Summary
Today’s episode breaks down a major moment for the St. Louis Blues as Alexander Steen officially takes over as general manager and outlines his vision for the organization. Steen spoke about continuity with Doug Armstrong, building internal competition, and why the Blues feel comfortable with their current roster heading into a new era. We also get comments from Robert Thomas, who addressed the team’s direction, his growing leadership role, and the excitement around the Blues’ recent roster moves and young core. Plus, we go through all of today’s transactions, including qualifying offers and the Jonathan Drouin buyout, and what it signals about where this roster is headed heading into free agency. Is this officially “Steen’s Blues” already? And how close is St. Louis to re-establishing itself as a consistent contender in the Western Conference?
