“Big, Bold, and Younger: How the Blues Could Rebuild Their Blue Lineand Land a Potential Superstar on Offense”
By Jason Fink The Blues need a little bit of an overhaul on defense. They almost pulled off a coup at the trade deadline when they had a deal in place to send defenseman Colton Parayko to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a first-round pick and Sabres number one prospect defenseman Radim Mrtka.

By Ray Mileur There are times in baseball when patience looks like stubbornness. There are also times when patience looks like wisdom. The St. Louis Cardinals may be living through the second one with Jordan Walker. Not long ago, Walker was a complicated young player in the Cardinals’ system.

That was the way the game was talked about then. A strikeout was viewed almost as a personal failure, the worst kind of out, a sign that a hitter had been beaten completely. In the old baseball language, putting the ball in play mattered. Moving a runner mattered. Making contact mattered. But when Mantle’s career is car

Photo- Yahoo Sports By Jason Fink After a second straight ouster from the playoffs, it looks like Brady Tkachuk’s time in Ottawa might be coming to an end. Tkachuk, the Senators’ captain and former fourth overall draft pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, could possibly bring the Senators quite the haul in a trade and they definitely need help in a lot of areas. A team who could help them with that is the St. Louis Blues. The Blues are the owners of the 11 th , 15 th , and 31 st picks
