Team: 2023-24 St. Louis Blues

Initial Creation Date: Jun. 27, 2023

Published: Jun. 27, 2023

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

The Philly media is reporting that Hayes is still coming to STL but it does not fit with anything that Armstrong has been saying since February. So... why? It made sense through the lens that Philly needs to get rid of Hayes and the Blues need to get rid of Krug, but I don't understand this move at all.

Goals For: 263 (16th of 32), Goals Against: 301 (27th of 32)

Even at a 3.5-4m cap hit Hayes as 3C isn't solving any of the defensive problems with this team. 3 declining years where he has NTC. Even if we got him for free it seems like adding another headache.

FWIW I didn't understand the Sanheim inclusion either, Briere would be fist pumping if he can get out from that $50m over 8 years of mostly rebuilding, and with a first rounder?!

Does Armstrong has an obsession with collecting immovable contracts?
