The Blues fired Andy Murray as head coach on January 2, 2010, after a below expectation record (17–17–6, 40 points), sitting in 12th place in the Western Conference. Especially galling were the frequent blown leads after two periods, and with the poorest home record (6–13–3, including one win in Sweden) in the NHL. Davis Payne was named the Blues' interim head coach, the 23rd head coach in the Blues' history. Payne was previously head coach of the Blues' top minor league affiliate, the Peoria Rivermen of the American Hockey League (AHL).|STL|home Davis Payne Named Interim Head CoachJuly 2026 medicmedic After the season, Payne was named as Head Coach, removing the interim tag.Payne Remains Blues' Head Coach On January 18, 2010, the Blues hired goaltending consultant Tyler Love.Tyler Love Hired as Blues' Goalie Consultant Keith Tkachuk announced his retirement from professional hockey on April 7, 2010, three days before the final game of the season, April 10, which he declined to play.Tkachuk to Retire at End of Season: Press conference with Tkachuk set for Apr. 13 and open to the public (Apr. 7) The Blues saluted him in a tribute after the last home game, his final game ever in the NHL on April 9.Blues Salute Tkachuk After Friday's Game: Team also presented jerseys to randomly selected fans at ice level (Apr. 9) The Blues missed the playoffs for the first time since the 2007–08 season Preseason Game log 2009 pre-season game log: 5–1–1 (home: 2–1–0; road: 3–0–1) # Date Visitor Score Home OT Decision Record Recap 1 September 15 Minnesota Wild 1–3 St. Louis Blues Mason 1–0–0 2 September 18 Colorado Avalanche 2–6 St. Louis Blues Conklin 2–0–0 3 September 19 Dallas Stars 4–2 St. Louis Blues Mason 2–1–0 4 September 20 St. Louis Blues 1–2 Colorado Avalanche Conklin 2–1–1 5 September 24 St. Louis Blues 4–1 Minnesota Wild Conklin 3–1–1 6 September 26 St. Louis Blues 5–0 Dallas Stars Mason 4–1–1 7 September 29 (in Linköping, Sweden) St. Louis Blues 6–0 Linköpings HC (Sweden) Mason 5–1–1 Regular season Despite being the most penalized team in the League with 342 power-play opportunities against, the Blues had the best penalty-kill percentage, at 86.84%.https://www.hockey-reference.com/leagues/NHL_2010.html 2009-10 NHL Summary Divisional standings STL Conference standings STL Game log Green background indicates win (2 points).
