Darn, there’s going to be an outdoor NHL game without Conks! Maybe he’ll get traded to Philly...? haha

E, you never know, conkanen lost 3 in last 4 years. He was totally responsible for our loss in O6.

It’s always been a revolving door from the Wings to the Blues goalie-wise. Ozzie, Manny, now Conks. Next year they’ll pick up Howard.

Well, Andy Murray loves active keepers and he’s got a good one in Conklin. But he’s still playing for the BBBBs.
