Re: News and Games around the NHL

As dull as the West Wild Card race has been (credit to our boys for dragging it out longer than expected), the race for the final spot in the East is pretty great. The Caps currently hold the final spot, but are tied at 87 points with Detroit and Philly. The Penguins are still alive at 86 points. Ea...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

Well there should be realignment anyway. There is no reason Colorado and Arizona/SLC should be in a division with St Louis, Nashville, Chicago. Go to eight 4 team divisions instead of four 8 team divisions. Winner of each division makes the playoffs while the next 4 best teams make up the rest of t...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

The Caps and Flyers have absolutely bottled their seasons right now. Both currently find themselves out of the playoffs riding a 7 game and 5 game losing streak. Still time to overtake the Penguins but that is much more painful than the Blues trying to claw back and coming up short. The Penguins se...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

In Armstrong we trust has maybe been used too much in the last few years. It seems that if you're always a middling team, never getting close to the top tier draft picks thats where you'll stay. Yes, you might get a diamond from the late first or second round once in awhile, but that's rarifide air...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

Can you imagine if the Red Wings or Avalanche had a goalie like Binnington in the 90's... they'd load up every year behind him. Armstrong is wasting this guys career on his five year plans. Fuck a five year plan... nobody has five fucking years... the President of the United states only gets four. ...

Opening puck drop line brawl!! Hockey is so back https://twitter.com/DaveyUpper/status/1775663777289003445?s=20 It's too bad hockey fans hate this. I just know Bettman was in his office throwing a tantrum watching this. I believe 4 of the 5 skaters on the ice for each team were ejected after the op...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

We badly need a second line center for next season. Schenn just isn't cutting it as a second line center. The top UFAs available are Sean Monahan, Chandler Stevenson, Max Domi and Elias Linkholm. Who would you like to see Armstrong go after? Lindholm is the most attractive player in that group, but...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

This whole situation completely alters the Blues offseason. You now have a top 6 forward spot you expected filled that now needs a body. Kapanen, Blais and Scandella are all going to be UFAs this summer. That opens about $7.5 in cap space. The only RFAs are Alexandrov and Perunovich, neither of whi...

Re: Prospects Thread

Jimmy Snuggeruud has notified The University of Minnesota that he'll be returning to play for their team next season. That's a big disappointment for me, especially as it raises the possibility of him reaching UFA status after that season, and an opportunity to sign with any NHL team. I don't know ...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

From a JR interview with Snuggerud: "I don’t know what the future holds, but to be honest, that would be the plan,” Snuggerud said. “I think one more year is my goal in mind. Next year would be the year.” Look, he will more likely than not sign with the Blues, but none of his comments are all t...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

https://twitter.com/andystrickland/status/1775254485570351341 This is why Andy makes the big bucks. Blues shouldn't be alarmed AT ALL that the player they think is NHL ready is bypassing a ton of money because the college coaches want him to continue to play in college. I know others on here feel ot...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

Hopefully it's just a one year thing and he still fully intends to come here. Still sucks that it'll be at least another year before it happens. “I am excited to announce I’m coming back to the University of Minnesota next season,” Snuggerud said in a statement. “It was a tough ending to this seaso...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

Not the news we wanted. We can now start to stress if/when he will actually be a Blue. He will be one year from free agency upon the completion of next season. Blues GM Doug Armstrong: "After talking to Jimmy and his family the past couple days, the organization fully supports his decision to ...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

That's my assumption. Comes to camp next year with a chance to make the team. He turns 19 in June... Think he'll be ready?? Probably not. But I'm basing that off his first exposure to playing against players not his age in the SHL which did not go well at all. He was set up to fail with that as wel...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

He's having a career year at age 27, on one of the best offensive teams in the NHL this season. If he keeps this production up (45-50 point, solid 2-way game), that might be worth it for some teams. I think he'll return to form, though, (20-25 points)and be a very good bottom-6 guy, though, and tha...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

What's the ETA on Dvorsky? Next year?? That's my assumption. Comes to camp next year with a chance to make the team. If Binner can stay intact here, we're going to have our 2nd Cup in 3 or 4 years. JMO Yup, just need every single one of these forward prospects to hit their 100% potential and one or...

Re: Fantasy Hockey

Gonna be a tough offseason for Denny Pratt Tragedy. Insiders expect a great deal of turnover. Change in draft strategy next time? The draft strategy was sound. Team came out of the gates on fire. GM failed to adapt to injuries in season. Inability to overcome adversity, might need to strip the C an...

My team has sucked for months, just been feeding on the teams near the cellar. Been saying I'd be out in first round for a while.
