OLOFSOOOOOOOOON!
Seriously though, i wont cry if he starts in Rochester.
Im really hoping he gets some ice time with Jack in training camp and earns a spot.

I know we have Mitts and Dahlin to look forward to, but I want to see at least one guy who isn't a top 10 pick make this team. Olofsson, Pu, Baptiste, Guhle, Malone... give us someone.

If it happens, can I get credit for saying offer sheets out of vengeance will happen at some point?

The Calder winner was picked 15th overall


0% chance we got a top end asset.

This place is bonkers

Ok smart guy...
what are your projections for Thompson?
And I’m sure u can see i to the future & tell us all exactly how the 1st we got from them will turn out... right?

Fact is:
We didn’t get a “A” prospect

Maybe he will end up being great
But that’s not at all how he’s currently projected

You don't know the first thing about losing, rookie. You're dealing with professionals here.

I'd rather play Bailey and Baptiste instead of losing them to waivers. Waive those two. You know what you're gonna get from them. Let O'Regan center Bailey and Baptiste. At least it's fast

Like Pachs said, perhaps JBotts learned his lesson with Kane. You gotta know when to hold em, and know when to fold em.
- Powerslave


Sure, i guess it’s possible that was gonna be StLs final offer either way...
but when he mentioned in the conference call about the price going up,
it made it sound like he could’ve gotten more

I’m obviously just speculating though

the way I look at it, Olofsson is the same age as Bailey and Baptiste, who everyone expects to be NHL players at this point in their career.
There's definitely no reason why He cant be. Hoping the smaller ice surface isn't a problem for him. I have seen plenty of passes from Eichel in his tenure here that wingers didnt even see coming. All Olofsson has to do is ALWAYS expect the pass. He could be a gem. And I hate talking about potential with this team. I actually want to see us get better.
I actually think Girgensons|Erod|Bailey/Baptiste would be a formidable 4th line. Fast and chippy. Force a lot of O-zone faceoffs.

No reason to think we would have gotten more. The Blues said they were out if that happened. Writing that check might have ruined their best opportunity to move him.

Right. We have a few guys hitting the at 23-24 year-old window, time to let someone play with the big club.

I think considering that Bailey and Bap have to clear waivers to go to rochester, we have too many NHL players as it stands. Decisions will have to be made.
