Haley Taylor SimonHOST
Now, Nathan Walker is one of those players that will drop his gloves, right? But then you have to think about it.
Haley Taylor SimonHOST
You have Ross Johnston, who was replacing that, right? So while we can kind of come up with reasons as to why each player would be beneficial if they were playing up in the NHL in the Blues, you also have to keep in mind that there was a lot that happened this offseason.
Haley Taylor SimonHOST
I'm happy that they all cleared.
Haley Taylor SimonHOST
I am.
Alex FerrarioHOST
And I think we all said on the podcast, the moment it did, it's like, he's probably going in the minors, Nathan Walker.
Alex FerrarioHOST
I mean, I hate to say it cause I love that little Aussie, but like, When they signed Ross Johnston, it kind of made Nathan Walker's role irrelevant for the team because Johnston plays that role.
Alex FerrarioHOST
So you looked at their fourth line and said, OK, well, where's the upside here? And I thought that was Finley because he's big and that's a big fourth line that could play the penalty kill for you.
Alex FerrarioHOST
But in all reality, I kind of get where they're going with this.
Alex FerrarioHOST
Pew Suter, who two years ago scored 23 goals and Zach Dean, who led juniors in scoring in the playoffs.
Alex FerrarioHOST
So like there's offensive upside there.
Alex FerrarioHOST
And in games where they don't need that Ross Johnston enforcer like player, they're going to emphasize offense.
Alex FerrarioHOST
And so Dean and Dubé provide that over Sundquist or Walker or Jack Finley.
Brody HermanGUEST
Of their 230 goals last season, so the Blues definitely need more offense.
Brody HermanGUEST
But the most underrated signing of the offseason, mark my words, Ross Johnston.
Brody HermanGUEST
He brings a level of toughness to this team that we may not have seen since Ryan Reeves.
Brody HermanGUEST
And, you know, you got a couple guys heading towards restricted free agency at the end of the year.
Ian CameronHOST
You bring some sandpaper muscle.
Ian CameronHOST
Ross Johnston.
Ian CameronHOST
Nobody's going to mess around with anybody now.
Ian CameronHOST
The blue lines, a little more of a concern.
Chris KerberGUEST
I thought Zach Dean had a really good camp, and this was the guy that they – traded Ivan Barbashev straight up for and unfortunately injuries got him where he's only played 93 games over the last three years so a chance for him to really step into his own and be a part of something here at the beginning so I think And Brandon Carlo looks, by the way, just as advertised.
Chris KerberGUEST
I mean, same with Ross Johnston.
Chris KerberGUEST
That punch that Ross Johnston threw in that Thursday night game against Chicago when Johnston got headbutted was just fantastic.
Chris KerberGUEST
I mean, I think we've seen a player with that kind of snarl where he just got that twinge snap factor, which is fantastic.
Chris KerberGUEST
And then, you know, Brandon Carlo, very vocal on the ice.
Chris KerberGUEST
1,800 regular season games and 180 playoff games.
Chris KerberGUEST
What, 6'1 and 6'5"? You know, so a totally different size, you know, grouping in that as well.
Chris KerberGUEST
You know, and then, you know, Ross Johnston, the size that they had, they brought in bigger people, bigger people in the middle.
Chris KerberGUEST
And then Brandon Carlo looks, by the way, just as advertised.
Chris KerberGUEST
I mean, sa- same with Ross Johnston.
Chris KerberGUEST
That punch that Ross Johnston threw, uh, um, in that Thursday night game against Chicago when Johnston, uh, got headbutted was just fantastic.
Chris KerberGUEST
I mean, I don't think we've seen a player with that kind of snarl, where you just got that twin snap factor, which is fantastic.
Chris KerberGUEST
And then, you know, Brandon Carlo, very vocal on the ice.
Chris KerberGUEST
You know, uh, what, 6'1" and 6'5".
Chris KerberGUEST
You know, so, uh, a, a, a totally different size, you know, grouping in, in that as well.
Chris KerberGUEST
You know, and then, you know, Ross Johnston, the size that they had, they brought in bigger people, bigger people in the middle.
Randy KarrakerHOST
Theo Lindstein will be here.
Randy KarrakerHOST
Forwards, Mason McTavish, Connor McMichael, Ross Johnston, Zach Dean, and Dylan Dubé are all on hand.
Randy KarrakerHOST
Now members of the Blues that weren't members of the Blues at the end of last season.
Randy KarrakerHOST
It's a younger, different looking, tough team.
Eddie GarciaHOST
They have missed the postseason three in the last four years.
Eddie GarciaHOST
In Mason McTavish, Connor McMichael, Brandon Carlo, and Ross Johnston.
Eddie GarciaHOST
Out Jordan Cairo, Radek Faxa, and Nick Letty.
Eddie GarciaHOST
Your leader...
Jack BushmanHOST
I will say, shout out to AJ Spellacy and Sasha Boisvert for getting involved physically.
Jack BushmanHOST
Spellacy, by the way, absolute horse crap that he got ejected for a headbutt on Ross Johnston.
Jack BushmanHOST
When Johnston started that whole interaction between each other behind the play.
Jack BushmanHOST
And it seemed like Johnston did quite literally the exact same thing that Spellacy did, but Spellacy was the one who got penalized for it.
Brandon KileyHOST
Sorry, Alex.
Alex FerrarioHOST
They needed Ross Johnston to make sure that everybody kept their cool out there, because-
Tanner HendricksonPANELIST
[laughs] That leftie delivered from center ice.
Tanner HendricksonPANELIST
Whoo.
Brandon KileyHOST
We, we don't necessarily need Nathan Walker around right now, as much as we all like Nathan Walker and what he brings to the table.
Brandon KileyHOST
And, like, just being real, he's kinda been replaced by Johnston.
Brandon KileyHOST
That physical, like, enforcer role that just stirs stuff up, that's Ross Johnston.
Brandon KileyHOST
They signed him to a three-year deal for a reason, and now he's gonna be here for the foreseeable future.
