Difficult roadtrip coming up

[Pierre McGuire]

Would seem to be the perfect time to change it up with a move of some sort. This team is terrible. Army needs to try and inject some life into it.

big trade coming

Not sure a big trade is coming but as a fan I expect something to be done tomorrow or Monday before this trip

[mph6689new]

Sure seems that the players don’t have what it takes to dig out. Feels like even some of them are waiting for the move.

Nothing gonna happen

I can't see anything happening. Tonights game was gross. After the first 10 minutes it was another 20 before it was even watchable. I might be a bit excessive in how much I can't stand kessels play, (could be more a product of both him and tucker together) but the only real space the Blues can make a move that would be seemingly cheap enough to pull off would be to acquire a 3rd pairing defensemen. I don't really know who would be in the market for the Blues forwards that we could even offload someone for a shakeup.

If anything, a long road trip is welcome. Needed to get points tonight. 7 of 10 or 8 of 10 sounds a heck of a lot better than 6 of 10 on that homestand. But road trips can bring teams together by pulling them away from distraction. Even if the Blues went on a run here, there's no evidence they are mentally strong enough for that to galvanize their home game. Last year my running joke was the Blues couldn't win at home. Way to go getting rid of Country Roads. Well this year they really can't win at home. 3 wins - 5 regulation losses - 4 OTL losses all at home. 3-4 on the road.

I predict the big move is Skinner replaces Walker for a game.
Total head scratcher if that doesn't work....

Have they tried Parayko at Center?
Maybe Buch and Hofer can switch?
I'm just spit ballin here....

Blues have the worst third pairing defense in the league.

Don't have one forward who can go into the corner and win a puck battle, not [redacted]' one.

Soft is an understatement describing this team.

C'mon, getting rid of Country Roads was overdue. You don't play lullaby-like songs at a hockey game. Need music with energy. Like AC-DC. Not freaking John Denver. Gag.

You're correct.

Also, is there a softer top 4 d-men group in the league than the Blues?
44 hits combined.
Fowler only has 2.
Opposing teams have zero fear entering our zone, going into the corners, and setting up shop in front of the net.

Might be good for the team

Neighbours will help but not the answer I’m looking for.

Tied with NSH for the 2nd worst winning percentage in the entire league. I just never saw this coming.

NSH fans are prolly saying the same thing

looking at both rosters, way too much talent to be this bad
