    Was browsing and saw your 25 most influential Blues list. Not very accurate. Sure you're a dedicated Blues fan, but you were really off base on many picks. Tony Twist ahead of Glenn Hall? There would have been no franchise without Hall's early play. You say Hall's stats weren't "stellar?" Wrong again. A Conn Smythe trophy, Vezina, led the league in shutouts, first expansion player to be named to the first all star team, and was top 5 in goals against average 3 of his 4 years with the team. Where is Scotty Bowman on the list? I mean...come on. Also, your picture of Jacques Plante is actually former back up goalie Ernie Wakely. Joey Mullen, Tkaczuk, and Unger ahead of Berenson? Ridiculous. When you're talking about history, you need to understand context, and you clearly don't.

    Please take a look at my latest article documenting Tim Thomas' rise from nothing to become one of the NHL's premier goaltenders when you get a free moment.

    Thanks,

    I'm beginning the process of naming you a CL. For now though I need to really see what your made of. I understand unlike me, most people have a life away from Bleacher Report but I would love to see as much coverage of the Blues as you can do for Bleacher Report, especially with the Blues (like much of the west) battling for that all important 8th seed.
