Maybe they miss having Nick Leddy around. They also have 3 second round picks all back to back to back. 29 and a d-man for 41?

Sadly I think they're hanging onto those to trade for DeBrincat.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!

Bruins fans seem to think this will lead to them being able to re-sign Bertuzzi now. Sure wish the Blues could find a team willing to take on a contract for nothing.
They will be thrilled when they find out it's Krug.
They can get the whole band back together and bring in Lucic too.
haha OH

Too bad. Would definitely loved to have him back at that price. It's a bargain for Vegas
I agree. The 5 year term is good, hard to imagine a team wouldn't have given him more AAV. But hey, if you're happy in a place, 25 million isn't a bad payday to stay there.

Yeah, that five year term is very team friendly. It's a great deal for Vegas.

So was I. But it's tempting to stay with The Stanley Cup winner( with a relatively young roster and forseeable successful future), rather than go to a retooling team in transition (probably for at least 2 more years).
