updates will no longer be in game-to-game form at all. Simply because I have a wife and two kids and work every day now instead of pulling 40 hours in 2 days and having 5 off every week.
So...
Updates will be at the 20-game marker, the 41 game marker, the trade deadline, the end of the regular season, a playoff preview for each round, and in the playoffs I will do game-to-game updates much like the latest ones you've seen so far...
In addition, there will be updates when signifigant things such as injuries, trades, or other interesting things pertaining to the Blues or NHL occur.
Basically...
this will be a running journal of my chise with scheduled updates plus features on interesting occurances throughout the chise. For instance, if I get drubbed by the Sharks again by a 10-2 score, I will probably post an update as a game recap...
The change in style will kill some of the monotony that occurs when doing a game-to-game franchise. I mean, really...when I'm in season 3 of this chise, am I really gonna want to look back and see who won a meaningless game in November??? No.
So...from now on, only updates at regularly scheduled check points and key injuries and the like.[Reply]

Sounds good, OBG. Your new approach is the only way I could ever do a dynasty nowadays. Interested to see what, if anything, you do as the trade deadline approaches...
In an odd twist of luck, the struggling Brad Boyes who had just 10 goals through the first 41 games, tallied a hat trick tonight before taking a hit from Scott Niedermeyer of Anaheim that will keep him sidelined for approximately one week.
The Blues won the game 4-2, despite Anaheim outshooting the Blues 26-18.
Ryan Getslaf scored his 20th goal of the season while Teemu Selanne would score his 21st in the defeat.
Tough luck on losing Boyes, hope Eller works out for you.

Been following your dynasty for quite sometime. Really enjoyable! My brother moved to Missouri about a year ago and so I definetly keep an eye on the Blues now. Your dynasty has helped me get to know the players before the actual NHL season started. Thanks and keep it up! Go Blues!

Thats awesome man...glad to hear it. Thanks for following. :-)
Speaking of Bure, I did a Penguins chise with the Return of The Russian Rocket somewhere on here...
Bure is probably my all-time favorite player.

Blues + Eller=Unstoppable
The Blues Forward picked in the 1st round, 13th overall, of the 2007 draft has impressive debut on Blues third line.
