Hockey? Yeah, it's still going on. Blues hockey? Not so much, unless you're in the minors.
BLUES NEWS:
- Tom Stillman took out a full-page ad in Sunday's St. Louis Post-Dispatch to say that he was disappointed in what happened. Good, he should be. (Also, fuck Barstool Sports, which is a collective cesspool of shit.) [SLGT]
- If you're so inclined (and since I don't play video games and don't particularly give a shit, I'm NOT so inclined, really), go vote for T.J. Oshie to go on the cover of NHL 15. Or some shit. [SLGT]
HOCKEY NEWS:
- Marc-Andre Fleury now has two consecutive shutouts and the Rangers are in deep shit after losing 2-0 to the Penguins last night. Oh, and that Sidney Crosby guy finally scored a goal and stuff. [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]
- The Kings have now won six straight, taking down the Ducks 3-1 to take a 2-0 series lead into Staples Center. [NHL.com]
- Two games tonight. Fuck Chicago. Go . . . Bruins? [NHL.com 05/06/14]
- Ryan Lambert believes the Canadiens could be in the Bruins' heads going into Game 3. That and more in his What We Learned piece. (You'll enjoy the Blues tidbit if you hated the Ryan Miller trade, by the way.) [Puck Daddy]
- The AHL approved a plan for the Flames to move their AHL affiliate from Abbotsford, BC to Glens Falls, NY. The next logical step would be for the Canucks to move their affiliate to Abbotsford, but don't look for that to happen TOO soon, as Harrison Mooney explained a few weeks ago. (S/T to CrossCheckRaise) [Pass It To Bulis]
- Tomas Hertl was given a stick signed by Martin Biron, who--if you recall--was on the receiving end of Hertl's awesome (READ: DISRESPECTFUL IF YOU'RE ADAM OATES OR YOU HATE FUN) through-the-legs goal in the early portion of the regular season. [Puck Daddy]
- Seemingly the whole city of Montreal helped find Canadiens goaltender Carey Price's dogs when he mentioned they were missing. [Y! / Eh Game]
- HDTV might be the greatest thing for hockey. Now, if they could only get their collective shit together at ALL times instead of when they feel like it . . . [Sports On Earth]
- Tyler Dellow has the ability to be a raging penis sometimes, but here's an interesting bit about how tough the Broad Street Bullies, the famous 1970's Flyers teams . . . actually WEREN'T. [mc79hockey.com]
OTHER SHIT:
- I think most people already knew Darren Rovell is an insufferable human being, but now I think we know the guy is an incredible fuck-all putz. [Deadspin]
- The famous David sculpture by Michelangelo might finally be in danger of collapsing due to, essentially, weak ankles. [Y! / The Sideshow]
- Liverpool had a chance to solidify their Premier League title hopes, but gave 3 goals in the last 15 minutes and conceded a draw to lowly Crystal Palace. Guess that makes Liverpool's match with my Newcastle United boys a bit more important next week! *CHUGS EVERCLEAR* [Premier League]
- Here's some Liverpool players and fans absolutely disconsolate after the match. These GIFs tell the whole story, really. [SB Nation]
- The most perfect St. Louis and West County judgmental maps you'll ever find. (S/T to Kate) [The St. Louis Egotist]
- Wanna go to Montana? Well here's ten reasons why you shouldn't! (Tongue-in-cheek, of course. Montana rocks, bro.) (S/T again to Kate) [backcountry.com]

He has to be a hockey reporter's nightmarish awesome dream, right? Right.
