David Perron on return to St. Louis: 'It was pretty special'
David Perron reflects on his St. Louis Blues tribute video: “I should have probably stayed on the bench for that one, tried to gather myself. The emotions caught me by surprise a little bit.”
St Louis loves its players, whether it's hockey, baseball, football, soccer… And once this city takes you into its heart, it's forever! YOU hold a spot waaaaayy up high in the upper UPPER echelon #DP57! I sincerely hope they try to get you back here (again, lol) in the very near future – and I hope you're willing to accept the offer!!! 💙💛#longlivethenote 💛💙#weallbleedblue 💙💛#letsgoblues
By far losing Perron was the worst move the Blues made in the last year. I mean honestly you might not have had to trade ROR or Barbie if you just had Perron. But I get the reason the Blues did it. We are gonna have a very good team next year now we got some cap space clearer and kapanen and Viana are gonna be here Blais is solid we got Saad scheen we do need another center though I'd prefer Buchie to be on the wing but he's learning at his own pace at center. Barbie and ROR would be nice to get back and maybe a good D Man like Burns next year maybe move on from either Scandella or Bortuzzo and get Burns. Idk guys.. any thoughts?
I’m a huge wings fan! DP is a great guy and we like him! I’m not sure why blues GM didn’t resign him but Yzerman jumped to sign him. I keep reading posts about why the blues traded him but I’m like they didn’t, they let him walk. Anyway, go wings and Varna might be huge for you guys, Yzerman gave up on him because of his personal issues, maybe substance abuse idk but you got him for nothing and he’s good when he plays. Good luck to Varna also!

Would love to see him come back one last time
You're always missed DP57
Best Blue. His number should be retired.

Like David Backes I hope Perry gets to come back and retire a Blue. He's been a really big part of the St. Louis Blues.

Our Blues journalist is a creeper & kinda bad at communicating….
