    you're missing jake walman and phoenix Copley. fabbri has first line potential. i'd say barbashev should have some nice fantasy value. parayko will be awesome in multi-cat leagues, and walman is also gonna be really good. i'm curious as to how schmaltz will fit into their D with so many guys ahead of him. but he also has lots of offensive potential. binnington is a really good goalie, but he's behind allen on the depth chart. when Elliot's contract runs out, he'll be the backup, and I think one day he'll take over the top job from allen. imo he's a better goalie. it just might take some time.

    Agree on Walman. I'd also add Ville Husso and Vince Dunn to the radar.

    The previous responders covered the additions you need to consider......

    My view you need to look at the large number of blues who will not be returning next season
    Backes, Brower, Ott, Upshall, Brodziak and Paajarvi at forward
    Gunnarsson on Defense

    Leaves me to think the Blues will make little splash in the FA market and start to use many of the in house options....

    Steen-Statsny-Rattie
    Schwartz-Lehtera-Tarasenko
    Berglund-Fabbri- ???
    Jaskin-Barbashev- ???

    The only 2 true holes to fill are at wing....Reaves is under contract but I don't think he dresses much next year.

    Pietrangelo-Bouwmeester
    Shatty-Parayko
    Edmundson-Walman

    On D this gives each pairing a puckmover and a physical/cerebral defenseman....Walman success at Providence is incredible this year and he makes the jump from NCAA to NHL just like Parayko did in my view...
