Oh Monday, how I loathe thee. At least it's a new month. January is gone, long live February. I'm rambling. Let's do this.
Blues news
- Davis Payne took a long, interesting road to the NHL — a great read. [St. Louis Post-Dispatch]
- Speaking of Payne, his first impression with Larry Pleau left a good mark. Nice to know if I want a job with the Blues, all I gotta do is ask. [Belleville News-Democrat]
