Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: The Blues have three games before the NHL trade deadline. Last month Blues GM Doug Armstrong said their championship window might be a year or two away, and that they were going to protect their “good young pieces.”
Armstrong thinks they are a top-ten team, but not a leading contender.
The Blues don’t want to go all-in on a rental, but that doesn’t mean they won’t look to add one for the right price.
Available rental wingers include Evander Kane, Patrick Maroon, Rick Nash and Michael Grabner.
