As per a friendly reminder from the Belleville News-Democrat’s own Norm Sanders, the Blues’ training camp finally, blessedly starts on Friday. All practices are free and open to the public, and a complete schedule is posted on the Blues’ official website.
↵Also included in the schedule is a schedule of the pre-season. The chance for the young guys to fight for a roster spot in actual games begins in one short week, when the Blues take on the Tampa Bay Lightning at the Scottrade Center.
↵Before you know it, hockey season’ll be starting, and it’ll take away the pain of whatever the heck the Cardinals’ season has become.
