I'm glad Army didn't wait and get caught with his pants down

Dougie ain’t nobody’s bitch!

Now, if he turns around and trades Faulk and still signs Petro, then he really is the man!

I am absolutely stunned. Thought this theory was BS from guys that weren't quite insiders but dreamed of being so. Apologies to Strickland and Upshall for all the things I muttered to myself as I chuckled at them.

7 years at 6.5. He's older than you think, but there's your PP QB for the next few years. Army is a damn assassin.

Stunned too. I remember JR saying on the radio this afternoon he didn't think there was any validity to the Krug rumors, in case we are ever unsure if he has inside info

Maybe I'm becoming too much of a fan boy at this point but I actually think I prefer this to resigning Petro.

You get a younger guy and likely save a few bucks. Parayko can step in and handle the defensive responsibilities of Petro and Krug can step in and fill the offensive responsibility of Petro.

The Blues are still a contenda baby!

Now lets have him and Thomas shake hands

Well, he's only one year younger. He's better offensively, but I think probably wasn't getting the same type of defensive assignments. Key plusses though, he's left handed and is cheaper than Petro. What a fucking wild signing.

I knew something was up. It was way too quiet on our end.

Enjoy Vegas Petro.

Plus now the Blues are free to announce Sanford as Captain

Petro and Krug both trending on Twitter.

Armstrong really upset the apple cart with that signing.

Damn.

Doug is kicking ass. As soon as the team was about to hit bottom he just flipped on the damn switch and he hasn’t stopped. Best GM in the league right now.

He convinced teams to take Lehtera and Berglund...I believe he can pull a rabbit out of a hat and convince a team to take Faulk

So I half listened to parts of the Army press conference. He didn't close the door on Petro....

Even though I like this move I'm pretty bummed at the same time. Means Petro is gone, and he's been one of my favorite players for a long time. Him hoisting the cup is the greatest sports moment for me. Sucks.

Yeah, takes 2 terrible signings and parlays that into Schenn and ROR, and then subsequently a Cup. Would never have believed it. He is the best GM in league now. Hands down. And it seems like he’s picking up steam. Dude is on a roll.

Dunn, Faulk, and Krug. That’s a lot of potential offense on D.

If this is the plan, move out Faulk now , Sign Petro, & move Bozak before the season, and you're there.

Krug-Parayko
Scandella-Faulk
Dunn-Bortuzzo

It’s not bad but man, losing Petro and Bouw weakens the top 4. Especially if playoff Scandella was the real Scandella
