Video

I don't know if this video is supposed to be a commentary about how movie trailers are pointless, but all I can say is I'd see this movie.

Good

I’m glad Pelletier wants to earn a chance with the Blues – as opposed to regarding himself as a career AHL’er.

only roots for teams that can’t score goals.

You ain’t kidding.

But they promised they’d change…I know they love me…they’re just misunderstood.

20 year abscence from team with a return. gotta be a record, right? hell his last season with cska he played with 3 epic future blues d-men

alexei gusarov, igor kravchuk, and alexei kasatonov.

he’s going to join a team with epic blues waste pick Konstantin barulin as their goalie, and when konstantin was born, fetisov was in the midst of his original cska moscow run.

is it game time yet? how 'bout now? now?

i suspect the oilers bubble to burst here and the blues to have another vancouver night (not necessarily consisting of a Perron hattie).

well, i’ll be crossing my fingers, wishing for an early christmas present in the form of a steady internet feed. if nothing else, i might just have to blow through some paltry funds for the greater good at a bar…maybe sedgwicks…

I once shot a man just to see him die...then I got distracted and missed it.

I'm a little Offended

I live in Syracuse (ok 10 minutes outside) and the Crunch are not that bad. They are far from great but blame that on the BlueJackets pissing away every good prospect they have (not complaining this time if it ends up benfiting the Blues) or just calling them up to the NHL since they didn’t have any skill in Columbus. The worst thing you can say about the Crunch is that they are still stuck with the name Nestle made them take after banrolling the team for 1 year and then backing out.

The term "in my humble opinion", which they think adds weight to their statements rather than indicating , in reality, "these are the mean little views of someone with the social grace of duckweed"
