The St. Louis Blues season is over, Doug Armstrong might be on a bender, and a few of the NHL Playoff matchups are Super Effective.

The St. Louis Blues finally lost! Which is what they're SUPPOSED to do right now! But on Wrestlemania weekend, the guys' focus is elsewhere.

The St. Louis Blues are on winning streak, and it's TERRIBLE! So the guys calm their emotions with a little geography lesson.

It's another day, and another Jordan Binnington tantrum on the ice. The guys are tired of talking about it, but they'll devote a whole episode to it, anyway.

The St. Louis Blues continue to struggle. We continue to suffer. But at least we've got cookies.

The St. Louis Blues traded all of their unrestricted free agents, then made surprise additions of Kasperi Kapanen and Jakub Vrána. Where does that leave the franchise and the rebuild... retool... re-whatever? The guys discuss.

The St. Louis Blues have traded their captain, Ryan O'Reilly, to the Toronto Maple Leafs. It's a sad day. But it's also the start of the future.

The era of Vladimir Tarasenko in St. Louis is over. He's been traded to New York Rangers. In 644 career games with St. Louis, Tarsenko finished fifth all-time in goals scored with 262, as well as fifth in points with 553. He graced the cover NHL 17, was a two-time All-Star, notched a 40-goal season in 2015-16. Throughout it all, he was a consummate professional, devoting his time on and off the ice to the city and community he loved. No one will ever forget his heart-warming relationship with pediatric cancer patient Arianna Dougan, which brought more light to the scourge of pediatric cancer. Eventually, the organization "Spread Ari's Light" was formed in her honor (donation link included below) Vova realized his ultimate dream of bringing a Stanley Cup to St. Louis in the summer of 2019. Though the relationship may have soured since then, he is and remains a franchise legend and will receive nothing but love in this podcast. Once, in his article for The Player's Tribune, Vladdy wrote: "I came to St. Louis five years ago. I was a little scared. But here, I have found home. Thank you." Though St. Louis might no longer be his hockey home, here's hoping it remains his true home for a long time to come. Do Svidanya, Vladdy. All the best in New York.

On Groundhog Day, the guys ask the kitchen if they serve Deja Vu because the guys are certainly feeling it. Doug Armstrong is hurtling towards the trade deadline faster than Phil Conners towards a train on an all night bender, but Doug's guessing he's gonna swerve first. The guys look back on how the hell the Blues ended up where they now are, facing down the prospect of a total rebuild. Too late for flapjacks?

The St. Louis Blues continue their more-or-less .500 season with an embarrassing loss at home to the hapless Chicago Blackhawks. But they are far from the most embarrassing thing in the NHL this week...

The St. Louis Blues continue to be unpredictable as the injuries mount up. The guys talk about... things... I'm gonna be honest, it's almost 1:00 AM ET as I write this and I just got back from watching the Jaguars mount an all-time NFL comeback. I don't have the willpower to write catchy show notes. So if you read this, congratulations. I hope you enjoyed my suffering. Oh yeah, one last thing: DUUUUUUUUUVAAAAAAAAAALLL!!!!

This episode was recorded on Wednesday. It was posted on Saturday. Because one of the guys is an idiot. No telling who, but his name rhymes with even.

The St. Louis Blues have had a fine week, just fine. 2022 draws to a close, and the guys talk about the Blues trade chips.

The St. Louis Blues seemed to be on a winning streak until Seattle dragged them back down to the depths! Now they wait for a pre-Christmas matchup in Vegas to show us their true identity. Meanwhile... it's cold!

The Blues are improving, the holidays are here, what's there to be upset about?

The St. Louis Blues are woeful. Jordan Binnington is running his mouth. Christmas is coming, but it doesn't feel very holly or jolly for Gateway City Hockey Fans. Let's remember — we love each other and this team. Strap in, folks.

The guys are tired of the back and forth, but they don't see it ending anytime soon. Fortunately, the holidays are here, and the new Pokemon is out, so there are lots of distractions to talk about! Enjoy!

The St. Louis Blues won seven games in a row, after losing eight games in a row. Did they erase the losing streak? No! The guys feel very strongly about that, and a lot of tHanksgiving traditions, and they express their emotions in this episode.

The St. Louis Blues have lost a franchise-record eight games in a row (before a victory over the San Jose Sharks). Is the victory a sign of better things to come? No. Probably not. Let's discuss.

The St. Louis Blues are on a six game losing streak, and the guys search for answers.

The Blues are in a losing skid and the guys are hot and bothered. But at least we don't have to record in the Arizona Coyotes' away dressing room!

The NHL has finally released its full slate of Reverse Retro jerseys, and it's a predictable mixed bag! But the guys will tier rank ALL of them in this audio podcast! Plus: the Blues are back, and they're winning! But it ain't all pretty.

The 2022-23 season has started, but the Blues don't play until Saturday! That means the guys have time to do their final offseason episode, previewing the Central Division and the Blues season! This was all part of the plan, definitely not just poor planning and delays. Nope. Not this podcast.

The guys are back to discuss the departure of Klim Kostin. It's disappointing to see him leave, but he deserves a shot at a new destination. Can we cram any more D words into this description? Delightful! Doubtlessly, the dudes depart from the Kostin debate the destinies of teams in the Pacific Division. Digest their disagreements at your own desired tempo. Dios mio!

The guys take a break from roasting the St. Louis Blues to roast the OTHER 31 teams and their miserable fan bases. Enjoy! And Happy October!

The St. Louis Blues have done very little this week, but at least training camp started! Nathan MacKinnon got paid, Adam Levine got laid (ALLEGEDLY!) and the Atlantic Division is where playoff dreams are made. The guys discuss it all until not another word can be... said... on this latest episode.

It’s that time of year when the leaves start to change, and the offseason melts away into the preseason. That means it’s time to preview the division, and the guys start with the boring one! The Metro! But not until they take a deep dive into Jordan Kyrou's new contract!

It’s that time of year again: time for us to speculate wildly about prospects we know little or nothing about utilizing a shape made famous by the ancient Egyptians. It’s not a rookie rhombus! It’s not a Draftee Dodecahedron! It’s a Prospect Pyramid! The self-proclaimed fan-favorite is back and the guys are so excited to bring it to you.

There are things to talk about, and in this episode, they are discussed!

The St. Louis Blues' offseason continues to drag along, but at least there's the WJC to discuss. Plus! The guys blatantly rob the Athletic for story ideas and settle once and for all which original Pokémon game is the best.

The hockey world is focused on Edmonton because that's all there is to focus on. Alberta is playing host to the rescheduled 2022 World Junior Championship, and the guys are ready to talk about it (because that's all there is to talk about).

The St. Louis Blues' offseason continues to disappoint, Matthew Tkachuk is a Blue, and we've entered the darkest timeline. August 6th, 2022 will forever be known as the day this podcast was recorded.

Matthew Tkachuk is on the trade block. That's it. That's the podcast.

The St. Louis Blues are... changing... but not for the better. But at least Robert Thomas is locked down long term! And at least the Blackhawks are collapsing!! And at least the fringe teams in the NHL are finally getting good! There's fun stuff happening in hockey, even if it's not in the Gateway City right now.

The St. Louis Blues look to be losing David Perron and keeping Vladimir Tarasenko. But there are many balls in the air. With just over 16 hours before free agency starts, Stephen takes a look at the latest.

The St. Louis Blues have drafted Jimmy Snuggerud 23rd overall in the NHL Draft, and done NOTHING else! But the Chicago Blackhawks have destroyed their entire franchise! It's time to celebrate!!

The offseason is officially in full swing. Now, quick, post this before it gets any more out of date!

The Avalanche are one game away from a Stanley Cup, and the Coaching Carousel is spinning! The Thunderbirds are fighting for the Calder Cup, and there's so much to talk about! Click play and let's get into it!

Two teams remain in the race to find out who will be the Stanley Cup Champion. Never seen Taffy Lee Fubbins took on Michael Patrick Porkins have we seen a showdown this epic. But who will prevail? The Blues meanwhile are looking ahead towards the offseason. Who will return? Who will depart? Did an owl murder Kathleen Peterson? What new faces will we get to meet? Is Doug Armstrong playing 4D Chess? It's a lot to cover, and the guys get to it all in this jam-packed episode.

The St. Louis Blues are out of the playoffs, but things have been worse in the past. This episode covers... a lot. So strap in folks!

The St. Louis Blues have been elimi... Wait a minute, WHAT?!

The St. Louis Blues made a complete ass of themselves on Monday night. But there's only two more sleeps before this whole debacle is over.

The St. Louis Blues have lost Game 3, but more importantly, they have apparently lost starting goaltender Jordan Binnington. Has Nazem "Nonsense" Kadri's bloodlust struck again? Or is this situation a little more nuanced? The Guys discuss and look at St. Louis' prospects for the rest of the series should Binnington be unable to return.

The St. Louis Blues flipped the script by not just stealing a game, but dominating Game 2 in the second round against the Colorado Avalanche. Now, Blues fans have a legitimate reason to believe their team has a shot in this series, and the Guys couldn't BE more excited!

The St. Louis Blues lost Game 1 to the Colorado Avalanche — or, more accurately, Jordan Binnington lost game 1 to the Colorado Avalanche. Or, more accurately still, Jordan Binnington was the only player who DIDN'T lose Game 1? I've lost the thread. The point is: Jordan Binnington very good. Colorado Avalanche just slightly better. Rest of the St. Louis Blues... 💩 Follow our unfiltered in-game thoughts at https://www.twitter.com/twoguysonecup

The St. Louis Blues have defeated the Minnesota Wild in six games to advance to the second round of the NHL playoffs. Now facing a tough series with the Colorado Avalanche, the future is anyone's guess. But let's pause a while and enjoy the present!

It's 2:00 AM. Imagine I wrote something witty here.

Hey! They didn't do the thing, they did the other thing! Happy Mother's Day to everyone out there, especially Bonnie O'Reilly, our new celebrity!

On that 1-10 pain chart they use in hospitals, nobody accounted for being a Blues fan in the playoffs... The guys air their dyspeptic discontent for the benefit of their listening (cat) audience.

The St. Louis Blues were never going to make it easy. Never, ever, ever...

The St. Louis Blues get off to a great start in Game 1 of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs, beating the Minnesota Wild in Minnesota by a score of 4-0. The game's top star is David Perron, who did everything in this game, spending four minutes in the penalty box, scoring a hat trick, and even notching an assist. But goalie Ville Husso looked spectacular as well in his playoff debut, recording a shutout on 37 shots.

The Scorpion King soundtrack is litty, and there is nothing else to talk about.

How else would you describe the St. Louis Blues? This is the best the offense has ever looked, by every metric — a franchise record 4-goal-game streak, a franchise record for points in a period, and a franchise record for "lines with guys named Pavel Robert and Vladimir that are all point-per-game players and seem like really cool guys that it would be fun to hang out with, probably!" Nothing terrible is EVER gonna happen. to this team!

Robert Thomas is Elite. Unfortunately, our audio quality is not! The good news is, Stephen is off hotel wifi forever! This podcast is already outdated! Recorded Monday night, we can't even cover the incredible win in Boston. But that will come soon.

The St. Louis Blues have been hot and cold, but they're hot right now so we can't be angry, even though we kinda wanna! We're not Will Smith angry, though, that's the good news. And keep Robert Thomas' name outchya freakin mouth!

The trade deadline has come and gone, and the St. Louis Blues have done... soooooomething. The Blues acquired Nick Leddy for Oskar Sundqvist, Jake Walman, and a second-round pick. It's a strange move, but maybe not as bad as the guys' originally thought. More broadly, they discuss where the Blues are at and what's coming next. Then they do a quick hit on every trade that went on this week. The Nick Leddy era begins now!

The Blues complete a fantastic 7-4 victory over the Nashville Predators, and it's a win so good that Stephen has to talk about it all by himself in a Hawaii hotel room ahead of Ian's nuptials (a word that shouldn't be spelled that way)! Pardon the subpar audio, but I did not put my microphone in my checked bag. Because I am not a psychopath. If you've read this far in the show notes, though, you might be! So who should really be judging who here, huh? Okay. You're right. I'm sorry. We're trying to get better, we promise.

The Blues have been hot, but lost a tough one against the Rangers, so instead of overreacting, the guys just make fun of the Blackhawks instead.

The Blues have won three games in a row, but that's not where anyone's mind is tonight.

The St. Louis Blues have lost to a historically bad hockey team, but it's just one game, right? Wrong! The Blues are showing some worrying symptoms lately and the guys are here to talk about it.

While many coaches in the NHL were being fired, Craig Berube "secured the bag" as the kids say by signing an extension to be the head coach of the St. Louis Blues. Can anyone truly be upset by this inevitable outcome? Probably, but not these guys! Though the contract certainly would have washed down better with a better performance against New Jersey! Also in this episode, Brad Marchand beclowns himself, the Arizona Coyotes beclown themselves, Gary Bettman beclowns himself, and other beclownings! Plus, Tuukka Rask retires, Alexei Toropchenko, Logan Brown, and Robert Bortuzzo sign extensions, and the guys remember the Mapquest days!

Rocky Wirtz, owner of the Chicago Blackhawks, makes an absolute public disgrace of himself, and the guys react. Plus, the Royal Rumble came to town!

The Blues have had quite a week, and it's hard to figure out what we should believe about this team. So instead the guys speculated wildly! Plus, the "Dellbow," the Coyotes' new den, and the long-awaited return to the 2G1C podcast of the one and only... Mike... YEOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Jim Matheson set NHL Twitter on fire with a single word. Now, the 2G1C podcasts attempts to do the same!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times as the Blues go from the high of dominating the Winter Classic to the low of being dominated by Sidney Crosby. The guys break down everything from this strange week in a two-hour extravaganza!

The St. Louis Blues are back, and so is Ian! After the ravages of COVID tried to destroy Christmas, the guys are reunited and ready to talk hockey again! Unfortunately, they won't be talking about the World Junior Championship, because that's been canceled. The confusing pandemic world continues to be unpredictable, but at least they have each other!

The NHL is ravaged by COVID and indecision, as always. They are making a mockery of themselves, and the guys discuss it. But, despite their misfortunes and all the chaos, the Blues are as hot as they've been all season. What does it mean? The guys discuss it all!

The St. Louis Blues are led into battle by the greatest of all Australian hockey legends, Nathan Walker! And the guys celebrate their 200th (sort of) episode.

The St. Louis Blues have had quite a strange week, as have many folks around the NHL. Brandon Lemieux bit Brady Tkachuk several times, and that's been like the sixth-most talked about story this week! The guys do their best to cover it all.

The New Jersey Devils have released a Jersey jersey crime upon the world, and the Blues are... inconsistent, to say the least. Plus, is turkey a must at Thanksgiving? (Yes.)

The St. Louis Blues are in a tailspin, but how bad is it, really? The guys discuss it in detail, with math and everything!

The Anaheim Ducks GM Bob Murray resigned this week following bombshell reporting.., to one of Gary Bettman's beloved hotlines! Plus, Jake Neighbours sent down, Pavel Buchnevich heats up, and the Blues are... good? Bad? Who's to say!

The guys get together to discuss everything going on in the NHL, including the Jack Eichel trade, the horrifyingly bad Gary Bettman press conference, and the Blues weird two-game stretch. This episode deals with the Gary Bettman press conference, which revolves around Kyle Beach's story of sexual assault. If these topics are sensitive for you, or you'd rather skip them, please avoid 22:30 - 44:45.

The St. Louis Blues have had anything BUT a spooky start to the season, but the guys are back with their annual spooktacular! Will the crypt keeper make an appearance? Or will they come face to face with a ghoul?! Stay tuned! (Note: this episode was recorded before the Blues' 1-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night. But, as ever, F*** the Hawks (and Jonathan Toews especially))

This week, the long-simmering story of corruption in the Chicago Blackhawks’ organization has come to a full boil as the results of the Jenner & Block investigation and the identity of Kyle Beach, formerly known as the victim John Doe in this case, came public. In short, we have seen contrasting profiles in courage and cowardice take center stage in possibly the most public and damning scandal the NHL has ever seen. The following are resources for victims of sexual assault. National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673 (HOPE) Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network: https://www.rainn.org/ Missouri Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence: https://www.mocadsv.org/ Illinois Collation Against Sexual Assault: https://www.icasa.org/

The St. Louis Blues are hot hot hot! They are one of the few remaining undefeated teams in the NHL! And the guys are excited to talk about it. But first! They'll talk about Evander Kane, Charlie McAvoy, who's hot, and who is NAHT!

Oh, well, oh I never! Was there ever a pod so clever as the magical Two Guys One Cup Podcast? Probably! But you're listening to it anyway, so the jokes really on you, isn't it? The guys discuss the contract extension frenzy around the league, and then dive into their Blues preview and NHL free agency, all with a bit of a Broadway flair!

The guys unite for their Central Division Preview. But first: they'll discuss Robin Lehner's lengthy lecture for the NHL. Will this league ever change? Probably not. But the guys will keep yelling at them, anyway.

The St. Louis Blues traded Zach Sanford, acquired Logan Brown, and re-upped Doug Armstrong! And that's not even the bulk of this show! In what's become an annual tradition, the guys rank the 32 NHL teams on a never-ending scale of misery that goes all the way from Nirvana to Buffalo.

Scott Perunovich tore up Traverse City faster than the Buffalo Sabres tore the C off of Jack Eichel's jersey. And that's saying something! This episode is the latest installment of the 2G1C Prospect Pyramid, our elusive, exclusive, and oh-so effusive look at the Blues' prospects from Tier 1 to Tier 6! Enjoy!

The guys unite to discuss a busy week of NHL news. Offer sheets, the Olympics, and new Winter Classic sweaters! Plus, the piss poor Pacific Division. It's all ahead, and we won't even charge $1,000, even though the patterns are SO complicated!

The guys return to discuss Colton Parayko's massive new 8-year, $52 million contract extension (that carries through 2030!) Then, they'll dive into the Atlantic Division preview. Yuck! The Maple Leafs! Boo.

The NHL hasn't had a lot of news since the guys last recorded, but we'll cover everything we can, before moving into the Division Preview for the world's most boringest division, the Metropolitan.

The guys return to talk about... well, nothing, really. But we tried.

One of the craziest NHL weeks in recent memory is finally in the books, and the Blues have made two major additions to their top six. Now, what's next? Plus, the guys look around the league and breakdown the moves made by every team!

The St. Louis Blues have made two major moves, drafting Zachary Bolduc with the 16th overall pick, after trading Sammy Blais and a second-round pick next season for Pavel Buchnevich. The future of the Blues is much clearer today than yesterday, and the guys gotta talk about it. Plus! The league is burning down around us, and Stephen is a wanted criminal, probably.

The guys are back to prepare for the NHL expansion draft! But NHL GMs aren't prepared, so we're doing their work for them. Protect this guy! Expose that guy! But don't expose yourself, THAT'S illegal! Above all else, protect your future assets. Can't wait for GMs to totally ignore our advice and trade six first round picks to protect Adam Henrique.

Ugh. Vladimir Tarasenko asked for a trade. This sucks. But the guys will try to make the best of it! Who are we kidding, you've listened to this show before! We're distraught, and there's no fixing anything!!

The NHL suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks. This episode contains a discussion of the Blackhawks scandal, which covers topics of sexual assault that might be sensitive for some listeners. The discussion ends at 24:30, for anyone who wants to skip ahead.

The St. Louis Blues will be spending to the cap in 2021, and if nothing else, that guarantees an exciting offseason ahead! The guys break it all down, and talk about the incredible Habitants!

The St. Louis Blues are BORING! They're OLD NEWS! So instead, the guys will talk about the NHL Awards and a St. Louis Foods Tier List!

The boys reunite to discuss the Blues securing the 16th overall draft pick, their highest since taking Jaden Schwartz and Vladimir Tarasenko in 2010. Plus, they'll answer YOUR questions as they dive deep into the mailbag! The Juice is Loose, everybody, so be careful!

The St. Louis Blues are out of the playoffs, and so are the Toronto Maple Leafs! That gives the guys joy as they destroy the city of Toronto in their annual "what the hell is wrong with you people" episode!

The St. Louis Blues may be out of the playoffs, but the 2G1C Podcast are INTO a new studio! The plush carpet may soften their sound, but will it dampen their spicy hot takes about this team? Not on your life, McCloskey!

The St. Louis Blues are done with the 2020-21 season, but there are a lot of questions left to answer. Stephen will answer none of them and instead go on wild and borderline incoherent rants about the 2020 cinematic classic: Money Plane.

The St. Louis Blues are now down 2-0 in the series, a series in which neither Justin Faulk nor Nazem Kadri are likely to play again thanks to the latter's brutal, illegal hit on the former. We'll discuss it all with our special guest host, Alolan Version Ian Peters.

The St. Louis Blues fall 4-1 in the opening game of the first round of the NHL playoffs. What does the loss mean? Stephen breaks it down in this late-night solo podcast.

Jack Eichel wants out of Buffalo, and the whole world just kinda feels sorry for him. Plus: playoffs!

With several much more significant storylines to discuss, the NHL once again lost three days of press cycle because they refuse to take a vicious, malovelent. ape named Tom Wilson off the ice. In this episode, the guys discuss, before moving on to the playoff-bound St. Louis Blues

The St. Louis Blues are good again! It's a miracle! A Taco Bell miracle! The guys discuss whether this winning streak is more Crunchwrap Supreme or Bean Burrito. Plus! The NHL has a new TV partner! Follow the guys on Twitter (https://www.twitter.com/twoguysonecup)
