asimplechord1. Work! Boss is out of town at a professional meeting, so there have been no "I know you're busy, but can you please do this too?" conversations. I appreciate this.
2. Aeros. :( They still haven't (and probably won't) signed a new lease with Les Alexander and the Toyota Center. It's 99% certain that they're moving to Des Moines after this season.
3. Also Aeros: Eric Haula is supposed to play in his first AHL game tonight. :) Curious to see the Gophers' leading scorer at this level. And there are plenty of guys he's played with or against on the team, so.
4. Leftover birthday cake for breakfast: still an excellent life choice, no matter how much my trainer disapproves.
5. As much as I'm enjoying Empires' Live In Chicago, I still feel that this must be said: GIMME THAT NEW MUSIC. I KNOW YOU'VE RECORDED IT.
6. Apparently it's a good week for music on the internet: Frank Turner's live EP is streaming, and so is Fall Out Boy's Save Rock and Roll. WELL DONE, BUTCH WALKER. WELL. DONE.
7. Clayton Stoner. Why is he still playing? Oh, right, because apparently the Wild only have three useful defensemen, and they need warm bodies. Can't they call up Kampfer? Scandella? Mara, even? Ugh, that pass was so ugly.

Date: 2013-04-11 12:03 pm (UTC)Seriously, I think it's ALL the Wild/Aeros d-men. Last night Scandella made a pass eerily similar to the one Stone made trying to clear the zone, and he's just lucky that Marc Arcobello isn't Marian Hossa. Of course, they went on to lose 4-1, so that one saved shot didn't mean much in the end. AND they lost yet another goalie to injury. Since Kuemper went up and Hackett was traded they've gone through three goalies. The one who ended the game (it was already 3-1 when he went in) was signed on a PTO last week.

The position of Aeros goalie is like a black hole of bad luck injuries. :| This has happened to them before. Ugh. But I did get to see some of Kuemper's game. Not bad for a rookie. :)
