Sad about Bolduc? Thank Adam Jiricek's knees!

[Sunny's Teeth]

Anyone remember Naugles.
Had many a drunk taco night at that place when I was younger….

I live near what I think is the last Naugles (and the original maybe too) … it’s still fantastic. I bought a trucker hat recently.

The one I went to was on McCausland down from the HiPointe theatre.
God, it’s been closed for 30 years or so…

Of course! Naugles in O’Fallon after a great night at the beer blast (and live band) at the Pit Stop in Wentzville.

Great times!

You can still get that fantastic Naugle burger at Del Taco

Where are you finding Del Taco now? When I visit my son in Tempe, AZ I make it a point to make a couple trips there. Can't find one in StL.

Del Taco is all over Southern California. I think they ‘kind of’ took over Naugles, but there’s some strange legalities there.

The ‘Naugle’ burger at Del Taco is no where near as good as it was in the ‘80’s. In fact, I will never order it again.

But the real double Naugles burger, or whatever it was called, was great hangover food.

Interesting point.
For me. It was clear from the way he was being dogged by management. Neighbours/ Schenn didn't like him and he would go.

And he would go cheap. Because if army doesn't value something. He doesn't care.

As for Taco talk.
The fact this type of trolling is okay with moderators. Speaks volumes.

This is so confusing, of course i have this Green Grass moron on block but im really bored today so i sat down to try to decipher this.

Bolduc was picked at like #17 right, he wasnt "Top 5" but losing Bolduc is now the end of the world?

I like Bolduc a lot i think hes a scorer in the NHL but here are some stats:



AHL 8gs 27 pts in 54 AHL games
NHL '23-24 25 GP 5g 4as with 3gs coming in 7 games in April
NHL '24-'25 72 GP 19g 17as with 5gs in his first 42 games and 14 goals in his last 30 games

A great young forward prospect but you would think we traded Brett Hull for a bag of pucks.... wow

Smellie is SO dramatic,,,,,,,,,, he has to have his "Hey, look at me" post every couple of hours!

Let me connect the dots for you more clearly.

1. Blues need an elite RHD. All teams do--if you want to win a Cup.
2. Elite RHD are taken TOP 5 in the draft (e.g. Pietrangelo).
3. Blues will NEVER EVER get a TOP 5 pick because Army does not want one -- even though he needs it. Blues teams try very very hard to select 15 and above.
4. Blues will NEVER EVER be able draft an elite RHD.
5. To land an elite RHD, the Blues will have to "roll the dice" with high risk players like Jiricek and Mailloux. They have elite skills, but most teams don't want to take the risk.
6. The Jiricek 2024 Round 1 pick was a failure. Anyone that went to prospect camp saw that.
7. Armstrong entered desperation mode to find the elite RHD.
8. Desperate Armstrong traded BOLDUC for Mailoux. Montreal got our most proven prospect and most tough winger, and we got Montreal's 3rd or 4th-best RHD with a history of personal issues.
9. For the future, the Blues possess another high risk player, and our previous best prospect is now in Canada.
10. BOLDUC Jerseys just went to Hell and Goodwill.
11. You may want to hold off on that Snuggerud Jersey. Desperate Army still needs an elite 2C afterall. Just put your own name on the new Blues jersey.

But other than these ugly dots, there is nothing to be mad about per Harry Deals.

What’s not to love??

As far as the trash taco talk, I have to give some love to good ol Jack n the Box tacos. Not so much anymore but there was a time I’d pound like 8 of those in one sitting. It’s also good to get some fries with them. It just fits

So again Bolduc was a nobody #17 that was dealt so who cares thats the logic correct? A team cannot win with Bolduc bc he was taken outside of the top 5 so wisely Army dealt him as soon as possible for the coveted big young RHD that who knows where he would have been taken.
