Re: Canada’s final WJC roster

Watched several BU games last year (was living in CT) and Zegras is going to be huge for the US. Ultimately though, they will go as far as Knight takes them. Zegras was the USA’s best player by far in last years tourney....He can only do so much. They need a lot of help for sure...that defense is g...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

You guys just let me know how the 3rd period goes for almost every single fucking road game. https://twitter.com/PierreVLeBrun/status/1336777928705761285 Yuck, that is worst-case scenario for the Blues (well, not from a competition standpoint, lots of rebuilding teams in this group). No Chicago, Na...

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings

Petro is not Pronger..................it'll be great to see how Petro works out in a new place. He was never a difference maker here until we had the killer B combo of Berube and Binnington................Petro wants to walk away from Captaincy of a Cup team, having his jersey retired, and seeing a...

Re: Robert Thomas

IMO for the Blues to be a true contender next year, they need Thomas to make the jump into the top six and Kyrou to become a productive everyday player. I know Perron, ROR, and Sanford play well together, but man I hate seeing Sanford's name on the top line :lol: I think it depends on who’s who at ...

Robert Thomas

I was thinking through both what our top-6 might look like without Tarasenko to start next year as well about Thomas' development and curious about all of your thoughts. Right now there are 4 obvious top-6 guys in ROR, DP57, Schenn and Schwartz. 2 of which are centers and 2 are wings. The more I thi...

Re: Blues and Leafs

This one is tough for me because I am not sure what Parayko does moving forward. He is clearly one of the best defensive-defensemen in the entire league and his offense has been okay given that title. He has also played primarily with other shut down types recently against top lines, so his ceiling ...

Re: Pietrangelo Free Agency Talk

I see it from both sides. No sense in Petro taking a somewhat low offer from DA when he can explore what options are out there and maybe gain some additional leverage. And no sense in DA bidding against himself in this climate where we don't yet know how free agency will play out for the guys at the...

Re: Some Perunovich news

I wonder if this is really a good omen for the Blues? No contracts being signed can count toward this year (can't burn the year of ELC) and he will be a free agent, so every team will have essentially the same goods to play with. I hope I'm overthinking this! That’s only until the league knows the ...

Re: Young uns

I would add Mac to the list. I don't know how you keep him out of the lineup when we get healthy. He has contributed in all phases of the game.

Re: Idea For a New Points System

I like it. SO winner gets only 1 point and OT gets 2. Clever. But you know the NHL likes the tight standings and they wouldn't want to take teams out of the playoff picture. [/quote] Agree with above. Even if not initially intended, the loser point is now less about rewarding the losing team as it i...

Re: Binnington signs for two years

Another thing to think about here is the cap situation in 2 years. We have a ton of money coming off the books in 2 years (Allen, Steen, Bozak, Schwartz in particular). While a good chunk of that money will go to raises for several guys (Petro, Dunn, Thomas, Schenn, Schwartz?), there should be plent...

Re: Blues Prospect Camp - June 25-28 at Enterprise Center

Not to throw too much cold water on Kostin, and I know you are talking 4th line role, but this was his stat line last year at San Antonio in 66 games. 10 - 14 - 24 and was a -28. For reference, Jordan Nolan had 11 more points in 7 fewer games and was only a -9. Kostin has a long way to go on both en...

Re: Blais re-signs for 1/850,000

Happy it's only for one year. I'm not sold on this guy. Agreed...Blues need to give him some more ice time this year to see if it's worth keeping him. He's 23 and it's time to decide whether he is a NHL player or a minor league guy. I guess it depends on your expectations. He proved in the playoffs...
