Re: Ej and McClement traded to AVs

At this time Shattenkirk is a defenseman, that is not all that great at actual defense. I think with EJ's size gone, Polak's long term employment in St. Louis looks good.

Re: Ej and McClement traded to AVs

Let's not assume that they're finished just yet. I can see a one or two more trades going down, in the form of at least Boyes getting a ticket out of town. I bet some team in the EC (cough Rangers) overpays for Boyes. I have to think Boyes or MacDonald is hitting the road. In my dreams, they unload...

Re: Ej and McClement traded to AVs

Do the Blues make this trade if they would have signed a little more offense during the offseason? Looking at these trades and the off-season, money is clearly a factor. Everyone they are trading have higher salaries than the guys coming in. The ownership apparently doesn't/didn't have the money fo...

Re: Bergie Vs. Sendins?

Who knows what his ceiling is, but I wouldn't be too quick to get rid of him. The guy is 22, never played a lick in the AHL, only in his third season, and plays on the cursed Blues. I don't think he even played above the second-tier league in Sweden (but I may be wrong about that). If he was a young...

Re: This offseason

There was some talk that Checketts was requiring any new investor (or investors) to inject some capital to "improve the business." Said another way, simply buying a portion of the team is not enough, you have to kick in some additional money. Whether this applies to player salaries, other aspects of...

Re: The Jaden Schwartz Thread (2010 1st Rounder -- 14th overall)

I'm guessing at least two.

If he makes the Team Canada World Jrs team (he was the only non-major Canadian junior A player in camp), I imagine there will be a buzz about him after the tournament.

The Tarasenko pick has overshadowed this pick, but this is a guy to watch.

Re: Trade concept

I think the Blues long term plan should be getting their RFAs/UFAs in order, and going hard after Brad Richards this summer. He is EXACTLY what this team needs. The Blues look to be set with goaltending, defensive depth, and lines 2-4 depth. The need an offensive engine that can play center, will ma...
