Huberdeau is a FA after this season so wonder if he’s agreeing to an extension as well?

Hmm. Another really long commitment to a good player who probably falls short of consistently great. That puts the Blues at $67.5MM already committed for 23-24, with ROR, Tank, and Barbashev as UFA's. We better hope Thomas and Kyrou are consistent 1st liners.

Perunovich out six months as well for shoulder surgery. Our D depth is going to be tested hard this year. I hope Krug, Faulk, Parayko and Leddy stay healthy. Yikes.

What are we thinking the forward lines are going to look like?

The top six forwards are pretty set.
Thomas/Kyrou/Buchnevich
O'Reilly/Tarasenko/Saad

3rd line?
Schenn/Barbashev/???
Or do you move Brown (if healthy) up to center here and move Schenn over to wing?

Then the 4th line is what??

Thus far I'm only marginally excited for this season. I feel like we've taken a small step back from last season, where we were clearly a level below the Avs. They are probably still a playoff team, and who knows how they match up against the Avs by that point, but it is hard to get pumped up for a season where I feel like we are slightly worse.
