The St. Louis Blues are expected to trade goaltender Jordan Binnington this offseason. With Joel Hofer ready and able to take over as the team's number-one goalie, Binnington has found himself near the top of almost all then insider's offseason trade boards. The Blues are retooling on the fly and are expected to use Binnington to try and find a top-nine forward who can step into the team's lineup on a regular basis next season. The veteran goaltender had a down season last year, but once again...
Head coach Craig Berube was fired on May 13th , after meeting with the Toronto Maple Leafs general manager, John Chayka, and executive advisor of hockey operations, Mats Sundin. The group met on the weekend, before GM Chayka would pull the trigger and restart the team's hunt for a coach after Berube's two seasons behind Toronto's bench. Once thought to be a premier coaching prospect in the NHL after winning a Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues in 2019, Berube's stock has f...
Manon Rheaume is a name that is forever etched in Tampa Bay Lightning history. On September 23, 1992 (back when the Tampa Tribune was just 25 cents) she appeared in a pre-season game for the Lightning against the St. Louis Blues, stopping seven of nine shots in one period of play. Her debut marked the first time a woman participated in one of the four major North American sports leagues.
Rheaume would appear in two games for the Atlanta Knights that season, posting a 0-1-1 record with a 6...

According to plugged-in insider Michael Russo, the Minnesota Wild offered the St. Louis Blues Jesper Wallstedt and Danila Yurov at the deadline for Robert Thomas. The Blues rejected the offer.

For everyone who wondered why it took so long to fire Berube after the GM hire of 10 days ago, this is going to be an interminable wait.
Colton Parayko didn't want to join the Buffalo Sabres, what about the Ottawa Senators. Reports have surfaced that both teams have been in contact to discuss the parameters of a Parayko trade, but as we know, his no-trade protection could be a big hurdle. Parayko, 32, is signed through the 2030 season at $6.5 million AAV, and holds a no-trade clause that doesn't go down to just 15 teams for two more summers. Bruce Garrioch: The Citizen reported that the Senators kicked tires on Colton Parayko; ...
After a short playoff run, the Edmonton Oilers should be in for a busy offseason. The Oilers' roster is simply not strong enough right now, and they have multiple needs to address during the summer because of it. One specific area that the Oilers must improve this offseason is their goaltending. Tristan Jarry has not lived up to expectations since being acquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins, while Connor Ingram is a better fit as a backup. Thus, it would be shocking if the Oilers don't try to ...
It is no secret that the St. Louis Blues are open to moving their top players. Due to this, Pavel Buchnevich is certainly a player to keep an eye on during the offseason. Due to this, let's take a look at three teams that could look to acquire Buchnevich during the offseason if he is willing to waive his no-trade clause. Chicago Blackhawks The Blackhawks need to improve their top six immensely this offseason. Due to this, a player like Buchnevich could have the potential to grab th...

The deal will pay him an AAV of $7.75 million when it kicks in next season, The Athletic’s Jeremy Rutherford reported. HOLLO-STAY Dylan Holloway has agreed…
Dylan Holloway just completed his second season with the St. Louis Blues, but we've learned today that there will be five more years to come, as he and the team have agreed on a massive extension.

Dylan Holloway made his position clear on the St. Louis Blues when he shared his thoughts on his upcoming free agency.
"It was kind of wild two years ago," Holloway said, referencing the offer sheet that brought him from Edmonton to St. Louis in the summer of 2024. "But obviously I'm very thankful to be a Blue and I want to be a Blue for a long time."
The 24-year-old forward becomes a restricted free agent on July 1 when his two-year, $4.58 million contract expires, and St. Louis is expect...
The date is April 24, 2015. The Minnesota Wild went into Scottrade Center, recovered from an early goal-against from then-superstar Vladimir Tarasenko, and methodically hung four goals on the St. Louis Blues. Marco Scandella, Nino Niederreiter, Mikko Koivu, and Charlie Coyle were your scorers that d...
St. Louis Blues forward Jordan Kyrou is a prime trade candidate to watch during the offseason. The skilled forward has been in the rumor mill for a long time now, and it is clear that he could use a change of scenery. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Kyrou during the offseason now. Detroit Red Wings Adding another top-six winger this offseason should be one of the Red Wings' top priorities. Because of this, it would not be surprising in the slig...
With their 5-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche in Game 4, the Los Angeles Kings have been eliminated from the playoffs. With this, Anze Kopitar's amazing career is officially over, as he is hanging up the skates. Now that Kopitar's time in Los Angeles is over, the Kings should be working very hard to land a top-six center this offseason. Due to this, let's look at three centers the Kings could target during the summer. Robert Thomas, St. Louis Blues When it comes to potential ...
The St. Louis Blues are very likely trading goaltender Jordan Binnington this summer. The veteran goalie is entering the final season of his contract, and with Joel Hofer proving this season he's capable of leading the charge, the Blues will continue their ongoing retool, moving on from Binnington. The Richmond Hill, ON native is signed for next season at $6 million AAV, and owns a 10-team no-trade list. At 32 years old, there's certainly something to play for next season as this will likely b...
Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman kept it real at his latest press conference, stating to the media attending that his hockey team hasn't reached expectations because 'they need better players'. A huge statement from Yzerman, who is certainly on the hot seat this summer to turn things around in Motown. Yzerman's going to be very aggressive on the free-agent market and the trade market, and after acquiring Justin Faulk from the St. Louis Blues before the trade deadline, he'll need...

Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… The Pittsburgh Penguins closed the regular season on Tuesday night with a wild 7-5 loss to the St. Louis Blues. It was more or less an exhibition game for the Penguins, who iced a lineup of primarily depth players and had nothing to gain or lose […]
Pregame It’s a very Game 82 lineup for the Penguins; there’s no Crosby, Malkin, Rust, Chinakhov, Rakell, Karlsson, Letang, Wotherspoon or Girard as all the top-6 forward/top-4 defenders set their sights on the playoffs. Recent signee Jake Livanavage makes his NHL debut and Rafael Harvey-Pinard makes his Penguin debut after toiling away all season in […]
Talk about the game with Pens fans here!
Few people had a closer seat to Chris Pronger’s tenure with the Edmonton Oilers than Kevin Lowe. As the general manager who acquired the hulking defenceman from the St. Louis Blues on Aug. 3, 2005, only to trade him 11 months later to the Anaheim Ducks, he was front and centre for all of the…
That's Wild
The Minnesota Wild rest just about every single one of their good offensive players, and then even more than that, for Monday night's game against the St. Louis Blues. And no surprise, they ended up losing the game by a score of 6-3 without those players. [StarTribune]

As most of you know, I was lucky enough to be invited to attend Winter Warmup as a reporter. Last year, I used that experience to write several season previews. Due to the late start of the top 20 prospect series (caused by waiting for Brendan Donovan to be traded), my Winter Warmup stories have […]
