Hope they are preaching a lot of shots from anywhere/everywhere. I know Hutton shutout the Pens, but they still have terrible Sv% numbers. Weird feeling, but for some reason I think there's a chance we could run them out of the building.

PA is at the X for his show today, think I remember hearing that he will have Yeo on? I'd be interested to hear what he says. If anybody listens, post the cliff notes!

Probably nothing too controversial. I'm sure Yeo's part of the interview will be swimming with the typical cliches of a coach/player returning to coach/play against their former team.

Who knows, though. Yeo was pretty open about things in his Q&A with Russo shortly after he got canned last year.

Yeo has landed on his feet, and will keep it classy, which is the smart thing to do.

Oh yeah, I would expect nothing less. He's a classy guy. I'd be curious to hear his thoughts on the differences between STL and Minnesota, though.

Pants.
I would just like the game to result in the Blues' players' children only ever picking up figure skates from now on. I don't think that's too much to ask.

No Brodziak for STL, he got put on IR.

Really not excited for this game. Chance of the players checking out with vacation days on their minds.

Blues are not very good. Their fans ripped Wild earlier his year and are as cocky as they get. Wild have more talent at every level and are much better coached. Need a W

They have Tarasenko and that's it.

No Blues fans still think the wild are lucky and all the goals the wild have scored this year have been lucky.

That said they are pretty decent team just bad goaltending besides Hutton lately.

I've been surprised by the Blues this year. They just seem like a different team.

In years past when the Wild played the Blues I was pretty nervous, but they don't really scare me as a team, anymore.

However, they do have Tarasenko, who I think has the same ability as Kane to just put the team on his back and lead them to a W.

Lost their identity when they lost Backes. He was the personification of the Blues. Now they just don't know what they are.

Plus their goaltending has been terri-bad

Oshie, too.

He's been key for Washington's success.

Maybe even trying to watch this one live. It's been awhile. But let's see..

Last minute plane tickets are expensive.

I still think the Blues are a good team, and will get it together. Anyone saying that they are just Tarasenko needs to get their eyes fixed. Pietrangelo and Parayko are real good. Shattenkirk is an offensive machine. JayBo is still good.

They've got a bunch of players who know how to play, and can beat any team if their goalie can stop the puck.

And now I found out they've grounded the Concordes! :rant:

coolest plane ever!

Course, the only place you could fly into would be the Air Force base in NoDak, but we could hook you up with a Turbo prop helicopter from there, and you could land on the Capitol grounds, then get a limo to the EX.
