Two things that blow: San Jose and Todd Bertuzzi.

Don't knock out a Blues player for the season because your team might catch the suck out of karma. You want to concuss David Perron, Joe Thornton? Well, here, have some of our local flavor: squandering big leads.

Blues News

  • Ty Conklin's stats have been pretty good at the World Championships in his career. He's even better against those pesky Czechs. [Tucson Citizen]

  • The Coyotes will be staying next season. Shower me with your indifference. [Puck Daddy]
  • The Victoria Salmon Kings, one of the coolest teams ever, is disbanding and has officially withdrawn from the ECHL. Sad day. [Naples News]

  • Speaking of Czechs, could Jaromir Jagr make a Pittsburgh return? Don't rule The Mullet out. [MSNBC]

  • Here's your TV schedule for the Conference Finals, which begin this Saturday. [LA Times]
  • Those French-Canadian cheesedicks will be holding a summit to improve the hockey scene in Quebec. Apparently, there aren't enough Quebec born players in the NHL (not that anybody cared). [Montreal Gazette]

Other Stuff

  • The Super Mario Birthday Party is something you've always wanted to do. Don't lie. [Behemoth]
  • Science says, "lol religion." [Buzzfeed]

Wednesday Video

I was prepared to play a video that mocked Detroit, but they won. So, I'll keep mocking the most recent team to be eliminated: Nashville. Video thanks to Anastasia L.
