Good Morning St. Paul!


The Islanders wake up this morning in St. Paul for the first of three games in four nights in three cities. Not an easy schedule, but one the young team doesn't seem to have a problem keeping.
It's a mini-holidy home-coming for Minnesota native Kyle Okposo as he will be swamped by family and friends. But the party won't last long as they head out for St. Louis immediately after.
On Tuesday, I caught up to Bruno Gervais and veteran NHLer Jon Sim to ask if these condensed road trips are a problem. Check it out on HockeyBuzz.
Puck drop tonight at 8 pm, pre-game I am assuming is 7:30 pm. Join us on Twitter for #NotoriousNateThompson night. Hopefully... he's actually playing.
*Oh! Almost forgot. Fellow Blog Boxer Tiger Track Tom Liodice actually made this trip to St. Paul and I am very, very jealous. You're lucky I like you Tom.
Also... If you haven't watched the October Highlights video like 100 times, you're really missing something awesome


But I do love Linkin Park

I'm watching this game and no one mentioned that Owen Nolan was the Number 1 draft pick overall in 1990, the year John Tavares was born. Who says hockey players have short careers lol.
