Blues News:

• Before this year began, I dreaded seeing Columbus on the schedule. Games were horribly uneventful even with the couple of times Rick nASH got blown up by Osh. A fiasco centered around somebody getting pissed off at a pre-game soccer gathering? Yawn. But now, the Blues have performed a coup bringing Hitch over and even rescued Kris Russell from the basement of the league. I've gone from "disaffected" to the more enthusiastic side of "meh." [Post- Dispatch]
• Players returning from injuries always come in threes. [Post-Dispatch]

Hockey News:

• If Ken Holland wants it, I hate it. Just say no to "3 on 3 OT." There's still not one thing wrong with ending a regular season game in a tie. [Puck Daddy]
• Japers' Rink has the video on Mike Green's 3 game suspension. [Japers Rink]
• Erik Cole is out the equivalent of 5,000 Jack in the Box tacos after a slew foot. [TSN]
• NHL Standings are a lot more fun to look at with the Blues occupying the #1 spot. [TSN]

Other Stuff:

• I imagine the equivalent that we all could understand would be a jersey that simply said "Hockey" on it. [Huffington Post]
• It's stupid and baseless, but shit like this still makes me laugh. [Smosh]
• This list of people who are hard to kill is very flawed. Jack Bauer died twice and he's still alive. [Cracked]

It's part foreshadowing in terms of players moving to different teams, but this still completely captures the essence of the Jackets.
