I will be mailing it in as my spot on the roster is secured.

F: S. Bitten, W. Bitten, Bolduc, Dean, Kyrou, Laferriere, McGing, Peca, Saad, Schenn, Toropchenko, Washkurak

D: Bortuzzo, Kalynuk, Kessel, Loof, Rosen, Tucker

G: Binnington, Ellis





Who, Nathan Walker???
I think a team has issues when people question them when they cut a big, slow, oafish lug who will still outscore Walker, MacEachern (and maybe Neighbours) combined.

There are serious issues if a team can't average five shots on goal a period.

In their last three preseason games vs CBJ, Chicago, and now Dallas the Blues have been outshot 94 - 53. That's a pathetic 17 shots a game.

I did not expect the offense to be an issue. We'll see if it's just some weird preseason anomaly or we're in for some dark post Pronger era type times.
Just a Russian propaganda account

On the post game show they were concerned about this being a carryover from last season. I think this is a result of Berube's insistence they rely on puck movement to get a quality scoring chance rather than shooting more to develop rebound chances. It's stifling them.

Blues fans suck, too. It's a match made in heaven.
