And the injuries keep coming...

Scroll down three posts, and you'll see the latest decimation of the St Louis Blues. Well were going to need to add more to that list here shortly..

Add the Capt. Eric Brewer, and Rookie Forward Patrick Berglund, and of course Paul Kariya was supposed to come back a few games is now out for another week or two...

I've tried to grasp this and try to explain it in terms of football so here's my best way:

You're starting QB is out. (Paul Kariya)
You're starting #2 Line Backer is out for the year. (DJ King)
You're #1 Draft pick #1 overall in the draft that year Safety/Dback is out for the year. (EJ)
You're #1 Draft pick Running Back who dominated the games is out (TJ Oshie)
You're #1 Wide Receiver is lost for the immediate future (Andy McDonald)
You're #1 Draft Pick Tight End is lost and you don't know when he'll return (Patrick Berglund)
You send your other #1 draft pick Quarter back down to college after playing in 9 games (if it was possible) so he can develop and get his strength up to play in the big league.. (Mainly because this team is decimated with injuries so his coming out party would be better next year?)
You send your #1 Point producing Full back(Chris Porter) down to the practice squad to make room for a veteran because the coach likes vets (Dan Hinote)
Your #2 Fullback (Dan Hinote) is injured so you sub in your Fullback who barely made the practice squad (Reiger, I don't even know the guys 1st name that's how unheard of he is)
Now you're Captain who's your#1 Line Backer goes down in practice(Eric Brewer)
Move you're #5 Dback, and turn him into your #3 wide out (Steve Wagner from Defense to Wing)

I think I covered them all, I'm sure I missed 1 or 2, but as of now that's the way the Blues go in to tonight's game against the Ducks! Quack! Quack!!

You might as well call them the Peoria Rivermen (Blues Minor League team)
Here's the chart for tonight barring anyone else gets hurt while getting to the game tonight..

Regier(Started in Peoria)-Tkachuk-Boyes
Stempniak-Backes(Hasn't played center since College~4years ago)-Perron
Winchester(Started in Peoria)-McClement-Stastny(Started in Peoria)
Crombeen(Didn't even play with this team till this week, was picked up off waivers)-Paddock(Started in Peoria)-Janssen

Not to slam this team at all, but I'm pretty sure some AHL teams have more skill on their team then this team does.. Oh wait that might be a bash..... Wait.... Truth hurts...

I mean the Blues have 4 legit forwards playing tonight:
Tkachuck, Backes, Perron, Boyes/Stempniak (These 2 together make 1 legit player)

Oh well, I'll still watch, and hope they make it a game..
