Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
After being relatively close to winning for the last few votes, Ixan Henderson won the vote for the 16th prospect pretty handily. Both polls I ran in fact weren’t really contests at all. I am been pretty vocal in wondering if Henderson would be higher if not for his current injury scare. I don’t think […]
The Boston Bruins checked in on one of the biggest names available ahead of the NHL trade deadline, but the price tag from the St. Louis Blues is not cheap by any means. According to insider Jimmy Murphy of RG.org , Boston was hit with an enormous asking price for star center Robert Thomas, making a potential blockbuster deal very complicated with their current situation. Blues demand massive package for Robert Thomas Murphy reported that the Blues’ asking price from the Bruins included to...
While there is still a relatively small sample size, we’ve played enough Spring Training games to begin to get an idea of what players are impressing and which ones aren’t. In my attempt to be a more positive person (work in progress), I’ll ask the question who has been the most impressive player during St. […]
The first huge shoe (skate) to drop from the St. Louis Blues sell-off will apparently be defenseman Colton Parayko. A report from insider Darren Dreger of TSN has the 6'6" defender going to the Buffalo Sabres. Colton Parayko is being traded to the Buffalo Sabres, pending player approval, per @DarrenDreger . pic.twitter.com/ULIHwhpVKI — PuckEmpire (@puckempire) March 4, 2026 Parayko does have a full no-trade clause, so the deal is pending the player's approval.

Vegas Golden Knights are a team to watch leading up to Friday afternoon's trade deadline, as they're in talks with multiple teams to acquire a new starting goaltender. After signing Carter Hart this season, and riding Adin Hill and Akira Schmid for most of the year, the Golden Knights are looking to acquire one of two big-name goaltenders. Vegas are in talks with the Florida Panthers regarding Sergei Bobrovsky, and they're talking to the St. Louis Blues regarding Jordan Binnington. The Golden ...
We know that the Buffalo Sabres were knee-deep in Robert Thomas discussions with the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday. That much has been confirmed. As has the fact that the idea of the Sabres landing Thomas has now been put to bed. Not happening. However, that doesn't mean that the Sabres and Blues are done talking. Several reports suggest that Buffalo is still eyeing a right-shot defenseman from St. Louis, and that just could be Colton Parayko. As others have reported, keep an eye on Buffalo...

I ask you, dear VEB’r, what could the Cardinals do to surprise the average fan? They have already been surprised with an Oliver Marmol extension, under a new President of Baseball Ops. Chaim Bloom had already worked with Marmol during the Mozeliak transitional years, and you can tell there is an affinity at least between […]
The Montreal Canadiens seem to be the team most often cited in rumors surrounding St. Louis Blues ' star center Robert Thomas. But as insider Pierre LeBrun said on TSN today , "I was told as of last night, the price is still astronomical... As it should be! 26-year-old No. 1 centers on a decent contract don't come around very often. I think St. Louis is well within its rights to ask for the moon for Robert Thomas." It's being said that Blues GM Doug Armstrong is asking for the equivalent...
The New York Islanders are starting to look like a real team to watch in the Jordan Kyrou rumor mill, with reporting out there that Isles GM Mathieu Darche has checked in on Kyrou as the St. Louis Blues embrace selling ahead of the March 6 deadline. Islanders trade interest in Jordan Kyrou is getting real According to The Hockey News' Stefen Rosner , Darche has called on both Kyrou and Robert Thomas, which suggests the Islanders are hunting for a true difference-maker with term, not ju...
The Starter Boston acquired Willson “Don’t Forget The Second L” Contreras in late December from the St. Louis Cardinals, in exchange for SP Hunter Dobbins and pitching prospects Yhoiker Fajardo and Blake Aita. A catcher for the first nine years of his career with the Cubs and Cardinals, Contreras shifted to first base a year […]
If you’re ready to analyze performance and results, so am I. The first 10 games of Spring Training are a really bad barometer for that, and moreso an exercise in futility. So, until we can really dig into the fun stuff, I figured it would be a good time to share some thoughts on how […]
The St. Louis Cardinals Spring Training roster is now down to 39 after 11 players were just reassigned elsewhere.

The Minnesota Wild will be busy this week as we head to Friday's trade deadline. They're expected to make another big splash. For now, they have hit the waiver wire to claim 10-year veteran forward Robby Fabbri from the St. Louis Blues.

The Arizona Cardinals hit a home run last year in free agency by signing DT Calais Campbell and EDGE rusher Josh Sweat. Both players had an exceptional season and were worth every dollar they were paid. And now, here it is, about to begin this year’s version of free agency. Who will Cardinals GM Monti […]
We are now in the week of the NHL trade deadline and that means one thing: A whole lot of speculation about who will be moved after months of general inactivity across the league. Aside from the Minnesota Wild's blockbuster Quinn Hughes trade and the somewhat boring move of Artemi Panarin going to t...
The St. Louis Blues are involved in advanced trade talks on Robert Thomas, and by the sounds of it, two serious suitors have emerged as the heavy favorites. If Thomas is dealt before Friday's deadline, expect to see either the Boston Bruins or Utah Mammoth the trade-deadline winners. The Bruins are offering top prospects in return for Thomas, including Matthew Poitras and Dean Letourneau. They don't see interested moving James Hagens at this time. The Mammoth have Tij Iginla and Cole Beaudoin ...
In something of an upset, considering where the voting was on the 14th vote, Cooper Hjerpe surprised me at least by narrowly winning the vote for the 15th best prospect. Hjerpe was in a distant 4th place for the 14th prospect which, if you’re wondering, was partially possible because either different people voted or people […]
Game Summary The Pirates come to town for their first visit to RDS ever and leave with a 28-year streak of never having lost a game in Jupiter. The Pirates broke on top early with a 2-run HR by phenom Konnor Griffin, added a 2 spot in the second inning and single tallies in the […]
The Edmonton Oilers, despite the return of assistant coach Paul Coffey behind the bench, still need to address their defensive concerns ahead of Friday's trade deadline. This much is clear. They have been linked to a couple of candidates. We know that their interest in Toronto Maple Leafs' puck-mover Oliver Ekman-Larsson "is real." But according to insider Frank Seravalli, the Oil are also "fixated" on Blues top-four d-man Justin Faulk. According to Frank Seravalli Oilers are fixated on ...
