Blues are still no better than 5th in the division...no chance at the playoffs, unless they make further improvements like adding Nikishin.

With Kyrou's departure, we really have only one player with a chance at 30 goals. Snuggerud...I envison the Blues offense to be atrocious...Hofer better get a shutout every night.

mctavish

2) Which Young player do you think will have a break out season?
dvorsky

3) How may 20 and 30 goal scorers will we have this year?
8 20 goal 1 30

4) what will be the pecking order of the central this year?
Dallas/Mild/Blues/Avs/Utah/Nashville/Hawks/Jets (this is reckless optimism but i see one of dallas mild avs taking a pooper for half the seasons and Utah or Blues taking that spot)

5) do the blues make the playoffs and if so how far do they make it?
Yes but I see them losing unless they get themselves out of the central matchup. I will still say 2nd round for reckless optimism.

5 questions to the asylum

Bored waiting for the season


1) which player will get the first hattrick of the year?

I'm going with Snuggy.

2) Which Young player do you think will have a break out season?

Lindstein.

3) How may 20 and 30 goal scorers will we have this year?

Barring injury -
Snuggerud and Holloway should hit 30.
Thomas, MacTavish, McMichael, and Neighbours should hit 20.
Buchnevich should be close.
Dvorsky is probably a year away.


4) what will be the pecking order of the central this year?

Minnesota will make a move to take over the #1 spot.
Colorado and Dallas battle for second and third.
Utah right behind them.
Winnipeg and St Louis are a notch behind.
Nashville and Chicago bringing up the rear.


5) do the blues make the playoffs and if so how far do they make it?

If they make it, it will be as a wild card team and lose in the first round.
