Saturday Morning Links: Playoff Berth Edition

YES! We did it! We did it! We did it!

Witty commentary and brilliant insight fail me at this point. I'm still bouncing off the walls from the win that put us IN to the playoffs for good!

Onto the links:

Blues News:

  • The Post-Dispatch sums up the game and the kickass run to the playoffs. TSN's write-up (I think they used the AP)
  • Remember when the Blues were pondering dealing Walt? Bernie Miklasz does.
  • They figured it'd be loud on Friday night. They were right. There's also an update on Eller's probable location for next year.
  • Who needs tickets? Tickets here!
  • Keith Tkachuk gets a little Puck Daddy love.
  • If you'd still like a copy of last night's paper, e-mail gametimelinks (at) gmail.com. And always send your good links and random internet deliciousness there, too.

  • Get the GT logo visible from Google Earth. We'll need somebody with the ability or connections to get the logo enlarged to about 10'x10' (at the minimum) along with someone with a rooftop space to donate for display. Let us know what you can contribute in the comments

Nothing quite like waking up and realizing your hard fought battle to get what you want has paid off. Almost like being a kid at Xmas time after lobbying your parents for that Nintendo 64.

I'll volunteer to put the GT logo on my roof...

…if someone will get it blown up to 10×10.

Nice and flat. 24′ × 18′. Just painted white and needing that final touch.

April 10, 2009

A red-letter day for the St. Louis Blues organization.

— The Blues, with a 3-1 win over Columbus, return to the playoffs for the first time in five years.

— Future ‘Note Aaron Palushaj scores his first professional goal in the second period of Peoria’s 2-1 SO loss at Rockford.

— Future ‘Note Alex Pietrangelo is assigned to Peoria following his junior club’s elimination from the playoffs.

Three pretty big milestones in the history of this franchise, I think.

A sheet

Well, if it worked for this kid...

… I guess it could work for us.

Google Street View is another way to advertise

Google drives around in cars with cameras pointed at houses and businesses for their Street View. Be careful if you’re bonking the secretary or wife’s sister, several divorces have come about with the videos being posted on Street Views.

Google Earth does a pass every 6 months I’m told over dense pop areas. Rural areas are once a year I think it was. Checking on that now.

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.
