2024-2025 Blues Multi-Purpose Thread.

Dvorsky not among the Black Aces. Alexandrov, Schueneman, and Ellis. I’m not sure what to make of this, but I can’t really say that I disagree.

I dont' think there was any chance that playing Dvorsky was every going to be the best option as in injury replacement. I guess they aren't giving out token spots for his 'education' then. He'll have next year's AHL season to force his way up into the NHL.

Curious question, since I admittedly don't know much about the subject: how many Black Aces are we allowed to have on the roster?

I would be pretty shocked if we see Holloway again barring a long run here but would love to be wrong. I could have missed something but only thing I've seen was that Monty said he was doing some light stick work on his own prior to the Blues heading out on their last road trip of the regular season. It has been pretty hush hush other than that with a lot of conflicting speculation out there, but hope I'm wrong and he is closer to a potential return, I just feel like if he was actually skating even on his own we likely would have heard about it.

Yeah, I mean, I’m sure JR, DeFranks, Korac etc aren’t camped out at Centrene at all hours and it’s possible Holloway has gotten in a skate or two they don’t know about but it seems likely that’d be something that’d get out. Someone would see it. My gut tells me he’s not close. Perhaps not completely ruled out if they can make it far but not close.

There is no roster limit in the playoffs.

Good to know. So, we could legitimately have as many Black Aces on our roster practicing as we want? Thank you!

Yep. Theoretically, we could call up everyone from Springfield that’s on an NHL contract (so no Peca, Luff etc). We won’t but we could.
