Let's Go Blues

Vegas was one I wrestled with. Only reason I put them second from the bottom is that these last 2 years they were actually expected to make noise and win and they got bounced... this year in upset fashion. So their fans finally felt some bite. But yea, could easily put them in the bottom. I seriousl...

Mainly just for fun: What team's fan base do you feel the worst for?

The Athletic just put out its "Top 50 Prospects" rankings and article. Blues have nobody in the Top 50. Only when it's expanded to 64 players by listing 14 honorable mentions (unranked) does Scott Perunovich make an appearance. The Blues Prospects list has to be somewhere in the bottom half of the l...

Barring some team losing a scorer to an injury, I think we start the year with tank. (Probably 22 skaters to keep us cap compliant)

The good news about keeping tank is, you put him on a line with Buch and Schenn, you can call that line the Russchenns. /wah wah

Love it

I realize this is probably nowhere near Army's thought process, and I don't like the Sanford signing one bit, but given Thomas' drop in production, Tarasenko's trade request and the apparent difficulty in trading him, and the existence of about 1000 centers in the system is it possible that Tarasen...

I have seen rumors that the isles, devils, and a 3rd team might be interested in tank. curious to see if we get anything more than cap space back, if we have to sweeten with a pick, or if we might get value. could see tank for a smaller cap hit contract and if its with lou the lam there will be dra...

Great deal. Gets a little money in Kyrou's pocket and by the time the contract is over he'll have 2 more years of stats and he'll be arb eligible and can start throwing some leverage around.

Great deal for both parties.

I practiced family law for 6 years out of law school. There's a reason I don't practice it anymore. People going through a separation or divorce are emotional, hurt, and 5,000 other emotions. The allegations that people make against each other in such situations are all over the place and often craz...

Per capfriendly and Twitter

Apparently Vlad got in touch with Buchnevich after he signed. How are we supposed to take that? Fellow countryman wanted to congratulate him on his new deal? He changed his mind and wants to stay in St. Louis? Yea some people we're asking JR that on Twitter (the latter question). JR's opinion is no...

Interesting to see what Army is able to do today/not do today based on that $7.5 AAV still sticking around.

I know he can go over the cap, but if he does that all the other teams have his balls in the ringer more than they already are

The massive lack of side deals makes me think GMs all learned from the Vegas draft and refused to get screwed by giving up more than just one player this time around. Perhaps but I've also kept hearing repeatedly that Francis' asking price was exorbitant and never came down. IMO it is negligent bor...

It is truly incredible the Blues do not have a SINGLE player protected this year that was protected in 2017. Not one.

WITH a Stanley Cup in there. Wow.

I don't really get why Landeskog would want to come here? The team you were on just swept us and relatively easily. I can't see the money or contract terms being so drastically different between the Blues and Avs that he'd leave for here. Makes no sense. If the terms of that Keith trade are true tha...

...This team is at a pretty big fork in the road. They could go either way depending on the moves Army is able/not able to make. Huge, huge, huge question marks right now. The right moves could have them contending for a few years... the wrong moves and this could get ugly. I can't remember an offs...

I’m surprised the relationship is this bad. Sounds like it’s over. J.R. was on NHL Network Radio this morning and the way he was talking... it's over. When a player is publicly criticizing your health staff, when you were already shopping him anyway, when he's reportedly not fitting with the locker...

If you'd told me Savard would assist on the Game 7 GWG, I would've argued against it. Ross Colton scoring it - not that surprising given what he did during the regular season. Coincidentally the only 2 "full timers" on the Bolts that didn't win it last year score the GWG 1-0 in cup winning game. I ...

Yea read that last night during the game. Sad it's come to this but it's understandable all the way around. This team is rapidly heading towards a rebuild. Trade or no we haven't had Tarasenko's production since the cup run so that's a 1st line RW we've lost. Petro is gone, so there's a top-pairing ...

Watching this series is just making me more angry the Islanders couldn’t get it done in game 7. They would have trounced Montreal. Oh well. Right there with ya. Yea, I've thought about that the last couple/3 days. Just couldn't find a way to score when they needed to. Getting your doors blown off i...

Yea I had a bad feeling when he went down the way he was in pain grabbing his knee that that was it. Sad. Thanks for the memories sir!
