Saint Louis has 54 points in the paint against Georgia 😳😳😳
I can tell you how this is going to go: Vrana. Would not remotely surprise me to see Drouin go 2023 Vrana with the #STLBlues (10 goals in 20 games). Fans will see flashes and be excited for him next season and the best move for the Blues will be offloading him in off-season.
For the anti-tanking crowd, every team to win the Stanley Cup since 2010 has at least one top five pick in their lineup: CHI: Kane, Toews BOS: Seguin LAK: Doughty, Gaborik, PIT: Crosby, Malkin, MAF, Kessel WSH: Ovi, Backstrom STL: Pietrangelo TBL: Stamkos, Hedman COL: MacKinnon, Makar, Landeskog VGK: Eichel, Pietrangelo FLA: Barkov, Ekblad, Seth Jones, Reinhart
Jonathan Drouin, acquired by STL, is a middle six playmaking winger. Generally not a puck-dominant player but took that to a whole new level in Long Island. Didn't help that he went from shooting 20% to 4%. (Another) fresh start for this player. #STLBlues
While many (rightfully) will remember Brayden Schenn for his dagger goal in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup, one goal of his that will always stick for me is this one His amazing play to hit the empty net in Game 4 to ice the only Blues SCF home win #stlblues
