Daily Bluenotes: 8-30-10

Monday is here…

Check out the links. I will be back throughout the next week dropping in the Blues Breakdowns for the upcoming season. Stay tuned.

-

The Halak news hyped on Twitter by his agent, Alan Walsh, ended up as “non-news” for Blues fans. He is going back to Montreal to sign autographs for $20. It’s a wonderful gesture to give the money to a hospital.

-

Alessandro Seren Rosso, Russian Prospect guy extraordinaire, says that Blues top forward prospect Vladimir Tarasenko will be on the Russian U-2o team for a tourney in Linkoping, Sweden. The Four Nations Tournament takes place September 3rd to 5th. I strongly suggest everyone follow him on Twitter. Will be a great source of info on Tarasenko this season.

-

Former Blues forward Lee Stempniak found a home, for two more years. He agreed to a two-year, $3.5 million contract. Congrats to a great guy and solid player. He brings an element of speed and scoring that they really need more of.

-

The latest results for my Blues Q&A over at Hockey Independent.com is up. Who are you more excited to see, Pietrangelo or Halak? Voters were split.

-

Off-Season Blues Q&A #9 is ready to roll this week.

Question: Which rival team do you love seeing the Blues beat more? Detroit, Chicago or Nashville?
