Let me know your thoughts and expectations for the Blues this off-season
Faulk is the one they want to keep,krug is the one they want to move
It's hard to imagine Armstrong getting out of a meaningful contract. Last year, he was confident he'd move Scandella, but left the draft frustrated. Without a new defensive coach straightening things out, I feel the team will be in a similar situation next year with even bigger question marks. If guys like Vrana and Kapanen have great bounce back seasons, do you extend them or trade them? Blues have some decent prospects looking to join the team over the next 2 seasons.
Great video buddy appreciate the update on my team. A lot of blues fans are worried that we are in a rebuild but Armstrong is calling it a RETOOL to potentially sell more tickets. I personally think the team is in better shape than most fans think. If Armstrong can pull off a miracle and offload Krug or at least one of our dmen who all have NTC contracts for some fucked up reason than I think we will be in much better shape. I am excited to see what he does with the three picks we have in the 1st round. He could potentially use on of those picks to pair with a Krug trade to make it more appetizing for a team to pick him up. I guess only time will tell. š
Blues need quality youth additions
My preseason prediction for the Blues was 33-42-7 and they finished 37-38-7,so, I wasn't that far off—-The Blues were horrible defensively and the goaltending was less than stellar IMHO, no way Binnington is a $6Mil a season goaltender. Special teams, normally a strength of this team, were just awful. The loss of David Perron really showed on the PP and the PK was just brutal all season,3rd worst in the NHL. They're calling it a RETOOL in STL, but, I think it's 3-4 years before this team is truly competitive again. Good young core of players, led by Thomas and Kyrou, but there are glaring holes on this team , for certain, and GM Armstrong will have some tough decisions to make this year.
Brown, Pitlick, Leivo…..maybe 10 G between the 3 of them….the Blues can do better on the free agent market. I think there are better role players available.
Binnington needs to stop screwing around and focus on keeping the puck out of the net…š
What would StLouis want to get Parayko?
Heinola,Pionk,Stanley,Barron,Chisholm,Nikkanen,Gustafson,Torgersson, Lundmark,Wagner,Dillion,Demelo,Appleton?
I'd like to see Schenn here too but his contact goes to long.
I want a dman here with Morrissey like Sanheim,Provorov,Dumba,Parayko,Pulock.
