Maybe he's someone to leave unprotected in the expansion draft?
That's the hope. I think what's most disappointing about him isn't even how bad he's been defensively but how little he's added offensively. Career worst at both ends of the ice
I shall remember this post and lay in wait...
Lol of what? Him doing one positive thing? I hope he does

The Blues have looked as bad in this game as they did in all the round robin games. They'd better score on this power play.

I have to disagree, Robb. I think they've looked better, in spurts, than they did in any of the round robin games.

I'm not as down on him as you are DPW, but he hasn't been what I was expecting when we traded JED and then signed him to a long term deal. The playoffs are when I'll make my final decision on him. If, after everything, he still isn't what the Blues want, leave him unprotected. Honestly, I like Scandela's game better so far.

Once they got a little more physical they looked a lot better.

And I did NOT see this coming. I couldn't believe it when the Blues signed him for the third time. DP57 has never signed a contract with any other team. Every contract he signed was with the Blues. That's kinda funny when you think about it.

I know my opinion isn't unbiased because I love hockey more than any other sport, but the NHL playoffs are unparalleled when it comes to post season sports. Nothing even comes close. Maybe some might say the NBA, but I'm not a fan, and an 8 seed beating a 1 seed happens about as often as we see Haley's Comet in the NBA playoffs.

And he's been the only one scoring since The Pandemic Break. And with Tarasenko out all season, Perron led The Blues in goal scoring. And unlike his earlier stints with The Blues, many, if not most of his goals come at crucial times in games.

Absolutely agree. Nothing comes close to the Stanley Cup playoffs
