Easy Button......

CLASSIC!!!! Someone should sit next to the Blues bench with one and see if anyone has the balls to hit it after a goal….or say a Cam Smash……

And good to see no one was mauled by a golfcart this year at the golf outing……Were all looking at YOU EJ……….

I still maintain Vladimir Konstantinov got what he deserved...If you can't handle that then kiss my ass......

I should snag that for the Jr. Blues games in Springfield

God knows they need the incentive to score many goals…

I am currently a senior at De Smet and on our run to win the State Championship last year we would throw that up after every goal. It is currently on display in our trophy case with all the players signatures.

Good to have it in the links as "St. Louis High School", though...

… that should keep the dreaded Cusumanos of the world at bay.

left out a word

it should say St. Louis High School hockey. Fixing now.

St. Louis Game Time Fact: Morning links are part of a well-balanced meal.

SBNSTL Writing about the Blues in more than one line is tough.

fuck desmet

I know one thing, you tap that button when im on the ice and the next guy im smearing into the glass is the clownshoes. Like wavin a red flag in front of a bull. Same as taunting a ptcher after a homer. Pretty stupid and classless

I'm inclined to agree with Spec here...

One the one hand, it’s kinda funny, but on the other hand, it’s kinda shitty, too.

If I were the Lindbergh goalie, I’d have gone to meet that jackass on his way to hit the “Easy” button.

I’ll show you “easy,” scheissevogel…

Yeah, I really didn't want to plug two AFers in there...

… but the comic universes are startlingly free of Canadians. And no offense to Boyes and Perron, but neither one of ’em gets to be Wolverine.

I can't see either of 'em as Sasquatch, either...

Cam Smash has the size and attitude for...

…~~Logan~~ James goddamn Howlett. But he’s an American.

“Logan” is actually Sabretooth’s last name.

I think we're over looking something here.

Never in my life did I think I’d see an FDR reference on a hockey site. Thats awesome!!

ok the longest leap i can do

on that line name is archdeacon

why? david backes and brad boyes middle names are anthony keith which is tony gwinn’s name. couldnt find perron’s middle name, so if we go the david gwynn(e) route we get london’s archdeacon

If we have Oshie, Dagostini, Berglund together im already calling the Ol’ Dirty Bastard line. If we went David, Brad, David it could be the dead by dawn line. It would probably be bad luck to call it the B.B. Ping line.

He raged at the world, at his family, at his life. But mostly he just raged.
Just because Jay McClement is the best defensive forward in the NHL doesn't mean he should win the Selke.

Why can’t Boyes first name start with a T damnit? I want to call them the DDT line.

All preseason long, I’ve been calling the Boyes, Backes and Perron line the “DDB” line as an homage to Diamond Dallas Page, maybe they’ll adopt his diamondcutter sign too.
