A Night At The Theater

I swear to God, listening to the Blues these days is a little like going to a Broadway play for a Wednesday matinee.

Attention Ladies and Gentlemen, this afternoon the part of the St. Louis Blues will be played by the Peoria Rivermen.

Tonight we have Weaver, Junland, Winchester, Strachan, Bishop and Stasny playing "starring" roles against the Washington Caipitals.

Maybe Semin and Ovechkin will forget there is a game tonight.

Crap...no such luck.

UPDATE:

Well, that wasn't quite the gang enema I was expecting. It is amazing what being so shitty other teams won't "get up" to play you can do to even things out a bit. Oh, the Blues lost, of course, but 4-2 is acceptable really. Hell, we even outshot the Caps. (Will wonders ever cease?)

Still, I expect the Blues to get absolutely hammered by the Wild on Saturday. Yes, the Wild are playing terrible hockey right now, but they got that Gaborik guy back and I have a feeling they will be letting go of some pent up aggression at the Blues expense.

If Murray doesn't have Cam in the lineup on Saturday he should be fired outright.
