Keeping cap space to resign Petro and Schenn

I think this is the most likely course the Blues take this year. Maybe adding a Top 9 guy or a LD instead of a RD but overall pretty good.

not even needed look at them putting Kyrou/Kostin in the lineup instead. Instead of Elliott just look to bring up Husso if he doesn't work out you can look at getting a guy like Neuvirth. Hamonic is bit too much imo Bortuzzo does just fine.

Sundqvist on 3rd line with Kyrou and Maroon.

I disagree on Borts. Solid blocker but he makes me cringe every time he touches the puck. Don't think Hamonic is necessarily yhe answer though.

Bozak should stay on the 3rd line with Kyrou and Maroon. It's basically what we have now with Kyrou replacing Thomas. Personally, id rather buyout Steen, move Perron to 4th line and move Kostin to 2nd line. He can give Schwartz and Thomas much needed space and size

Bortz isn't the puck mover.......Dunn has been until they moved him up with Pietrangelo, which was bad because he is a puck mover. Bad thing is we have 4 puck movers. Parayko Bouwmeester Pietrangelo and Dunn.

Borts doesn't have to be a "puck mover" he just doesnt have to dick up when he does have the puck on his stick. Unfortunately, that's a pretty tall task for him. Very similar as Jackman at the end of his Blues tenure. When he needed to move the puck on the outlet pass, it was cringeworthy at best.
