Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

The fancy stats have not been kind to Parayko since he got hurt a few years ago. I just read this snippet from Dom at the Athletic (one of the biggest fancy stat boys) regarding how/why that's been the case, particularly since he's been good by the eye test at least this season and parts of last: Bl...

Buch for $2.9M for 2 years is an insane value. It also would mean that almost any team could fit him in under the cap with a little salary coming back to STL.

So with Edmonton moving a 1st for Henrique, that presumably takes them out of the Buchnevich derby. Based on the reports/speculation I've seen, that leaves Vegas, Carolina and maybe Detroit. Vegas seems to still have room after picking up Mantha, but we'll see.

Tarasenko used his NTC to make sure he ended up somewhere he liked.

He finally made his way to a Florida team. The Panthers have been a damn juggernaut for the last few months, so it'll be interesting to see how they use him.

playing devil's advocate here, but given the skill on display, maybe, you know, DON'T part ways with buch? i realize there is starting to be a log jam of prospects behind him that will be cheaper, and i'm all about letting the kids play, but how many times have we had high hopes for a good-looking ...

Looking at this fancy stats player card, I'm convinced the plan a couple years ago was to pair Parayko with Krug and it just did not work:

It used to be Krug was the defenseman I most wanted to trade away. Now I think he's the one I most want to keep. Faulk plays when he wants to. That's it. He's been coasting on this team for a long time. He fits in with the rest of the team. This team has no care, no self motivation. Team leadership...
