Re: Blues Prospects Thread (2019-20)

Looks like we might see Perunovich after all...

Maybe just for training camp and not games, but that's something.

Re: News and Games around the NHL

So a bunch of the key dates have been set for the conclusion of this season and start of next season...tentatively of course since everything has to be these day. -Cup Final will end no later than 10/2 -Draft 10/6 -Next season training camp opens 11/17...which seems super early. -Next season begins ...

Re: Amusing article about why Philly fans hate the Blues

It feels great to be a fan of a team that other teams hate. Fun article, and all valid points. I also very much share the concern that the "worst-to-first" narrative will bail out GMs of bad teams from taking any action in season. The trade deadline has become enough of a snooze already in recent ye...

Re: Blues Prospects Thread (2019-20)

Is Perunovich eligible to play for the Blues? If so, any chance we see him? I could definitely see someone like him getting time in the meaningless round robin games. He can't play this season. https://twitter.com/jprutherford/status/1278314413104267264 Way to be a Debbie Downer Dave! Debbie-Downer...

If they actually get this far, how cool would this be? March Madness but in August and with hockey.

We need to unionize BNF. We deserve better treatment and fair wages.

Re: Multiple Blues players test positive for Covid

Players being dumbasses about this has always been the biggest risk of bursting the bubble. Hopefully this is a lesson learned early enough that they get the message. I do have the say, it's odd that the NHL seems a bit more on top of the testing than the MLB. A few teams have cancelled workouts no...

It took an economically crippling pandemic, but it looks like we've avoided another lockout until 2026. Details still emerging, but the League and PA finally played nice and worked proactively. Details below, including Olympic participation in 2022 and 2026 provided there's an agreement with the IOC...

Re: Multiple Blues players test positive for Covid

I think it comes down to how much money they would lose in their TV contract for not providing a cup playoff. Dream scenery, cancel this season, all remaining teams have an equal chance for the #1 pick, Blues win it. Imagine. The league has already announced that the bottom 4 seeds from each confer...

Re: Multiple Blues players test positive for Covid

What do we think the odds are the NHL is going to announce the cancellation of the season now? Target date was supposed Aug 1st and there has been no formal announcement. Phase 3 which was actual camp has to be in serious jeopardy now. Have to think some players are going to opt out and if that sta...

Re: Confirmed: Blues Trade for ROR

Happy Anniversary! It was fun re-reading the beginning of this thread. Pretty much euphoria across the board, then some very good and very bad analysis after the fact. I think Army won this trade.

Re: Confirmed: Blues Trade for ROR

Armstrong mows down 2 GM's to the unemployment line with deals. First Hextall, then Buttercup. The question is, will another GM have the guts to make a big deal with Army? Will Army ever get the chance again? Well Hextall wasn’t fired because of the Schenn trade. He was let go because he wanted to ...

David Perron being let go and reacquired is Blues tradition at this point.

If trends hold, I'm sure he'll be fine with it when he's lifting the Cup wearing Blue Note in 2022.

Re: McKenzie’s final draft rankings

Can anyone explain why the first pick overall is being reserved for teams to be able to sandbag a five game series for? Basically its so the lottery odds would be the same as they were at the beginning of the season. Detroit still had the best odds, but there were 8 placeholder teams that cumulativ...
