I Don't Get the Blues

St. Louis Blues

St. Lou is in hardcore rebuilding mode. About all they added this offseason was Nashville's goaltending controversy. Legace will be the number 1 goaltender at the start of the season, and he will put up fine numbers (because Manny Legace is a fine regular season goaltender). He will get hurt though... maybe more then once. That's when Mason will try to assert himself. He may do it. He may not. Either way Mason's arrival basically makes neither of these goaltenders a sure thing. If you're thinking of drafting the Blues goalie then one of three things are true:
1. You think Legace is a really cool name.
2. You missed out on a goalie run or two.
3. Its late in the draft and you want to take a flyer

If you insist on drafting a goalie from the Blues then, like Colorado, you probably need both.

And with that our offseason wrapups are complete. (Exhales).

Stay tuned for Offseason Awards...
