Late Night Poll: Free Agency Looms
It has been a few years since the Blues were in a position to be considered an attractive destination for free agents. Sure they managed to land Jay McKee and Paul Kariya, but those two came here after their beaming agents said something to them that made each of them say, "Wait, how much did you just say?"
Now the Blues are seen as a team on the rise and not just as a rebuilding team on the verge of making the playoffs. Despite some aggressive moves by new GM Doug Armstrong, the well is still quite deep in St. Louis. The opportunity exists to build a team that becomes a dynasty. St. Louis is becoming a place where free agents want to come.
- There are dollars here.
- There is a good young team here.
- There is some sort of crazy-tall Arch here.
- There is an East Side here.
In short, everything a free agent could want.
I've made my intentions clear in a post below (as has fellow writer Hildy), but what about you? Who do you want to see the Blues go after when the free agency period opens on Thursday? Let's go to the poll, shall we?

Theres one Chelios vote
Either someone clicked the wrong button and didn’t realize it or they did it for the lulz.
He raged at the world, at his family, at his life. But mostly he just raged.
Just because Jay McClement is the best defensive forward in the NHL doesn't mean he should win the Selke.
Three people have failed to realize...
… that a vote total of zero would have been infinitely lulzier than anything those people could come up with on their own.
