Who's the best hockey guy in the St. Louis media?

Who the hell are half these people?

both just plain suck

coverage int eh medias?

Long ago…..before the strike…..I was a Black Coat at the DrinkScotch….You all know who they are……

Blue Coats are the ticket takers and the Black Coats were theguys who threw you out if you got unruly….

Well unknown to some is that us Black Coats were also stationed in other areas of the building. Benches Dressing rooms, Locker rooms, and Press Box to name a few. On more than one occasion I would get the Press/Express Elevator. This was the large Elevator in the back of the house that ran straight from the Ice level to The Press box before and during the game. My time there I met quite a few players and reporters. One guy who always stood out was Karraker. He would stop and talk all the time and he was always interested in what the fan thought of what the team was doing. And to top it off, the guy remembered people. I also bumped into him at a few ballgames and he would still remember me and stop and talk about whatever sport the conversation led to. Hes not to opinionated and he was always appreciative of what the fans had to say…..

I have to say I miss that job a bit….The 2 biggest highlights I had working there was working the Colorado bench and sitting next to Patrick Roy for a whole game just shooting the shit and working Sir Paul McCartneys dressing room and just getting the chance to talk to him…….Other concerts were fun and I met quite a few Blues players in my time there too…….But the strike made the building just waaaaaaay too boring to stay on for another season….

Angela, JR, Panger, Chase. My Final Four.

If you voted for him, you are a jerk off. That guy CLEARLY has no idea about hockey.

Chaser, JR, Csolak and Sanders… with Angella getting honorable mention as the hottest contestant in the group (although if Katie Felts was in the mix, she’d give Angella a run for her money there).

Personally, I think Kerber needs to be not in there, just because as the pimary play-by-play guy, he’s clearly the most knowledgeable and connected guy in the media vis-a-vis the Blues, and this has an unfair advantage.

How in the hell did Cusumano,Gordon, Hadley, and O’Neill get in there? If the hockey knowledge of the four of ‘em together was converted into gasoline, it couldn’t power an ant’s Harley around the inside of a Cheerio…

but I hear they’re already planning JR’S parade route

Overall I’m not sure.
I really like George’s articles.
They are so in depth I never fail to learn a lot about an individual player.

im the media, damnit.

this should be fun. i hate talk radio, so those people are out. anyone who is paid by the team is out in my book, so that really leaves jr and norm. i know norm read the links, so hes got a slight lead.

I doubt you have to worry about Kermit the Shill looking to the right of the screen. I’m sure he’s too big and important an “insider” to bother with a little fan-run blog such as we have here (which, I would venture, to say has as many knowledgeable readers as his condescending Twits Tweets have).

I’d have to have some kind of clue as to who these people are or what they do.

(Well, I know who some of them are, but I know they say about two words about The Note and then their brains explode.)

Brian Stull is well rounded. And he has a radio show that covered nothing rassling. Billed himself as the last Hulkamanaic.

Most of the other guys cover/talk about hockey because it’s a sport…Jeremy and Norm cover/talk about hockey because it’s hockey.

You’ll be able to know at least a little something about each one. But if you don’t live in the St. Louis area or at least turn on sports radio a couple times a week then a few of these folks (Tom Casey, Scott Warman, Kevin Wheeler) might not be too familiar.

Just think of them as the Siena and Mt. St. Mary’s of the NCAA tournament to Rutherford’s Duke and Kerber’s Kentucky standing.

This should be fun. And brutal. Twas Gallagher’s idea.

his voice is golden on the radio.

That is all.
