He's getting on the older side, but I hate to see ANY former Blues join the Avs. Yuck!

Ian Cole @ age 37 going to the Blackhawks @ 4 Million for the year. Surely he plays in 1000 games. Excuse me 4.75 million.

Other than PIM’s, he doesn’t add much.

For a jag who couldn't even make the Blues that guy has had one heck of a career. I remember people saying that guy would be out of the league like 10 years ago. Then he won the Cup!

VGK signed R. Andersson for 8 x $8.5m and are now $5.125m over the cap with only 17 players signed. Going to be interesting to follow them this summer. Has to be Hertl, Stone or both moving on.

Re: All Things UFA today
Schwartz is a good character vet for the Lanche but the Blues dont need another LW and certainly not a 33 yr old.TruBlueFan_1970 wrote: ↑01 Jul 2026 11:47 amSchwartz is another LW. Hasn't everyone been saying that if we try to sign a top-9 forward, it should be a RW? That's my view of what's right about the picture.

That's still allowed, right?

Well Toronto got their goaler of course he's 37 and coming off one of his statistically worse seasons and will now be playing in front of that defense.

How will history remember the Matt ( don’t call me Phil) Kessel era?
