I am not a Brewer hater, but I was shocked that we wound up with Captain Roboto over Jackman to begin with. If you want a solid blueliner who is a team guy, who better than Jackman?

1jackman=much much better leader then brewer.brewer still as captain just blows my mind.

2.our lockerroom is starting to get a little chaotic and frustrated.

3.fire murray

4fuck detroit

from the section i sit which is no where near the locker room, and while everyone seems invigarated by jacks words, I am trouble.

what the old guys were NOT practicing hard?!?

what murray things disciple from players is more effective that what he can do?

what players need to sit and even they know it?

what jacks didnt get forced by murray to go back out into the media and tell them none of this is andy’’s fault like KT had too?

p.s. if you were getting a head smacking, would you rather be head smacked by robo or jacks?

well i cant speak for all of us but im still pretty pissed off considering this all went down on friday.. and a loss again tomorrow and im not sure what im gonna do..

I have hopes. I have hopes that the loss to Edmonton will turn the team around in the same way the win over Boston did last season.

It’s just a feeling – and yes, I’ve been told I’m WAY too optimistic…but you never know.

Captain? Captain. Fucking print it.

im putting together a autographed puck collection of 09/10 players that have suited up for the blues this year for my son as a keepsake, the only puck i havent been able to find is a Jonas Junland on a blues puck.

does anyone know how to obtain one or where one can be found in st louis(will be in town this weekend)

I hear you’re honouring Brett Hull tomorrow.

… there was my longtime hope that Jackman would be the one to wear the “C.”

Judging from memory, what I’ve seen in the feeds the last two years and seen in person on a few sweet, sweet occasions, I wonder if Captain Jackman wouldn’t be booed and criticized almost as much as Brewer.

Our defensive D-men just haven’t gotten a fair shake from fans since Rob Ramage and Harold Snepsts. Rick Zombo. Murray Baron. Chris Pronger (until Al MacInnis turned him into a beast), Bryce Salvador (to some extent).

Make Jackman captain. Put the “A” on Backes. Make Sydor an assistant coach.

but i think trading Kariya and Tkachuk would be a good decision

Kariya wouldnt bring much to the table trade-wise due to his injuries so maybe not him

Tkachuk had a tiff a few days ago too with Murray, so “Big Walt” needs to stop fucking around, anyone remember the weight he threw on before last season?? And his supposed “role change” basically is just going from a power forward to being a grinder without any resemblance of creativity or imagination with the puck. He used to come out of nowhere with huge hits, now he just sits on the bench with his mouth open, looking like a moron.

Weaver is a great guy and i like him a lot, but in his career he has never been able to put up points. We have enough defensive specialists, and offensive specialists waiting to come up in the minors. with such scoring troubles, along with one of the lowest goals allowed total, why would it be necessary for him to be around?

Winchester has done shit all season, I like his edge and tenacity, but sometimes thats not appropriate, especially for a team transitioning from one in which he would fit well, to a team of developing offensive players. We have enough big bodies who can do their thing, why keep around someone who cant hit the net or elude an official when taking exception?

Crombeen needs to do what he has been doing, no qualms here
Steen seems to be hitting his stride, we cant trade him due to his chronic condition of mediocrity, I like his play and think he will blossom, once he is taken off our 3rd line. how can you throw up points playing next to Cam and Winchester, its tough, ask Jordan Staal, Kyle Wellwood etc.

this is too long so ill wrap it up
“C” – Barret Jackman
“A” – Silent Jay
“A” – Andy McDonald/Chris Mason -→ if these players start producing to their potential: Backes, Kariya

I like Mason at the end because it would illuminate that the performances of players other than Jacks and Silent Jay are garbage. Boyes is not included on this list because I dont think he would speak to a teammate unless spoken to. We should call him Silent Brad or Boyes Silent (boy is silent, as in “that boy aint right peggy”)

but we must all realize our frustrations result in the desire for immediate gratification. We have been putting together a stretch of better hockey, albeit lucky SO wins. Patience is key, you dont want to tamper with the situation too much, these guys are all professionals who get paid to do what they do, they will figure it out. Sorry for the long post I just watched the replay of the game . . .
