Off-season plan

Team: 2023-24 St. Louis Blues

Initial Creation Date: Mar. 24, 2023

Published: Mar. 24, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

1. Draft 2 way center, a scoring winger and a Defenseman. I think the best would be to draft a 2 way center with the top 10 pick. I like Cristall and Sale but if we can get Zimmer or Heidt it's okay if we pass on them. Danielson or Dvorsky seems like a rarer type of player to acquire. This might mean Bolduc moves to the wing down the road but that is okay with me.

2. We need a guy that can play 3C if Buch goes to the wing or there is an injury. Ideally a 1 year deal for cap flexibity moving forward.I chose Haula. Also added Tyler Motte as a depth forward. He still gives me nightmares from that Vancouver series in the bubble lol. Can certainly Move Buch to center, Blais into the top 9 and Haula to the 4th line

3. I hope they can change the defense a bit but I don't think it happens realistically. I would love a Leddy buy out to bring in Graves or Gavirkov but that does not seem like something Doug Armstrong would do. oh well. Perunovich needs to make an impact next year.

Hopefully we are competitive next year and push for the playoffs but if notthey can acquire more assets at the deadline if . They are building a solid pool of young players with Thomas, Kyrou, Bolduc, Snuggerud, Hofer and the 3 1sts so I think the Blues are heading in the right direction
