Monday Links

by averagejoe on Mar 30, 2009 6:00 AM CDT

I'm going to have to apologize to everyone up front. I have been a traveling man -- Hannibal to Chicago and to my parents home in the St. Louis-area. I wound up nowhere near WiFi or even high speed. I'm on my dialup -- yep that still exists. So the links are gonna suck.. I'll make up for it later. Special hat tip to my good buddy Nate for helping me find links.

Blues news

The playoff are in the playoff picture after beating the Jackets twice in two days. Awesome.
Patrik Berglund had a nice game.
T.J. "King of St. Louis" Oshie is winning over St. Louis and pissing off the league. Good.
Oshie might need to hire a body guard -- man crushes everywhere.
Puck Daddy weighs in on the Blues. Shockingly, he also loves Oshie.

Hockey news

Here are the standings. Soak these in.
Yesterday's results ... Fuck Detroit.
Today's games. Looks like we can not scoreboard watch for tonight. You can head to Fear the Fin to pull for the Sharks in you'd like.
This column wouldn't load, but I thought you guys would like to read a fourth NHL story. I honestly have no idea what it says, but I got the link.

News

Sorry, bald guys.
Sorry, smokers.
Sorry, stupid criminal.

Video

Nice game Rick Nash, too bad you're ass just got sacked by T.J. Oshie.

That will do it for today. Join Game Time later for some more goodness and please come back tomorrow where I will have high speed WiFi and be able to load more than one page at a time!

I read every single comment at Puckdaddy

It’s nice to see people from around the league having the Oshie crush.
I love seeing the cutoff line on the playoff standings BELOW the Blues.

After forking over the money for NHL GameCenter

I got the Columbus broadcasts both Saturday and Sunday (for whatever reason… I got the Blues telecast for the Vancouver game.) YEESH!! Whine, cry, gripe and moan about those “dirty” Blues. Perron shoved a Jacket out of the way with his hands, and the announcers were claiming “crosscheck!” (Dudes, have you watched your own Mike Commodore hack and whack in front of the net?)

Perron is six-foot, 180; Oshie is listed at 5-11, 170 according to the Blues’ official roster… McFilthy and McNasty they ain’t!

At Chicago and at Detroit Wednesday/Thursday… then two “should-wins” at Dallas and at Phoenix. A home game against Columbus, then to Colorado… if we get the six points we should get , that gets us to 89…. three points against Chicago/Detroit/Columbus gets us to 92… think that’ll be enough?

No Problems....

…any links that show the Blues in the playoffs are, by definition, good links.

I have but one request...

Can someone make that 2nd Oshie hit on Nash into a “Fail” gif?

That would be fucking fantastic, thanks.

Yeah, there were horses, and a man on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident.

I know

I love how Nash’s stick goes flying around in a full circle and then how he tries to get his left skate down on the ice and it bounces off hahaha. Fail indeed.

Not afraid to nitpick

And it conclusively proves it was not “a bit of a crosscheck,” as the Columbus “and I don’t get this … is there gonna be a penalty here or..?” announcers suggested.

Man, Nash is a star. But between his two Oshie encounters and the trip in front of Mason, he looked hilariously calf-like on his skates this weekend.
