Motor City Mullets

Let me start by saying that I haven’t watched much of the Olympics thus far, but apparently according to some - RayGun is gelling well with EP40…

I honestly get the impression Trocheck (judging from his numbers, my limited viewing time of watching him play, and the fact that he's on the Olympic roster) he's just more than marginally better than Copp.

Agreed...The Blues really have no reason to move Thomas unless there's a drastic overpayment which I doubt Yzerman would do...Trocheck on the other hand seems ripe for leaving Broadway and with 3 seasons left under contract he won't be just a rental - however unless he uses his 'Modified No-Trade Clause' to restrict some rivals the bidding war for his services could be hefty.

I've been singing AlJo's praises for a while...IMHO he's becoming our version of former NHL'er Niklas Hjalmarsson.

Thomas would be a great addition - however I'm certain the Blues have no reason to move him considering he's young and has 5 more seasons under a nice contract...I'm thinking EP40 still has that potential to regain that 80 plus pts touch with a new zip code and even though that contract is an albatross we have the cap space and hopefully by taking it all it'll reduce the cost to get him.

EP40 has been rumored ever since Hughes was sent packing...We're probably 1 of a handful of teams that could absorb his full cap hit...Not sure what Vancouver would want in return - it likely won't be cheap, but for a guy who's capable of 70 plus pts it might be worth it considering it seems somewhat rare to find guys with that ability to hit UFA, or are available via trade...Wonder if any of our 'Swedish Mafia' on our current and past roster have any inside info, or opinion on the guy...Seems like he could use a change of scenery.

I'm thinking St Louis is gonna demand likely more than what Yzerman may be willing to send back...I'd say Thomas is of equal value to Larkin - they won't likely settle for 'potential', but rather have something more that's proven at the NHL level.

What if the Blues wanted Danielson, Kasper, or Finnie instead of Bear?

Cot? Was he some sort of superstitious type, felt he needed to be punished by sleeping downstairs in a rather meager way, or was that for his Vietnamese side puzzy? Was there a jug for urine and feces too? Strange - he was a primary reason for getting here.

Great night with Feds #91 rightfully hung in the rafters...Found this interesting - Shanny sitting with Steve.

From what little I know he appears to be another Copp/Compher clone.

Y'all still home-ohs - especially Jimmy...
