St. Louis clings to 28th place with a battered roster and whispers of a full teardown before March 6. Doug Armstrong faces calls to shop vets like Schenn, Faulk, and Kyrou while prospects like Dvorsky dazzle post-Olympics and Snuggerud fights back from injury. Armstrong's choice now shapes whether they chase a top draft pick like McKenna or salvage pride in the final stretch.

Blues rookie Dave Snuggerud joins his first Dads' Trip, forging bonds with old man as St. Louis battles for positioning. These trips blend family nostalgia with road warrior vibes, reminding vets why they grind through 82 games. Snuggerud's milestone adds fresh energy to a Blues locker room chasing playoff redemption.

Snuggerud keeps piling up points in a run that's got scouts whispering about rookie-of-the-year locks and Calder buzz in every front office from Toronto to Tampa. This kid's vision and shot remind old-timers of those early Bure flashes, turning heads when teams need snipers most.
