Two for Chirping

We're are back with our first real taste of the 2025-26 season! We break down the Blues’ opening three preseason games—what stood out, what needs work, and who’s making a case for roster spots. Plus, our brand-new segment Chirps of the Week makes its debut (one chirp each!), before we dive into broader Blues talk and wrap it all up with an around-the-league check-in. Preseason may not count in the standings, but there’s plenty to talk about.

The Blues are officially back on the ice, and we were there to see it firsthand. From training camp practices to scrimmage action, we break down how the new draft picks and fresh faces are fitting in. We dive deep into defensive pairings, who might quarterback the power play from the blue line, and what stood out most from camp. Hockey season is coming fast, and the vibes are high.

The Pacific Division is shifting, and we’re charting the waves. We cover the players teams added and lost, how the Blues might fare against the division, and the behind-the-scenes factors that impact more than just the scoreboard.

The Central Division was a grind last season, and the Blues found themselves battling every night. In this episode, we look back at how St. Louis matched up against each Central team — starting at the top with Dallas and Winnipeg — and work our way down the standings.

We dive into what the Blues did well (and not so well), and then shift to the offseason moves across the division: trades, departures, and roster shake-ups that could reshape the Central in 2025–26. From contenders reloading to rebuilds in progress, here’s how it all lines up for the year ahead.

It’s the very first episode of Two for Chirping: Gals from the Lou, watching all 32! We're kicking things off by breaking down last season, talking through the offseason moves, and setting the tone for 2025-26. No analytics in sight at this stage in the pre-season, just straight vibes. Buckle up, Blues fans — it’s going to be a ride.
