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.

Re: NCAA Hockey Tournament

Minnesota down 2-1 in the third... Gophers scored 2 in the third to advance. Snuggerud era waits at least a couple more days. Snuggerud's performance in the Sioux Falls Regional semifinals game vs. The Mavericks was forgettable. Minus 1, 8 shots with all but one lacking much chance of producing a g...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

While we are revisiting this thread, it seemed a lot of people underestimated what Nashville did this offseason. Trotz came in and was determined last offseason to reestablish their identity that they had before. He did exactly that and they are currently reaping the rewards of it. It's something I...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

So now that the die seems just about fully cast for this season, I went back and looked at the beginning of this thread. Some nice bits like DPW wondering if Sunny would sign here, an insightful post from a very handsome forum member commenting that this roster looks like the 5th best in the divisio...

Re: Fantasy Hockey

congrats to all the folks that made it to the championship bracket playoffs! i am once again outside looking in. I couldn't have made it without you, thanks! You have the unenviable task of trying to beat Dave 2 weeks in a row. Reminds me of the Rams in 2000 when they beat the Saints to get in the ...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

Will someone explain the get him in early side of the discussion?I'm confused. I am guessing the argument is, if you get a handful of games under your belt, you'll have a better handle on how to prepare in offseason, come into training camp at some point beyond square one. The other part is, you re...

I hate my team. I will lose in the first round.

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

This is dependent on two things, I think. 1. How soon the Gophers playoff run ends. 2. Are the Blues still in the race when that happens. Count me among those that think 1. Gophers probably don't make Frozen Four (meaning done no later than 3/31) and 2. Probably doesn't matter if they're in the rac...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

The kids are coming. Dean debuts tomorrow, Bolduc has gotten a tasted, Snuggerud likely to late in the season as well. I'm sure they won't all be permanent fixtures next season, but the next wave is coming in like a tsunami. This is dependent on two things, I think. 1. How soon the Gophers playoff ...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

Flames on the verge of taking the game in hand Vegas had on us. Up 4-1 late in the third. Seeing Vegas go for broke at the trade deadline and missing the playoffs would be epic! Weren't they the ones that picked up Hertl? Is he even playing yet? Yeah, Vegas is all in. Vegas is all in, but Hertl won...
