And with the 6th overall pick the Blues select

[11WSChamps]

What good does a 6th position pick make with some of the dead weight bad salary contracts still here?

Well … are you in win now mode?

Are you?

Good point. They should probably just fold the franchise.

Nah.

What would some of you guys do all day without nothing else to do?

Blues are getting close to Stenberg territory

Blues are getting close to Stenberg territory

I would have to agree with this, certainly better option than Texier, who knows maybe Torop and Joseph as well.

Bolduc has 1 goal in his last 5, getting about 13 shifts, 11 minutes a night. Bolduc has benefitted certainly with a being on a very good team but so far hes what the Blues said he was, top 9 forward getting Joseph or Toropchenko minutes. Simply put the Blues were not going to extend Bolduc when the Blues are already getting contributions from Neighbours and Snuggerud who will also both get big raises plus Holloway. Its not that complicated.
In my view the Blues werent getting better than a Logan Mailloux type of player in exchange for Bolduc.

This board is invaded this season by cardinals curmudgeons. I think they all shifted their hopes from a cardinals season to ride the bandwagon of the blues. definitely welcome, but man there's more negativity here than ever.

las year I would say the Blues were 7-11 team the whole years. I was hoping they moved to the 5-9 this year but it doesn't appear so, so far. To go into full panic mode is pretty ridiculous. The Blues needed a hot start if they wanted to contend for a top 4 spot in the West. They aren't going to get that. But to say they aren't a possible playoff team is idiotic this early. But you can't compete with the trolls. When the team loses they state their opinion as fact. When they win they shift their shtick to something else.

How many of them have said they would stop posting here if xyz happened and when it did, kept posting here?


This team doesn't have a star player but it does have international hockey level talent. If Holloway wasn't off to his cold start, where would the team be? Apparently he's top 50 in goal chances in the league and he only has 3 points. That kind of anomaly shouldn't continue.

I simulated the data about 10 times and I came up with the Blues at #2 selecting Keaton Verhoeff. That’s likely to happen right?

Given that I don’t see Verhoeff becoming that true #1 that we really need, it’s probably more realistic than you think.

Come on now, that was an easy assumption...I should have been more specific. Imagine a couple of Stenbergs, a Lindstein, a Dvorsky and a Pekarcik...throw in a Harenstam and a Korotky, I mean a couple of them have to bare out, yes???

[ManitobaBlues]

Blues should pick at 6th should be Ryan Roobroec or Marcus Nordmark
