THE BLUES HAVE NO CAP SPACE, IT WILL NEVER WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

your lineup doesnt include steen

- muffin_man


It is a 22 man roster that removes a couple of guys that aren't getting dropped off the roster. He didn't mention them in the trades he proposed to make this roster. What happens to them? They go on waivers and get claimed by another team???

I think it did include Steen. Was the 4th LWer if I recall.

Roy has been good for us this year. Our team is playing great, and really a complete team. We don't need to be making deals that drastically change our roster. It would be stupid.

And Reaves isn't a league min guy that we just shouldn't care about. He is a big part of our team.

Yeah, you are missing some players that are not going anywhere. For example, Ryan Reaves who was just signed to a 4 year extension earlier this week. And a 22 man roster.

Let's at least be realistic.

So what you are telling me is that you would keep Reaves over Vanek and Miller OK i just tried to hand you a stanley cup. But nope St. Louis Does not want it bad enough.

- mike13wilkins


We just signed Reaves to a 4 year extension. Vanek floats around in just about every single game I see him play in.

I would be more than happy to get Miller, but the Blues can win a Stanley Cup without them both. I know that they didn't bring one to Buffalo.

I am telling you to be realistic. We have one of the best teams in the NHL and are not going to be drastically changing the roster to bring in a couple of guys who will be UFA at year end.

You're telling me!

Hey, does Vancouver want to re-arrange their roster to get Vanek & Miller? No?? Don't want a cup then.

I don't know why the Caps are looking to add Halak, unless the price isn't too steep. Granted Neuvirth hasn't played much, and Holtby has been horrible, but I've seen Grubauer play, and he's been outstanding. He's kept Washington in just about every game he's played. I think this guy's the real deal. He's a heck of a goalie.

Yes I know Saint Louis will make an heroic dash to the Second round at best . I have no problem donating a whole $35 a year to a site I enjoy . Sorry you cannot afford to do so.

the deal for miller would have to be set in stone before halak is moved. there's on chance they move halak and then hope buffalo doesn't try to put the squeeze on them.
- Blue Clam


Miller would make you guys a legit Stanley Cup contender because as of right now the regular season doesnt mean anything and the pair that you havenow seems to choke it away the past couple of playoffs and I expect more of the same from the Blues if they enter the playoffs with the current 2 goalies.

If it wasn't for the Blues goalies not being able to be counted on in the playoffs then I would agree but you couldn't get past the Kings last year and you will not get past Quick and the Kings this year if you meet. As far as the Hawks go, you are taking the regular season series but the advantage the Hawks have over the Blues is that they know how to turn it up a level or 2 come playoffs time and the Blues don't reallly get how to do that.

If Miller ends up on StL, and signs an extension there...
They will win multiple Cups over the next 5-6years
And I'm ok with that
Miller deserves to have a team that can actually play defense and score a few goals in front of him

- jdfitz77


He also deserves a team that will defend him if he gets run
