Blues fans know that the 2025-26 season has not gone according to plan. A post-Olympic hot streak has not been enough to overcome the hole they dug themselves early in the year, and while they aren’t yet mathematically eliminated, it’s looking like we can call it a season with 5 games remaining. Despite a down year, can the Blues bounce back sooner rather than later, or are we facing a longer-term rebuild? Today, Sam Kohler joins us to break down what went wrong this season, and discuss if the Blues are still good enough to compete as soon as next season.

Before this week, the Blues were one of the hottest teams in the NHL, putting themselves in position to compete for a playoff spot. They had a chance this week to hold the second wild card, but lost two critical games to the Sharks and Kings. Now, they’re 4 points out with 5 teams standing between them and the playoffs, leaving us feeling like the playoff dream is officially dead. What happened? How did the Blues get themselves in the race, and what went wrong this week? Will it end up hurting them in the draft lottery? Was this a “pointless” hot streak that will damage them in the long run?
