#OhCaptainOurCaptain 2-0 Jets

Kyle Connor makes it 3-0

and apparently while I was outside throwing something in recycling our old pal Chris Thorburn was in the box thus causing PP that caused Connor's PP goal

This is going to be an interesting evening isn't it

And so I think we all learned a valuable lesson from this: "Don't recycle".

Um, okay... I just couldn't figure out the connect between Satchmo, a New Orleans raised boy, who moved to Chicago and New York had to do with the St Louis. 

He certainly did sing some blues. 

Though, considering the Louis Armstrong airport is in New Orleans.... 

The song is called St Louis Blues and so is the team

Okay time for a history lesson...

The team is named after the famous W. C. Handy song "Saint Louis Blues."

"It was one of the first blues songs to succeed as a pop song and remains a fundamental part of jazz musicians' repertoire. Louis Armstrong, Bessie Smith, Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Guy Lombardo, and the Boston Pops Orchestra are among the artists who have recorded it. "

Maybe I'm too old or maybe it's just that sort of hockey trivia that got stuck in my head but I thought it was well known they were named after the song and that Louis Armstrong was arguably the most well known of artists associated with it.

A lot of thinking goes into these game themes.
