I read a BLues fan tweet online that they were pumped that "that was all they had to give up for the best 2 way center in the NHL even on the worst team in the NHL."

So.... they have high expectations.

And when GMTM traded for Kane Buffalo fans were pumped to have a scoring winger while Jets fans said good riddance get the F out of here.

Armstonr said Botteril was fixated on TAge.

That was most likely afetr being told that Thomas and Kyrou were off the table.

I'm still waiting for the Quote that says Botterill thought Tage was the best St Louis Prospect.

He was the best prospect they could get.

XGMTM was fixated on fasching

He showed flashes early then faded the more he played. Felt a bit lost out there sometimes. Some more time in minors may not be worst thing for him.

the St Louis sharing a minor league team was a mess though. Didn't the coach get fired?

1) not on his list Panarin
2) nino I cant trust to be jacks winger
3) stone will cost a boat load and I really don’t want to give up everything for him


It seems skinner is the only one

Dreger already said this whole thing was a fallacy. There was no truth to wanting to play in LA, CHI, BOS or whatever.

Who would you compare his skating to ? And were you guys frustrated that with such a big body he doesn’t get involved ?

Why don't you just ask him if he's a bust?

Last year was transition between Rockford and Ft Worth. Basically had leased players. Not sure if got fired due to performance or that Blues wanted their guy down there.

You’re not getting me too excited here but Thanks lol

I’m hoping we develop him more and he can become a good top 6 forward and not a 3rd liner

Even if ours is top 15, SJ and StL won't be. I still doubt whoever has the 1st pick will trade it. I can't recall anyone trading the 1st pick.
