BLUES NEWS:

  • Paul Stastny (I swear I'll learn to spell his name without google)  is still trying to find his glass slipper line. The line shuffling has been tough on him and hopefully soon he'll find his spot. Most recently he's been on a line with Jori Lehtera and Vladimir Tarasenko during practice. Might be a good place for him until Jaden Schwartz returns. [In the Slot / Lou Korac]
