[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1897545, member: 3916"] Being a life long Blues fan ever since they were granted an expansion franchise back in 1967 , it seems odd to not read about playoff scenarios regarding the Blues this season.........I will follow the playoff's as a leisurely interested fan , with my main interest being who the Blues draft and what moves they make before the start of next season...... I would think that Doug Armstrong gets an A or even an A + for his moves at the trade deadline...............numerous draft picks and a plethora of prospects acquired facing a tight salary cap has amazed me.....I love the waiver pickup of Kapanen and the trade for Vrana and Blais that has sparked the team with an uptick in goals here at the end of the season........ Don't think I would classify this as a total rebuild , but with the defense and special teams needing major help, it's more than a reload , at least to me.........The Blues still have some contracts handcuffing Armstrong from doing even more ......The contracts with no trade clauses worries me , as does signing Leddy instead of Perron before this season even started......... It would be awesome if the Blues overcame the lotto odds and got the # 1 pick , but I will not hold my breath.......Tonight is the final game to an otherwise lackluster season and I'm ready to see what the future brings.....JMHO [/QUOTE]
