Anyone (us included) who was looking forward to seeing the human waterbug that is Andy McDonald back in the Blues' lineup this week may have to suffer some more disappointment.
No worries, we're Blues fans, we drink disappointment like it's an elixir.
McDonald himself admitted to Jeremy Rutherford of the Post-Dispatch that the ankle wasn't feeling 100% as he tried it out in practices recently and team president John Davidson seemed to indicate that it might not be until after the All-Star break before McDonald is back.
"If they tell me (Jan.) 18 or whatever, then we'll look at that. But my feeling would be the first game after the All-Star break. I don't want a long-term injury with him. This kid is a valuable player. We can't mess with him."
You know, for our money, no spoken phrase tells us that someone is frustrated like the words, "or whatever."
We read you, JD. Loud and clear. We'll go ahead and pretend like having Brad Winchester on the power play is just fine for now. Or whatever.

how many weeks has this been? I’ve lost track…when you take it in the nads time after time after time, the 58th kick to the nuts is about the same as the 82nd.

He does the morning skate with an umbrella
ala Micheal Jackson trial-entrance style. Just to keep the halogen lights from hurting his frail skin.
