Blues go MIA against Wild!

Right off the bat it looked like Manny was struggling a bit in net during the pre game warm up. Thank God he only faced 30 shots and not the usual 35+. But that was not our problem last night at Scottrade. The crowd was medium-smallish but very enthusiastic so for a Tuesday night it […]

The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly.

Clint Eastwood and the Devils???? This is the best way to describe the Devils right now. Yes I know, many teams would kill to be 30-15-6….and 2nd in their conference but not to a Devils fan…I admit I expect better at this point. Call it what you will but I believe the Devils are capable […]

TALES FROM BLUELAND: PLAYOFFS OR BUST!

Well we are two games in to the 2nd half of the season, and it looks to be a good one. Things are starting to click, not counting that last minute loss to Philly yesterday. Trade talks are heating up for all teams, and all signs point to the Stanley Cup Playoffs making there way […]

R.I.P. Gump

I know alot of you were born after 1970, but even though his career record did not show it, he was a GREAT playoff goalie.Hall of Fame goalie Gump Worsley, who didn’t wear a mask until the last season of his 21-year career, died Saturday.He was 77.Worsley began his NHL career in 1952-52, winning the […]

Simply the best……

Season For The Ages?? When all is done with his career, I will be able to say I watched one of the greatest of all time lace them up and play the game. His name is Martin Brodeur and his game is still evolving, which is scary for every NHL player that is not a […]

Dispatches From The Edge Of Flyerdom: don’t make me puke!

I was going to puke. I mean it; my gut tensed, my mouth got all watery, and I was about to wretch.But then, luckily, for better or worse, my cat puked… loud, rhythmic, and really fucking gross. And I realized; Callahan and I have a lot in common: we both panic vomit… well, sorta’, see […]

Keepin’ the Faith

It is so mind blowing to me that the NHL season is half way over and done with. Sad to think that within the next couple of months, it’s out with hockey and in with baseball yet again like it is every year, but currently the hot, sizzling question hovering above the heads of many […]

Bruins At The Break

By: Mike Dunsheewww.mikedunshee.commdunsh@gmail.com The NHL finished the league all-star festivities Wednesday night with the West prevailing 12-9 and Daniel Briere of the Buffalo Sabres taking the MVP honors after a 5 point evening. Zdeno Chara, the Bruins lone representative had a good couple of days; Tuesday he won the hardest shot contest and Wednesday followed […]

It’s the Blues Bandwaggon! Come on jump on!

More Fans than you can shake a hockey stick at! Now. Today at church I had a few folks come up to me and say “Hey I’m a Blues fan…again!” Just to give me trouble. Ok, I could and should have said I told you so, but I didn’t. I just want everyone to pack […]

2007 All-Star game thoughts

First off I have to say, what the heck was up with that rendition of Oh Canada? Blech, bring back Roseanne Barr for crying out loud! The Game: High scoring, you bet (I believe that was the 3rd highest scoring all-star game ever). You know, I’ve listened to a lot of people malign the all-star […]

Who Doesn’t Love Gaborik?

Who doesn’t love Marian Gaborik? He owns the Wild’s franchise records for career goals (145), assists (144), therefore points (you do the math*), and surprisingly PIM (204). He scored the first goal, first power play goal, and first hat trick in Minnesota Wild franchise history. He is the Wild’s first All Star (2002) earning 2nd […]

Do The Devils Really Have A Clone In The West?

Canucks = Devils???? This one made me wonder when I first read it….but recently Ottawa coach Bryan Murray made an interesting remark about the Vancouver Canucks adding “they are the New Jersey of the West…they trap you to death.” Vancouver suddenly goes on a winning streak that features better defense and franchise goaltending from Luongo […]

Jose Theodore: Av or Av-Not?

We’ve reached the virtual halfway point of the 2006-07 NHL season, and the Colorado Avalanche find themselves in an unfamiliar position: out of the playoff picture. Three points behind division rival Minnesota for the eighth and final playoff position in the Western Conference, the Avs have yet to find consistency in the first part of […]
