Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
427I always liked DLR as a 4th line guy with his speed. He only made 700k last year, but every penny of cap space helps.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
428That makes sense for him. He really didn't have a role here. I guess we can officially say that Detroit won the trade.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
432Yeah, but that might of been a Berube thing. If the Blues crash and burn next year, then I see him being gone. It's the last year of his deal right? If this team ends up rebuilding then I don't see Berube part of it.barnburner wrote: Tue Jun 01, 2021 3:42 pmI'd call it a draw, since the other guy wasn't going to play here.Rivermanfan wrote: Tue Jun 01, 2021 1:52 pmThat makes sense for him.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
433So Kerbs says Blues are looking for a top line LW in trade or UFA. I get that's a need but is he just fine with our D?
Parayko can surely play much better but the rest of these guys are what they are. Faulk is fine, but Krug, Dunn, Scandella, Bortz, and the rest of them are not going to improve their game much. Seriously disappointed how gutted our blueline is since 2019.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
434Got to believe DA is going to redo that defense. He has to.......................this could be a great off season if DA feels the urgency to make moves. And he just might. This team's window is shrinking.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
435I wonder how much depends on what happens with the expansion draft. If Dunn ends up in Seattle, I think that exacerbates the need to add on D. How much do they think Mikkola can bring next year? Really I think a big need on the backend is a guy that can kill penalties. They finished 25th in PK% this season, and though a small sample size against a great team, only killed 50% in the playoffs. That's a yikes for me.ratonmono wrote: Wed Jun 02, 2021 1:37 pm So Kerbs says Blues are looking for a top line LW in trade or UFA. I get that's a need but is he just fine with our D?

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
436He will definitely do something to the defense....too many pieces, but not the right ones, maybe. But let’s remember, you can’t blame Armstrong for Parayko being hurt, for Bouwmeester almost dying, and signing Petro to an 8-year deal at $8 million+ would be a disaster. So I’ll give Army another summer to tweak the defense a little more and see if he can make it work a little better.
Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
437Disagree completely on Petro. I’d rather have him for 8 at 8 than Krug for more than 5 for any number of years.Matangama wrote: Wed Jun 02, 2021 2:57 pm He will definitely do something to the defense....too many pieces, but not the right ones, maybe.

I don’t blame him for Bo or Parayko getting hurt. I do blame him for signing Krug.
Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
438It’s not like Krug was bad. Players come and go...Petro makes zero difference in us getting swept by the Avs or whoever would have beaten us in the first round. For whatever reason...the boys didn’t want play this post season. It’s evident in that pic floating around like 2 two days after the playoffs ended. Several of them around a pool in Vegas...drinks in hand and a look of complete happiness. Those boys for whatever reason couldn’t wait to get away.ratonmono wrote: Wed Jun 02, 2021 3:27 pmDisagree completely on Petro.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
440Petro wouldn’t have saved us vs Colorado but going from Petro Parayko Bouw Eddy top four to Parayko Faulk Krug Dunn/Scandella is poop. I’m not overly attached to Petro so much as I’m not a fan of Krug at all.NHLTIM wrote: Wed Jun 02, 2021 3:52 pmIt’s not like Krug was bad.

I don’t blame them though. I think it’s just another Covid year ...it doesn’t really matter. Next year though if it’s another first round exit it’s gonna be ugly.

Re: 2021 St. Louis Blues Thread
450Regarding the chubby girl; you get ousted in the first round you get ousted in the first round quality. 10s are for champs.
I can see the players being less than enthused with these last two seasons. Until the crowds started showing up in force the games were blah. Next year the games start counting again. We're still the rightful defending champs of real regular seasons!
