Blues News:

2 more years of BJ jokes for Game Time. [P-D]
Tim Taylor will be directing the development of players. Good? [P-D]

NHL News:

Your complete list of NHL Award winners. People named Tim are awesome, Lidstrom wins again, and plastic looking bitches need to learn how to pronounce French-Canadian names. That Silent Jay for Selke campaign really worked out, too, eh? [Puck Daddy]
The Islanders have a new lease. I don't know shit about this, so having Dominik with a detailed explanation at Lighthouse is pretty damn convenient. [Lighthouse Hockey]
Wysh's last line in this article outlining the headshot rules changes sums up my thoughts: All I want is consistency. [Puck Daddy]
The player voted "Most likely to remind PCS of Brett Hull" will grace the cover of NHL '12. Congratulations to Steven Stamkos. [TSN]
Well, at least Game 7s ratings beat The Bachelorette. [ESPN]

Other Stuff:

File under "Assholes." This will always be the version of St. Louis that outsiders see. Damn shame, too, because they're more and more right everyday. [CBS St. Louis]
File under "Bitch be trippin" [White Whine]

From the respective kitchens of Donut King and HeyCarrieAnn8, it's "My Drunk Kitchen"

Some real ''winners'' in those comments about the Marines getting mugged downtown...

Makes me proud to know I spent four years of my life ready to fight and die to protect those “real” Americans.

Sucks, doesn't it?

But we don’t get to pick and choose which Americans to defend while we’re in. We protect them all, even the ones with repugnant attitudes.

Nah, I was talking about the commenters on the article.

Some of ’em are… less than charitable in the viewpoints towards other people.

Jesus, they traded Richards for Schenn, Simmons, and a 2nd too.

Love that 2nd trade for Philly, as much as I like Richards. Schenn should be a beast.

The first trade is good for Philly as well...

Voracek > Carter, in my humble opinion.

Blues need to get that Ville Leino offer sheet together.

The Flyers subtracted $11M from next year’s cap with the trades, but then turned around and gave more than half of that to Bryzgalov. So they’re now $7.5M under the cap; but they just acquired two RFAs in Voracek and Simmonds who can probably expect salaries in the $2 to $2.5M range each.

carter is very underrated

of course hes gonna be bad in cbj because, well everyone is, but he’s real good. three straight 30 goals years and he had 29 the year before that. plus, hes only 26. voracek has only 39 goals in three seasons. the bjs got the better player. by far. the only thing bad about carter is hes making 5 mil plus a year.

Voracek's year-20 and year-21 NHL seasons...

… are comparable to Carter’s year-21 and year-22 seasons. You need a good bit of projection to claim that Voracek is the better player to have on your roster; but the Prospect Department tends to focus on such projections, so I can’t dismiss it out-of-hand.

That is . . . $5MM+ per year . . . until 2022.

That’s ELEVEN SEASONS.

This may work out for the BeeJays for a few years, but once he climbs over that 27-year-old mark . . . hahaha that contract.
