First guy on the ice for 11:30 practice, Toropchenko, and Alexandrov right with him.

Torop is trying his hardest to send a message to his elder (and superior) teammates. Hopefully a message is received and the boys at least play with some compete tomorrow.
It’s been an impressive last 24 hours for Toropchenko as far as I’m concerned.
I dont understand how you can make millions of dollars, live the life most people dream of, yet not give a shit when the time comes to perform. Some of our guys need to step the fuck up
I’d love for Toropchenko to develop into what Barbashev has been for us over the last 5-7 years.
C level material
I think he is definitely a keeper for long term bottom 6 grit.
Put a C on one and an A on the other. Kyrou needs to hustle and Thomas needs to lose some weight.
I’m going to try and focus on how great this makes Torop and Alexandrov look – not as a knock against the other guys. It’s nice to see the less touted young guys come up and make a difference on and off the ice. I hope he continues to grow and is that tough middle 6 Blues hero we all love for years to come!
Give them 10 year contracts, right now.
