from Korac:

A couple noteworthy items:

* Buchnevich will be playing in his 600th NHL game.

“Overall I thought he had a great camp,” Montgomery said. “I thought he started the year off playing well. Hasn’t had puck luck, and I think like anyone that’s a gifted offensive player when you don’t have the production that you’re used to, it gets magnified early in the year. But I know by the end of the year he’s going to be a 25 to 30 goal scorer for us with 70-80 points for us.”

* Blues forward Nick Bjugstad will face the Mammoth for the first time since signing a two-year, $3.5 million ($1.75 million average annual value) contract with the Blues on July 1. Bjugstad spent one season in Utah last year; he was with Coyotes franchise for previous two seasons before they relocated to Salt Lake City.

* Thomas needs one point for 400 in his career (472 games).

Blues need a statement game...either a lop-sided win or a full on brawl filled game, something to let fans know they give a toss.

Yeah right....he might get 60.

Either way, they'll get beat up:

Run up the score = get beat up
Start a brawl = get beat up

....they'd better keep it close.

Hoping Mails and Rudy bring an edge. They both need to find ways to help form a team

Hard to imagine how he could be. I expect him to bounce back strong.

He was great in his first game.
