Contract extension talks underway for...
Keith Tkachuk! Everyone's favorite resident grizzled vet (ok, probably our only real grizzled vet) is in talks today with Davidson and the organization, per the Post Dispatch. The agreement could be done by the end of the day today. From the tone of the write up, it might be for only one more season, but he can provide the leadership in that season to the young guys to keep them going in the right direction - because we all know how quickly youngsters can get in trouble. Whipper snappers.
Anyway, I'd be keeping my eyes peeled on the PD or the official Blues site for the contract announcement.

JD's in Vegas working on this...
… he could wait until tomorrow, but no, he’s doing it today. That says a LOT. I would expect a year, probably 1.5 mil. 2 years would surprise me, although I wouldn’t pitch a holy hissy fit just because I have a Big Walt crush.
Yeah, I like the older dudes. What? :D At least he’s not crazy – I was in love with Roy as a kid, and he’s batshit insane.

If it's 2 years,
I like the idea of a player option for the second year.

I thought the talks were for 2 to 2.5 mil per season. Regardless if its a one or two year deal, its going to be good for the Blues. You won’t find a veteran of his caliber willing to play on the 3rd or 4th line and PP for that much. Sure he’s not as good as he used to be, but 20 goals is nothing to sneeze at. He’s been such a classy guy and genuinely loves St. Louis. As much as he’s done for St. Louis, he deserves to retire a Blue.
Barret Jackman is my hero.
Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

Exactly.
Anyone who offers himself up for a trade for the future of the org and then specifically turns down the team he was traded to for a renewal to come home is A+ in my book (the fact that I can empathize in the fact that he told Atlanta “thanks, but no thanks – I really love St. Louis and would prefer to live there” accounts for a little of this).
He has always put himself on the line for this team, and like you said, deserves to retire a Blue. That, and he has net presence like no one else in the league. You need a dirty, well-timed rebound goal? Walt’s your man.

I'm Offended
A google add just popped up for DETROIT GEAR! On this very site! Do they realize what they’re doing?
Oh, and sign Walt already will you J.D.

We've probably screwed outselves
by posting “Detroit” so much, even though preceded by “Fuck”. The stupid ad robots see our posts & think we want to buy Detroit crap since we post about that scumhole of a city so much.
Let's go Blues!!!

Damn, Dooks,
gotta read further before posting.
You conceived of the same notion two days before I did.
Sorry, Bro.
Let's go Blues!!!
