First off congratulations to Joel Quenneville and the Chicago Blackhawks on winning the Stanley Cup. There are few people in this business Iâd rather see lift the Stanley Cup before Quenneville. This guy has been a great coach for a long, long time and will finally receive the recognition he deserves as a winner.

The Blues are having ongoing discussions with former first rounder David Rundblad in an effort to get the Swedish native signed prior to the June 15th deadline.
If the two sides fail to reach an agreement by the deadline then technically no further discussions can begin until after his season in Sweden concludes next spring. In actuality it could be as late as May before the Blues and Rundblad…
