The St. Louis Blues can make a lot of big moves if they want to
Scott Maxwell of Daily Faceoff: Jeff Marek was on Daily Faceoff Live talking about the St. Louis Blues and what they might be thinking leading up to the trade deadline. They have many directions they can go.
“But we’ve all heard the names. If Robert Thomas is on the market, watch out. For me, find the team that can’t use one of the best playmakers in the NHL, period. So we’ll hear a lot about Jordan Kyrou, and we’ll hear about Faulk, and we’ll probably hear about Jordan Binnington, and I’d wonder about Colton Parayko.”
I mean, that whole blue line. As much as we picked the goaltending this year, and make no mistake, the goalies were tough to hit, but that blue line for them was terrible this season. That now has to be Exhibit A for Doug Armstrong.”
