12:45 of ice time against the Oilers, before coming back out of the lineup.
The St. Louis Blues will be without forward Dylan Holloway for at least the next six weeks as he recovers from an injury to his right ankle, the club announced Monday morning.
Is Dylan Holloway having buyer’s remorse? Once a top prospect in the Edmonton Oilers system who played a part in the team’s top-six during their 2024 run to the Stanley Cup Final, two months after being eliminated, he was changing addresses.
As the St. Louis Blues look toward solidifying their core for the future, a recent post in The Athletic discussed what Dylan Holloway‘s next contract looks like.
This is more lacrosse than hockey.
Holloway left behind a golden opportunity to play alongside McDavid on a championship-caliber team.
Holloway left Tuesday night’s game on a stretcher after taking a puck to the throat in a freak accident.
St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway suffered a scary injury Tuesday night.
