As a Blues fan, I"ll say this:
1. The fans did not clamor for Schenner to be traded. We have a long history of wanting to retain our captains even if its against better judgement. I'm sure Army listened to offers but our center depth, being light as it was, probably meant Army wasn't really going to trade him unless the offer was unrefusable.
2. You are indeed correct. Montgomery was destined for the St Louis Blues.
3. Faulk, in my opinion, is the weak link on the blue line. He was a minus 9 this year with 2 goals although his assists were decent at 28 (although half were secondary). He's lost a step or two and is out of position many times.
4. If you want to beat us, just pull your goalie in the first period and play us 6 on 5.
5. We miss ROR
You ladies do a good job. I enjoy watching. I'd wish your team luck but….well, you know
That latter part of the season Blues had a very clear identity with an easily identifiable gameplan. Yet few teams managed to do much about it. And when Binner out of nowhere locks it down he is a handful. So even though Blues dont have a McJesus they have their identity and a good GM/coach tandem with a gunslinger of a goalie.
And, may I add, a beautiful home jersey with ditto logo( give me back my navy blue Pred jersey NOW)
Blues are simply a solid franchise without much blingbling and extravagancy with-em. They are Pat Maroon/Cam Jansen to me. I am supposed to dislike them, hard to dislike solid hockey culture,though
