- One of the Blues longtime, devoted fans has passed away. [Riverfront Times]
- Look, I want to read this article about Alex Steen, but when the second fucking sentence calls Eric Brewer a "skilled player," my mind shut off. Can you make it further than I did? [STLtoday]

"Teemu Selane is going to be 2-to-6 after jaw surgery."
I read that as ‘Teemu Salanne is going to be 12-to-6 after jaw surgery’ which made me think ‘Who the hell is his doctor and what injurious activity can I do to get there?’
I once shot a man just to see him die...then I got distracted and missed it.

Bunch'a whiners in the "Star-Tribune" story comment section...
Perhaps what Oshie did to Ebbett wasn;t the cleanest play he could have made, but these people act like Oshie has a history of being a cement-head.
At least one person in the comments stuck up for Iron Rangers…

I looked but haven't seen a video of this
I want to see the slow-mo replay. I think he may be guilty of a slew foot but I don’t think it was intentional. Not that that makes a difference.
Who knows what will happen with the head office idiots though.

Oh, and where is this "speculation: about Toivonen coming from, anyway?
Sounds more like wishful thinking on Edmonton’s part than anything else.
What’s in it for the Blues to loan Toivonen out because Edmonton’s short on goalie prospects for their AHL affiliate?
If Edmonton’s willing to send a draft pick to the Blues as a “thank you” for letting them borrow Ears for the rest of the season, then fine. But if they think that the Blues — or anyone else — is just going to “loan” them a goalie gratis for the rest of the season, then I want some of whatever they’re smoking up there…

One more comment...
Re: Mike Weaver.
I’m liking this guy more and more every time I see, or hear, him play.
That is all.

He is sooooo underrated

One of the Blues best players this year...
Up there near Steen and McClement, and running ahead of Polak and Colaiacovo.
I once shot a man just to see him die...then I got distracted and missed it.

Finally saw Perron's new visor. He should really go GOLD...

That long time Blues fan
was a personal friend of mine. (not super close, but still knew him well.)
Ron and I were in fantasy hockey league a few years ago. BTW, I barely knew his real name. WE called him “Horse.”
Not sure why, but when I called him Ron, he said, oh no, call me “Horse.”
Before I had season tix, he would often call me (or email) and say, free ticket if you give me a ride. I would almost ALWAYS take him up on the offer. His tix at drink scotch were 1st row upper level behind the goal. That article was correct, he wasn’t very talkitive during the game. (Much like myself, except to yell at the refs or towel boy).
What the article didn’t say: He was buried wearing his Blues jersey and holding Thursday nights ticket. (He was buried Thursday as well).
Just thought you may appreciate more info on the full time Blues fan mentioned, thanks.

Did someone sew that?
If so, that’s about as dedicated as the Milhouse tattoo that was on the 20th Anny special Sunday night. Which, I might ad, I thought was pretty sweet.

I know televised hockey music is some kind of sacrilege to change . . .
but Neil Peart could’ve drummed whatever the fuck he wanted on the NHL on TSN theme and it would’ve turned up aces. Best damn rock drummer of all time, he is.
