I know Perunovich is the easy option to send down (no waivers) but imo he deserves a spot. Honestly he should be in the top4 which is more of an indictment of the rest of the guys than it is a credit to SP. He and Faulk are seemingly the only guys capable of generating offense from the back and this team is going to have to outscore some defensive problems if they want to win games. The question is, does Tucker or Rosen get claimed if you try to send one of them down? Alternatively, is a half-decent version of Scandella going to show up for this season? Because if not he could probably pass right through waivers on that contract.

People always say you can never have to many good players, well I think the blues have the problem of to many mediocre LDs

And ironically they drafted 4 more this year and 3 more last year to add to the mediocre pile. Who knows, maybe Lindstein or Buchinger will be good some day. Or even Paul Fischer. We'll have to wait and see while we watch the current guys try not to drown.

Tucker should be a good future guy, Loof will be good mark my words, and Lindstein will be good too
Scotty P is decent but so injury prone

I think the futures bright for our LHDs but we got to move out Krug Leddy and Scandella
