Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

So, at the quarter-season mark, which would people prefer: Sell at the deadline for a couple of draft picks (likely in the 3rd -5th rounds at best) and try to get a better draft position (likely something in the 8-16 range), or make the playoffs as a wild card? IMHO, a winning culture and playoff e...

Re: News and Games around the NHL

"Beloved" is a bit of a stretch, imo. They averaged about 12k fans for their existence. They are more of a cult classic than anything. https://twitter.com/EmptyNettersPod/status/1724833530415624496?s=20 😂 Teams used to move to another city and keep the name. Calgary Flames, Los Angeles La...

Re: GDT: St Louis Blues at Colorado - 8:30 11/1 - TV:TNT

I really thought this team would have more offense and we would be losing games 6-4, 5-4 etc. I was so wrong. I didn’t watch the game but I agree, I thought this team would pick up where it left off and just fire away. I’m going to guess coaching is a factor here and it’s trying to make pieces that...

Re: Fantasy Hockey

It went well last night. Have no idea how my team will shape up. Wanted to get an elite goalie early for a change but they went fast. So then I pretty much ignored goalies the whole draft. And I also veered from the norm, I usually draft a team big on faceoffs, hits and blocks. Didn't go that route ...

It’s a really quantity problem not quality. Nine 3-7 defensemen.
Blues will be playing a 4-3 defense this year. Meaning the average score of every Blues game this year will be 4-3.

Re: Fantasy Hockey

Draft day! Do we know a draft order or does it assign the order randomly tonight? Usually gets randomly assigned when the draft room opens. If I had the first pick over all I know what I wouldn't do. A. Pick a goalie B. Pick Tarasenko C. Pick a player outside the Pacific Division D. None of the above

I prefer a random weeknight, but am fairly flexible if that's not the preferred timeslot amongst the group.
I'll go with this.

Re: Fantasy Hockey

league has been renewed. if you don't want to participate this year, lmk so we can find another player. if you didn't play last year and want in, also lmk so we can find another player as it has to be an even number of teams.

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

The responses to this signing are quite interesting. So Phil Kessel is still available? https://twitter.com/StLouisBlues/status/1702336434466943309?t=rcvnpZEek0DhiWMoSeP6QQ&s=19 I like it. This Blues team loves low-hanging fruit. We're a collection of just a bunch of guys. But I'm a believer!!

Huge, if true.
We'll let T.C., our fact checker check this out.

Re: News and Games around the NHL

https://twitter.com/frank_seravalli/status/1699594794186510737 Fascinating signing. Sanderson was the 5th overall pick in 2020. He's only played one year in which he was pretty solid, particularly for a 20 year old. He produced 32 points and saw some PP time. He still has one year left on his entry...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

Added what appears to be the source link for you. Please don’t copy/paste entire articles without linking the source. But yeah - they need to focus on coming together as a team. When there isn’t someone to guide/tell them what to do, maybe they will put big boy pants on and act like a seasoned play...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

The article calls it a "Huge Problem" when in reality it's probably more of a minor curiosity. It's Schenn or nobody this year. If they play the season without one they're probably just waiting for one of the younger guys to earn the role. I feel a little bad for Schenn, but overall this ...

Re: Blues 2023-2024 season thread

St. Louis Blues Captaincy Is Suddenly A Huge Problem For 2023-24 The St. Louis Blues have enough issues going into the 2023-24 season. They need to worry about improving a defense that could not stop the back-door play to save their lives, they need to settle their goaltending situation down and ar...
