Allen has to go. Period. Another DA mistake that will cost the Blues to rid themselves of him.

Berglund and Sobotka might be movable. Need to do it.

I can live with Steen on the third line, you can only dump so many bad contracts in a year so he's gonna be back anyway.

It's a good D they have, but a chip may have to go to get the front better.

For sake of creativity, DA should consider anybody else on this team but Schwartz to be in play.

But in the end, it's still DA finger printing the "new" Blues. This makes little sense unless he is willing to fess up.

Last thing is how ready Kyrou and Thomas and Husso are to come up. I am skeptical of the Blues evaluation of these guys because of all of Army's contracts in place blocking their path.
