Blues vs. Wild – Preseason Action
Tonight – 7pm

The game recap, as well as thoughts from the game and players can be found HERE.

The Blues take on the Minnesota Wild in their first “official” action of the year tonight at the Scottrade Center.

Unfortunately, there is no TV or radio coverage of the first preseason game of the year, so your best bet is to see it in person. Fortunately for you (and me) tickets are available on sites like StubHub for as low as $3 to $5 with great seats going for $20-$40. Three to five bucks for a Blues game??? Count me in. We finally can scratch that hockey itch (at least I hope that’s what that is) and for little cost. The Blues are sending out a pretty solid lineup, with a few notable exceptions. The Wild’s lineup is… well, patchy at best, but that’s what you expect in preseason.
