GDT #47: Blues @ Wild| 6:00 pm CT | NBCSN, 101 ESPN

Krug is undersized and for some reason it seems like the Western conference is stacked with bigger players who take advantage of Krug's lack of size. The last two games Krug playing hurt shows. He's trying to play defense while avoiding big impact contact - or at least that what it looks like - and he's skating slower right now. Prior to these past two - some games he's looked great. Others, like when the Blues play Vegas, he gets crushed over and over and over again.

The Blues' heavy game manhandled Krug for much of The Stanley Cup Finals. He should be paired with a big LD. Unfortunately, Parayko is a RD. Certainly not good to have a Dunn-Krug pairing.
