I don't know why I keep showing up for home games, the Blues don't.

Blues blow a 2-0 lead

Oh, and sounds like EJ may be a healthy scratch tonight.

Not a good combination of being at home and playing a better team.

Which means there is absolutely no way to tell which Blues team will show up.

Thank God we have #4 and #55 to save the day with EJ and Paulie out.

EJ a healthy scratch? WTF?

UHHH EJ is a healthy scratch? FIRE (Franking) MURRAY FOR FUCKS SAKE!

With the Blues leading 5-0 in the 3rd, the Preds score 5 straight goals and win it in OT.

So glad I get to see the boys lose at home.

I know EJ has slowed his production of late, but man...bench boyes, kariya, and all the other vets before this kid. Stupid.

I have no problem sitting EJ for a game. Sometimes watching your team on the ice from the pressbox lends to a new perspective on things. Anybody who has ever tried to learn a skill (sport, musical instrument etc) can verify this.

Sometimes, when in a slump, getting away from the thing you're trying to master can do wonders.

Hey, I get that.

But this is a home game. He's one of your best offensive options on a team dying for a home win.

Murray better tread lightly, I don’t care how much support ownership has shown him, if we lay a goose egg on this home stand, I doubt he’s making the trip to San Jose with the team.

True...also true that a player can play through slumps like Keenan did for Pronger. Either way, I'm sure EJ will learn alot from watching Weaver and Brewer.

I wanted to give Murray the benefit of the doubt, but benching EJ is the brink for me.

Always good to have a #1 pick be a healthy scratch. The word "bust" is starting to come to mind.

So we can't play, can't coach, can't develop players, can't win at home...do we have any sign at all that Dollar Dave and JD have any clue what they're doing?

Oh Christ. Stop it.

Because there's a long line of #1 picks that can't get on the ice for one of the worst teams in the league. Yeah, he's freaking Crosby.

Either that, or Murray is a grade-A bozo that should have been fired a long time ago. Pick one.
