Summary
The St. Louis Blues made some of the biggest moves of the offseason, acquiring Mason McTavish and Brandon Carlo while adding a talented group of prospects through the 2026 NHL Draft. Could these additions be enough to push the Blues from playoff hopeful to legitimate Stanley Cup contender? In this episode, we break down how McTavish strengthens the Blues down the middle, what Carlo brings to the blue line, and why St. Louis' draft class could have a major impact on the organization's future. We also discuss whether Doug Armstrong has quietly built one of the deepest rosters in the Western Conference and if the Blues deserve to be considered one of the NHL's biggest dark horses heading into the 2026-27 season.
