"I don't care about those guys anymore."

Where do we stand vis a vis the Sharks, or the Jets?

even if you adjusted i think only a few teams end up with as many or more regulation wins.

Pretty impressive considering where things were at...a week ago

Just wait until Dahlin starts playing 20+ min regularly

Who would have guessed we’d have 4 more wins than the Blues 10 games in

Because if you sent him down he would 99.9% be claimed off waivers.

Here's my take.

So far, they're beating the teams that the should and they've lost to the teams you'd expect as well.

The win over Montreal is nice as it's divisional and Montreal has had a good start to the year.

I was afraid the momentum they got out of those last 2 games on the West Coast could be lost with the travel back and 3 day break. Luckily they managed to figure themselves out by the halfway point of the 1st and never looked back really.

Considering we are 6-4 and Mitts has 2 points in 10 games, and our special teams are both in the bottom half of the league is pretty impressive. Once Dahlin gets more games under his belt his minutes will continue to go up. Mitts is getting all the chances but just no puck luck. Was nice seeing him get the secondary assist on Pommers goal last night though.

When that line stops producing then move Okposo on to that line. As long as Housley keeps the pair of Skinner and Eichel together we’ll be alright.

Seems like a reasonable plan to me

In all seriousness, I don't think he is anywhere near the reason the Blues are in trouble. However, I do think it's a pretty clear by his stints in Colorado, Buffalo, and now St. Louis that what O'Reilly brings to the table is simply immensely overvalued.

He reminds me of Shane Doan, a guy who received a ton of accolades for doing "everything right" everywhere...except the win column.

Agreed and balanced response. That is precisely what I believe.

And sign Skinns to a Spezza type contract. $7.5 per and call it a day.
- mhp



Why does everyone want to give skinner 50 million over 7 years after 10 games in a buffalo uniform.

Jbotts isnt throwing $ around unless he is sure.
At least give him 50-60 games. Like the trade deadline.

That's how we get stuck with okposo contracts
