“This is the year of the young defenseman.” The year of the young forward? Might just be 2026-27.

Sharks claim Nick Leddy off waivers, clearing way for Tyler Tucker to log bigger minutes. "It became a numbers game. One of the things, too, is the coach who selects who goes over the boards is a big Tucker fan."

“I don’t see a lot of changes, with the caveat I could go back there and I could be back here (speaking to reporters about a move) in an hour and a half. I don’t see it. I think we’re excited about this group, and I hope we’re better.”

Doug Armstrong spoke to reporters, and a full write up to come in @stltoday later, but sounds like the Blues are done for the summer and done at a cap position that will give them financial flexibility during the regular season when they put Torey Krug on LTIR.

Theo Lindstein has picked up valuable playoff experience in Sweden the last two years. Now, it's time for North America in the fall. "I’m just going to take that with me and bring it over here and be myself and play my game."
