Wednesday Morning Links

by averagejoe on Mar 4, 2009 6:00 AM CST

I feel like George Michael. That game was not pretty. Once again, the Wings show that this "rivalry" doesn't exist -- the Red Wings are the better team right now and the Blues are still at the kids' table. Ugh. On to the links.

Blues news

So that happened. Here's the account from the AP. Skunk is such a nice verb in a hedline.
Marian Hossa was taken off the ice on a stretcher last night. I don't care how much you hate the Wings, it was a scary moment. The hit, however, looked clean. Hossa seems to be OK, which is good news.
Le's put last night's contest behind us ... and focus on today. It's Trade Deadline Day! The latest on Tkachuk from the Post is no deal.
Bernie Miklasz talks hockey. He says offense is the problem, not a lack of Pronger on defense.
Eric Johnson news: Dude's been working out. (Bottom note in each post).
Remember that big trade with the Leafs? Blues won.
An old Blue is staying on at Michigan which makes a future Blue happy.

Hockey news

Last night's action, tonight's action. Current standings.
25 Trades that make sense.
Players, like former Blue Craig Conroy, aren't big fans of the deadline.
Sean Avery is back with the Rangers
Everyone has heard all the rumors. Instead I'll offer up places to surf while you should be working. Puck Daddy, TSN, St. Louis Game Time.

Other news

When you want a McNugget, damnit you need a McNugget.
Here's a tip Chicago Police, male officers should at least be old enough to shave.

Video

Last night sucked, but at least this didn't happen.

That's it for today, come back later for all the deadline coverage you can handle. Rememer, if you have links you want to share with the rest of the class, send them to gametimelinks (at) gmail.com.

Unless something new is started, I’ll treat this as the Trade Deadline Gathering (TDG, get it? Like a GDT, but different).

Biggest news so far, the CBJ send a Second-Round pick and G Pascal Leclaire to OTT for Antoine Vermette.

So long, Monkey Boy

by the way

i’m parked on http://www.tsn.ca/tradecentre/ for web coverage, and they have live streaming video from TSN studios here

I had to d-load and install an MS application for the streaming video, but it’s all good since.

Sooooooo.....

Fat Bernie (as opposed to our color comentator) thinks that offense is the problem. Gee when you lose 5-nil? Possibly….nice to see he put down the free food long enough to give us that brilliant insight

From the "25 trades"

I’d pop a tent if we were able to move McKee’s 4mil salary/cap hit for next year off the books.

Not afraid to nitpick

re: McNugget article

“customer satisfaction is our number one priority”
seriously, no one told that particular manager this.
ever heard the phrase “the customer is always right”?
they cannot withhold your money and force you to order something else.
