It's Thursday, and after four days of practice, the Blues are ready to get back to winning. To help in that quest is T.J. Oshie, who has been out since Oct. 23 due to an appendectomy, and Lars Eller, who was called up from Peoria.
Tonight, the Blues will take on Calgary at home. Some of us are cringing a little bit because "home" hasn't felt much like home yet this season. With a record at home of 2-5-0 (including the win in Sweden), the Blues are looking for the offense that they seemed to have temporarily lost. Notice, I say temporarily...Why? Because now that the Yankees have won the world series, they are going to return the Blues offense that they stole at the beginning of October. (note: This will be the only time I discuss the Yankees in this blog...no more)
Tonight would be an important win with Philadelphia and Atlanta up next on our schedule. Having some momentum going into these next couple games is a definite plus. Speaking of Atlanta, how they spoiled our home opener and have a better record than us is just plain wrong.
Alright Oshie, we need you to step it up tonight. Use your pee-wee football training and take out some Flames!
