From the Blues Official Website

Erik Johnson is day-to-day with a knee sprain. Good news as St. Louis takes a collective deep sigh.

Cracknell Assigned to Peoria. Not that Cracknell did anything wrong in Detroit. It’s a payroll thing.

Vladimir Tarasenko (Russia) and Sebastian Wannstrom (Sweden) will join Jaden Schwartz (Canada) at the IIHF WJC in Buffalo. Keep an eye out on for more BNZ coverage of the WJC coming soon. I’ll be getting back in touch with Alex Seren Rosso soon for more Q&A goodness.

Great New Year’s Eve Deal by the Blues. Act quickly because the deal is today only.

The Blues have a Christmas tree. I strongly suggest opening the orange one. “You sound like a squirrel…”

Please check out my Blues v Kings recap on Hockey Independent.

Are the Blues hexed? Mr. Lee over at Game Time thinks so. Hard to disagree.

FYI

Per Louie Korac, EJ skated pretty well at the optional morning skate at the Mills. Roman Polak participated in drills and Alex Peitrangelo was skating as well. Polak is due for evaluation shortly in to the new year. More good news coming? Please say yes hockey gods. Blue bleeding livers can’t take much more.
