10 different GMs are in the building tonight for the game. St. Louis was mentioned by name though. I know this probably means nothing. If anything they are getting a look at Florida, but I can't help but imagine Chris Stewart on this team. No idea what he'd cost being an RFA and playing well though.

I really like Sobotka, he's very under rated.

Yeah he is a half decent player. Good effort guy. Not a big scorer though.

Anxiously awaiting "insiders" to tweet the Penguins' possible interest of the Blues' pending free agents they looked up on @CapGeek.

A deal between the blues and pens could happen. Even though the blues have Pietrangelo and shattenkirk, they really lack defensive prospects. Ian Cole was their best D man before last years draft and he isn't anything special. Redden is old and Jackman doesn't like as good as he has been before. And shattenkirk isn't a big shutdown guy.

Despres for Oshie

I'm not as high on Oshie as most. I'd rather keep Despres.

I love what Oshie brings to the game. Speed, physicality, and never gives up along the boards. To me he's that winger we have always wanted for crosby

Understandeable. Problem is that that's essentially how Boychuk was playing. Neither one has scored often. A bigger body might be more ideal. Kunitz was the perfect line mate for them.

Markstrom is looking good. Nice job with his rebound control. Panthers may have something special there

True. Florida has zero takeaways, zero giveaways after 20 minutes. Really looking to key on Bennett -- second line, Cooke -- third line, Jeffrey and Despres. Not much to look at thus far. Bennett's gotten beat along the boards, but I'd really like to see him score tonite.

Came dangerously close. Squibbed through the net mouth it looked like. Neal couldn't clean it up.

I'd like to see Bennett get a little more down and dirty along the boards. Every time he is around a board battle it looks like is just skating behind waiting for the puck to squirt out

He's got to get going. I'd say let the kid play for a few games before sending him back to the A (it's a matter of "when"). He's not physically ready and we all can see this.

How many passes can a guy possibly miss. Malkin and Letang missed as well.
