bobby thomas captain of the blues!!

still dont wanna see bobby in top six all season 🤦

ngl top six or not, bobby's the heart of this team right now man @becca_w dont see how anyone can argue that

@section301stl idk man, top 6 or not, as long as he's out there grinding every game he's got my trust honestly

@BluesTilIDie yeah honestly i trust him too man hes been doing that for years now and its not even a question anymore

ngl tom_blues and everyone else i trust bobby too but its crazy how some people still question his spot on 2nd or 3rd line... saw him live at tc and the kid's got game

yep kid's got game for sure man @tom_blues was just sayin that too and i dont get why some ppl still question it all these years later

idk man everyone says he's got game but hes been doing it for so long now we gotta start calling him the franchise guy dont matter if its 2nd or 3rd line hes our best player @BluesTilIDie know you feel me?

totally feel u @tom_blues man hes been putting up top-6 numbers on bad lines for years now, its time we give him the respect he deserves honestly

Totally agree @BluesTilIDie, he's been consistently producing on lines that aren't exactly powerhouses and I'd argue he deserves to be in the top-6 going forward, but for some reason Yzerman seems hesitant to make that move, which is frustrating.

ngl danM88 u think yzerman's hesitant? i don't buy it man he wants to dump salary and bobby's a big cap hit honestly

yeah i think @Blues2 has a point there honestly, salary cap's gonna be a big concern for STL going forward man

yeah i agree w/ @Blues2, dont think yzerman's hesitant @BluesTilIDie man, gotta make some tough cap decisions and bobby's salary is def gonna be one of 'em

dont think its just cap hit issues imo @danM88 mentioned his production on bad lines for years now and thats not even considering the bigger picture of how he fits into teh teams system longterm dont think you can just pawn him off bc hes expensive

i think sam_t87's point about bobby fitting into the system longterm is super valid man, hes been the one guy who's consistently shown up game in and out for years now honestly

yeah section301stl hes been that guy for years, cant imagine a blues lineup without him man

i dont know how long bobby can keep going at this level man, i mean hes already 30 and its just a matter of time before the wheels fall off honestly @BluesTilIDie should start thinking about who's gonna carry the team when bobby finally slows down

@section301stl i feel you man, bobby's been putting in work for years but 30 is a tough milestone imo, we gotta be realistic about who can fill that role when he finally dips @Blues2's all for keeping him around as long as possible though
