  1. Joined a little late to the party, I truly believe that they'll carry Beaulieu until he's ready, which is a shame. He's terrible in every sense of the word. Sure he has an okay shot and can skate, but when you cannot read the open ice and make countless turnover's as well as are useless on the PK, get out of here please!
  2. Those are the types of moves that we need, this is a home run if he continues to build off of his impressive showing at the U-20.
  3. I would put Pettersson with the class just below Dahlin though. He's an elite talent, in the same mold of Mittelstadt, though a little on the "needs" to bulk up fast to play in the NHL. But, the hands the vision and the speed are there for Pettersson. Samuelsson has a great chance. I think he can easily be at least a healthy Bogosian, who skates and brings his body into the play. He could be the "Bogosian" we had hoped we were getting in 2014 when we made that trade.
  4. I do. Karlsson, is going to slow down into his 30's and with the salary ($11.5-$12.5) that it's going to take to get him on a 6-7 year extension it's not worth it.
  5. Well you turned Pu'ing off a Cliff into a 3 time 30 goal scorer, who has missed all but 5 games in the last 4-5 seasons. Who can skate and creates offensive zone pressure 5v5. He definitely has his warts, but for the cost of admission..it's a fine price to pay.
  6. As of now this looks about right, however there will be for sure more changes coming. I do truly believe that Botterill is the right guy for the front office going forward. He's going to get us out of the last few of TMGM's mistakes and provide us a faster more hockey sense savvy team.
  7. Two years, 3.75M-4.35M is the area I think he's getting.
  8. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to make it. But, oh "weekend warrior", please work on conditioning more than anything. You've broken down from so many varying injuries you're but the cliche of "overpaid high draft status" as there has ever been. That saying, I don't dislike you as a person or the "type" of game you play Zach. JUST STAY HEALTHY.
  9. Honestly, I am hoping Olofsson is ready sooner than later. I want someone to come in and blow the water out of the boring top six forwards. Though Sheary gives the group at least a more nuanced approach. I voted: Reinhart, Sheary, Okposo, Rodrigues for regular top six. With possibly Sobotka being a likely tip as well. I voted: Olofsson, Smith for guys I hope blow the doors off and surprise. I want nothing of Pominville, Girgensons in the top 6 ever again. I would imagine that is his natural designation if we're lining things up on paper. At this point I believe in trying Sam Reinhart at center again as much as I believe Bogosian can reignite his draft status and be a top 2 defensemen. I just DON'T want to see them waste more time when Sam does what he does well. Off the wall passing, creativity on the wing and the ability to score around the net.
  10. I really like Cozens and more specifically Kakko. I think there are some quality options after Hughes.
  11. I think it just depends on what happens this year. If the right deal comes a long to add a young piece for a cap team and we can also move on from someone, then do it. Otherwise continue to purge it and bring in additional depth. Adding as much talent as possible is the key!
  12. For NYI, the guy I feel worst for is Bailey who signed his extension with the notion he'd hopefully be playing with JT91 for the foreseeable future. However, he signed and now will likely slot in with Anders Lee with Barzal.
  13. Not any longer our Justin Falk, is a UFA. Which is great, I don't want to see his idiotic exit passes and slow skates in cement any longer.
  14. Absolutely, Scandella is the right sort of mentor for this group. The next pragmatic cast off to go should be Bogosian ?
  15. They can receive mentoring from Sobotka, Hutton and others in the room?
  16. It will be a win if we can some how move Berglund with other assets for an upgraded piece as a salary component. On WGR, Jeremy White brought up 1st, 2nd Berglund and Nylander for Skinner. I think I could be okay with this as Skinner provides speed on the wing, addition by subtraction and to be honest the fact that Nylander didn't skate at the camp and questions being dodged around him, proves he's out of favor. He'll be traded by the deadline IMO.
  17. I don't want to fire him, but this trade sucks. The salary involved, average meh depth, having to take back both. I get changing the room, but blah.
  18. w.e it's over with, we can move on now. I hope Botterill gets asked. WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
  19. I mean Allen has to basically become the Islander goal tending. They'd have to lose Tarasenko, Schwartz, Parayko and Pietrangelo for the season.
  20. We can now officially be called a perpetual whipping post as well.
  21. At this point, I'd add a pick onto Bogosian or any one of these contracts just to get them out of here.
  22. If the Blues finish in the top 10 next year, the league should fold in on itself like black hole.
  23. That was perfectly said. I'm hoping we can find a positive solution out of at least one of these contracts.
