2024-2025 Blues Multi-Purpose Thread.

I agree, between the cap increasing significantly and Saad terminating his contract, we have plenty of cap flexibility to handle a Krug return. And if Krug does return, I think you are also right, we'll move Leddy, I think it's plausible we even move Leddy at this trade deadline.

My surprise when I saw that is kind of similar to Leddy's injury and return. It's a combo of NHL doesn't really compel teams to divulge much on injuries like say the NFL, and then our media doesn't really push as hard as some other markets might.

if Krug is good enough to return he would finally fit into the d-core properly as a 3rd pair offensive specialist, his skill set is something the team is clearly missing

If, if he's healthy, he might be able to provide some value as the PP QB and have heavily sheltered assignments. The version we get back might not be healthy or back to full strength, who knows what type of player he'll be when he returns. And kind of like Brian said, he may attempt a return, and it may not be successful, and that means LTIRetirement.

I agree though, we are in a spot where we can have a PP QB sheltered on a 3rd pair.

I'm probably one of the few around here who actually misses the little guy with gumption. Krug is a fun player when he's healthy and playing up to his potential. And always plays with heart and a chip on his shoulder, which this team needs more of. I'm rooting for him to make a comeback because no one wants to end their career like that.

and, coming from people who know him just a little, he is apparently a really good guy in real life
