Missin' Curfew Show Interviews Cam Fowler

[TBone]

OK... I laughed out loud three times in like the first minute. Boys being boys, aye?

They finally get around to interviewing Fowler around the 30 minute mark.

Pucks, booze and stories. Great show!

I tried to listen, but couldn't get through it. Those guys are just a tad too douchey for me and Jordan Schmaltz rubs me the wrong way...he also does the Hockey Night in Scottsdale podcast with Heat Daddy aka Robby Gucci, who don't get me wrong can be pretty funny, but those guys are pretty open about being complete degenerate cokehead partiers. I get a vibe from Schmaltz that he never really cared about anything besides partying, which is why he never lived up to his potential as a first-round pick of the Blues. So anyway, rant over haha and sorry for being a grumpy old man!

I used to hope we'd pick up Justin Schultz so he could play with Jordan Schmaltz and Jaden Schwartz. I know it's dumb but it always made me laugh.

[TBone]

My biggest takeaway is he wants to stay and wants to sign an extension that works for both parties.

If he can maintain the level of play he showed last year, I hope it can work out with him retiring as a Blue.

[SameOldBlues]

Just out of morbid curiosity, does anyone know if that P[ositively] O[bnoxious] S[impleton] Jordan Schmaltz ever did anything whatsoever after the Blues finally dumped him? Im guessing no, but I never did know what happened to em.

If he's good with a 3 year AAV about 4.5/5 then no reason he shouldn't.

Good ol’ Ontario boy. Missed your enthusiasm on these guys. You get so excited over them!!!

It might be sometimes hard to get players to come to stL, but once they've played for the Blues you don't hear anything bad about being here ... just the opposite. Players like it here. I give Stillman, the executives, coaches, former players and people of stl credit. We don't have a beach or mountains or tax breaks ... so it's something about the vibe that players get from the community of people here. STL gets a bad rap that doesn't really fit the vast majority of what people experience here.

I'd say the moniker of "murder capital of the United States" tends to scare people off.

However, once they realize St. Louis isn't set up like other major cities, meaning they can live in Chesterfield, not worry about anything really, get to practice in 10 minutes, the airport in 5, and the arena in 20.

Once they experience all of that, all of a sudden St. Louis is a lot better city to live in.

You're right. My son went to stl college of pharmacy (STLCOP). A lot of his classmates came from other states and moved back to other states. However, most of them thought the people in STL were nicer in general than where they came from. STLCOP is located in the city, so not the greatest location to draw people, but the friendlinesss of people here was still a common take. The midwest in general gets that rep, but STL in particular even moreso.

Nope. Didn't ever play in the NHL after we were done with him. Played a couple years in the AHL for other organizations, then went to Europe for a year and change, and then called it a career and went into podcasting.

That is such nonsense, the only difference in STL is how the borders are drawn and numbers calculated. I would never live in any city but they all have their good and bad areas. The only difference is how they draw the lines of what is considered the city.

What part bothers you? The Borders of STL are drawn in a way where all the usual crime found in all cities is calculated in the crime rate but the mass population lives outside of the borders of city limits where large residential areas that are heavily populated and have relatively very little crime/murder are not figured in. The crime/murder rate can be greatly manipulated by the borders of the city and that is what has happened in STL.

Aren't you two actually agreeing with each other?
