Anybody else get more than a little nervous during the late third period segment which saw bruising hits by Backes and Oshie? It wasn't the hits themselves that got me nervous, but rather the next shift that saw David Perron streak down the near side boards. All I saw happening was a retaliatory clobbering. Damn, I'm pessimistic.
And hey, even though it's just because they were following the Rangers, HBO might have a couple of frames with the Blues in them. It's all about exposure, people.

- Ilya Bryzgalov and the spinoffs that need to happen. [Puck Daddy]
- Accurate box scores of games that occurred last night. [TSN]

I don't know where Carnie finds these things, but I'm afraid of what I might learn if I ask. Either way, I enjoyed the hell out of this.
