Beyond Checkerdome

Hello there Blues fans! More time has passed, and more news has happened. The biggest news (to date) around these parts are the hiring of Mike Yeo as Associate coach and heir-apparent, and also Rick Wilson as the assistant coach. That fills two of the recent vacancies, and also sets up what happens in the post-Hitchcock era. Also, there's the new contract for Dmitrij Jaskin, but no news on the other free agents. Other league hirings include Brad Shaw in Columbus, and Randy Carlyle in -LOL- Anaheim. This time of year also brings around the annual Hawks salary/talent dump, and also awarding the Stanley Cup to Pittsburgh. Finally, we say a farewell to Mr Hockey, Gordie Howe.
