Tuesday Links
While reading some of the overboard reactions for deranged Cardinals' fans, I can't help but laugh. Apparently, the team needed to spend, spend, spend and not develop young kids. Yeah, because young guys don't invigorate a franchise and make you dream of multiple championships. The Kid Line laughs as the lemmings cry over blown saves. Anyway, on to the links.
Remember kids, today is election day. Don't forget who to write in.
Blues news
- In case you needed a reminder: Blues vs. Yotes tonight. Here is another preview. Remember, its on KPLR and it starts at 9 p.m. CST.
- Just like Goldielocks, the Blues are trying to find the just-right level of emotion to play with.
- Chris Mason is the 16th best goalie in the league? His beard is easily top-10 right now.
- David Backes is the third star for last week. He must've asked not to be No. 1.
- More from JD and the Blues strategy to beating the Coyotes are in this JR blog.
Hockey news
- Standings.
- Games: Last night. Today. Check the DJ post for what games are important to the Blues. Basically, we want Chicago to win.
- Jacksonian checks in with a great site: Name the 500 goal scorers.
- Things are not going well for Lee Stempniak in Toronto.
- Gary Bettman says the NHL is not close to having a team in Las Vegas. Expect a team there by next season.
- Chris Mason calls Cam Ward a pussy.
- Who will be on Team USA? David Backes should be a no-brainer.
- ESPN ignores the sports it doesn't have rights to. That's why hockey is covered so little. If ESPN showed games, they would show highlights. Example: Arena football.
Other news
- A faithful GT reader might appreciate this story: Create your own donut. Or, as Dooks said: "Donut King should appreciate this, even if it means crossing over to the Dark Side of the pastry treat Force ..."
- This is why I don't lend people my car. Not that I drive a nice car but ...
- Isn't St. Patrick's Day already "Beer Day?"
Video
Blues beat Phoenix on Feb. 28. Let's hope they can do it again.
Please come back.

I feel bad for Dutchie...
I hope that he pulls out of it and has a good career.

He's in trouble with that coach...
Wilson thinks he needs to go to the net more to get his scoring touch back. Correct me if I’m wrong, but he always struck me as more of a Brad Boyes light: one timers and snap shots and wristers from the dots and up.
I don’t remember a ton of gritty Stempniak goals where he was crashing the net.

Yeah, you are right
…Maybe Wilson thinks Stempniak is actually a different guy. Based upon what I’ve seen of the way Toronto has been using him Lee should score 15-22 a season with 30-40 assists. That means he’s pretty much on pace. If you want him to score more give him more PP time. If you dont want to do that because you think you have better options, then why are you bitching at Dutchie?
Hell, he’s tallied a career high in assists this year.
I hope Lee can get the hell out of that shit-hole of an organization/situation.

I have a friend who lives up in Toronto...
… he says that there’s pretty much no way that he gets asked back for next season. That team must be an absolute nightmare to play for. Sometimes I think it’s more enjoyable to play in a normal market, or even a non-market. No one’s foaming at the mouth asking for your head 24/7 – you can just go out there and play and have fun.
Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

He will be fine...
He has Jamal Mayers there to help him shoot on net at least.
Speaking of Mayers, did anyone see that he missed the goalie the other night and scored a goal?
Wow…

DUNKIN?! HELL NO!
But it is quite interesting, I must say. And Dooks is correct about the whole Dark Side thing.
And . . . apology accepted, luvhockey. I totally understand.
