Re: Blues Sign Veteran Defenseman Nate Prosser
Another good depth signing, along with Butler. Now, if The Blues have 3 defencemen hurt, they still can ice a reasonable NHL defence. He'll hep The Wolves a lot. I'd like to see them win The Calder Cup.

Re: Blues Sign Veteran Defenseman Nate Prosser
I love it. More depth, means more competition, and that's what we need. I saw when Hitch was answering questions on Twitter the other day, someone asked him what these signings meant for Ian Cole. Essentially he said (for all defensemen), it meant "Game on."

Re: Blues Sign Veteran Defenseman Nate Prosser
Robb's point about injuries stands, but I don't want any of these scrapheap scrubs dressed when the season opens. Maybe the club's gearing up to move somebody? Leopold going would open a nice amount of cap space and allow one of the young Dmen to get some NHL time. Gotta hope these re-treads are meant to take the minutes in Chicago when that happens...otherwise, a few guys haven't panned out...
