To go along with that there is an update from Strickie this afternoon. David Perron has moved in with Strength and Conditioning Coach Nelson Ayotte for the remainder of the season. Could he turn into another Brindamour?? One thing is for sure, David will learn conditioning and diet from one of the best. Here's a little update about that from Jeremy rutherford.

David picked up a goal and an assist tonight , although the Blues got their butts kicked 9-5. I doubt they'll send him to the WJC.

funny story about Perron you all might enjoy ----------------------------------------- “We talked to him about it,” Murray said. “There’s going to be moments (when he needs to sit and watch).” Perron had an interesting day Tuesday. He is living at a downtown hotel now and thought that practice was at the Mills. So he drove 25 minutes to practice only to find the place dark. There was traffic both ways on Highway 70, so by the time he got to Scottrade Center, the team already had its meetings. “We just had a session about how you handle yourself as a pro,” Murray said about a previous meeting with Perron, in which he told the rookie, “You’re a young guy and you’re going to have those moments, but it’s my job to remind you. Do everything the right way. Then he misses the meeting.” Perron showed up after the meetings, but in time to get dressed with the rest of the players. Then came the prank you knew was coming. “The guys cut his laces,” Murray said laughing. “He’s in there throwing his gear on, red in the face, sweat is pouring, goes to put his skates on and (snap).” The team busted up laughing. “We all knew his laces were cut,” D.J. King said. “He’s in a go-go-go situation. We’re all watching him as he’s lacing them and then all the sudden he’s like ‘Oh man.’ We started laughing and he said, ‘What’s funny.’ I said, ‘Your laces are cut, that’s what is funny.’”
