Blues Pre-Game Inspirational Speeches

We've asked a few folks to come in and give the St. Louis Blues some inspiration as the season winds down. And as a special treat, we'll let you inside the dressing room to hear the words for yourself. Before tonight's game against the Chicago Blackhawks, we've arranged for...a college sudent? I'm sure he's an honor roll student or president of student senate or something. Please welcome, John "Bluto" Blutarsky.

Bluto_medium

"Thanks, I needed that."

(Bluto walks into Blues dressing room, sees players moping about before the game, listless.)

Bluto: What's this lying around shit?

Jay McClement: Well what the hell are we supposed to do?

Andy McDonald: The season's over, man. We're back in ninth place.

Bluto: What? Over? Did you say over? NOTHING is over until we decide it is. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! Was it over when Rick Johnstone screwed up his knee playing golf?

Oshie: Germans? Rick Johnstone?

Backes: Forget it, he's rolling.

Bluto: It ain't over now! Cause when the going gets tough....The tough get going! Who's with me, Blues? Let's go! Ahhhhhhhhhh!

(Bluto runs out of the dressing room yelling. No one follows.)

Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Blues I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst! "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Bluto, we might miss the playoffs." You're facing the Chicago Blackhawks! And they suck! Have you seen the choke job they're pulling at the end of the season? Those kids are wetting their pants! You could take seventh place and show the entire league you're for real. Well, just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this! Kane, he's a dead man! Toews, dead! Campbell-

Oshie: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really physical and violent solution.

Bluto: And we're just the guys to do it. I have just one thing to you. Fuck. Chicago.

(Oshie and Backes stand up.)

Backes: Let's do it!

(Team rises, hurries out to the ice.)

Bluto: Let's Go Blues! Let's Go Blues! Let's Go Blues!

did I do this wrong?

TJ Oshie: Before we go any further, there’s something I have to tell you. I lied to you. I’ve never done this before.
David Perron: You’ve never played in the post-season before?
TJ Oshie: No. No, I mean, I’ve never done what I think we’re gonna do. I sort of did once, but i was…
David Perron: That’s okay, Teej. Neither have I. And besides, I lied to you, too.
TJ Oshie: Oh, yeah? What about?
David Perron: I’m only 13.

Memorable stuff. Thank you.

Hmmm....

…you went with Animal House…. I went with The Communist Manifesto.

This means something.

That you’re educated and I’m wondering when I can open my first beer?

Little known fact…Animal House is loosely based on The Communist Manifesto.

Another little known fact…Belushi got that sweatshirt from a friend in Carbondale.

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

Lets......DOOOOOOOO ITTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!

I think you need to go watch your Animal House DVD again, Brad…there was some more inspirational gold to be panned from that scene. “Havlat…DEAD! Toews…DEAD! BIFFOOGLEANNE….” “DEAD! Bluto’s right…”

Still…this shit is free, so I’m not complaining. Also, would Walt be Flounder? What with the fat and all?

You say 'Tomato', I say 'FUCK DETROIT', so lets call the season off

Destroy,,main, no prisoners

The time is ripe to bitch slap the Blackhawks in front of their homies. Punk their azz and send them down the road with our bootprint on their hip pocket.

I actually feel sorry for them paste eaters from Chicago, they’re about to run headlong into a buzzsaw.

Blues in a rout 6-2.

Oshie lays out Kane and a peanut vendor on the same hit.

Frenchie starts a line brawl by blowing kisses to Huet in the crease.

Keystone Lake Zamboni falls through thin ice


A Zamboni took a dip in North America's largest groomed skating pond at Keystone Resort tonight.
A driver was grooming the lake at about 6:15 p.m., when the ice cracked and the 7,000-pound machine began to sink at about 6:15 p.m. As a precaution, skaters were cleared from another area of the 5-acre pond, resort spokesman Ryan Whaley said. The driver was not injured.
There was no word immediately on how soon the rink might re-open, but staff will examine the ice and remove the Zamboni Wednesday, Whaley said.
"They'll take it out and we'll see how it is," Whaley said of the machine and the safety of the ice around the crater.
With a lake that large, other areas could reopen immediately, he said.

Once it dries out, the machine is likely salvageable, he said.
Kenneth Waesche snapped a photo of the sunken ice machine when he stopped by Lakeside Village for a pickup game of hockey. His wife planned to do some skating.
Waesche said that the "thin ice" sign in the foreground of the photo was some distance away from where the Zamboni went in.
The lake is typically open from Dec. 18 to March. 28 depending on the weather, from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
