Unsigned #Canes RFA/10.2c Alexander Nikishin has left his agency Quartexx.
Expecting him to select his new agency shortly.

After last night's game, Monty was asked if he's seen many young defensemen who can move the puck, create space and jump into plays like Jiricek: “Yeah, Makar comes to mind, Hughes. There’s other players in the league. But it’s nice to say that he kind of looks like them." (1/2)

Monty cont'd: "It’s almost like he’s an artist and the ice is his canvas. It’s fun to watch.” (2/2) #stlblues

What I’m seeing at Blues training camp:
-- Top line in sync
-- Connor McMichael on the move
-- Dalibor Dvorsky playing 'calm'
-- Forward roster battle shaping up
-- Rookie Adam Jiricek dazzling
-- Joel Hofer gets the nod for Game No. 1

Monty after the Blues picked up their first W of the preseason (1-0 over Chicago): "I felt the last two days of camp have been exceptional. It's been really in the right direction, as far as the compete level, the aggression level and the ability to play fast." #stlblues

Jiricek is going to be fun to watch for many years to come.
Do they keep him if Tucker isn't ready to start the season? Rosen just had something to say about that with the first goal of the game. #stlblues

In my mind, the forwards to watch tonight are Finley, Walker, Sundqvist and Dube. Seems like it'll come down to those four for two spots.
Then on D, Rosen and Jiricek are paired together. With Tucker (knee) out, team will likely choose between those two for 7th spot. #stlblues
