[Spear]

NOT speculation..... it IS out of my price range.

 

[Evocable Manager]

He is upgrading with his raise. Or Armstrong will be murdered by me.

 

[Stealth JD]

Nice place. It's been real Backes.

 

[STLBloosiers]

So our centers next year are


Stasnty

Lehtera

Maybe Sobotka/Berglund


Wow can't wait to matchup vs Kopitar, Getzlaf, Thornton, Johansen, Toews, Seguin etc

 

[Spektre]

If that's his house it can't be that responsible posting it online.

 

[bleedblue1223]

With the housing market the way it is, it's smart of him to sell. I think we all know it's unlikely a deal is agreed on.

Pic 41. Besides that, Im not sure anyone would have known.

Either he thinks he's moving on to another team or he wants to move further west in STL for a larger yard to raise kids.

One of those rare Google Maps Streetview celebrity sightings...

I really hope he's not moving on, but if he is, I wish him the best.

 

[Note Worthy]

Seems like too big of a coincidence. Looks like he's moving on.

Sucks.

 

[Celtic Note]

That is his house. It's been shown in a couple of the interviews on the Blues site

Sucks.

I'm actually crying. This is a mistake and it probably closes our cup window unless we find a replacements.
But nobody, not even Stamkos is an equivalent replacements. The physicality, leadership, net front presence, size, defensive ability.

Who do we have to shutdown the other teams big dogs? Who do we have to be our net front presence on the PP? Who do we have to provide energy with hits? Who do we have to lead this team.

My pillow is soaked from all the crying and I hope Armstrong knows what he's doing. I can guarantee were not a cup contender if he leaves. He hasn't even dropped off, just played a different role and was a huge reason we went to the final 4.

Depressing. Maybe I'm just too emotionally attached but if he walks were a lot worse.

 

[Total Bender]

Im probably dilusional but this doesn't guarantee anything. Rutherford tweeted earlier that this was unrelated to his hockey plans. Don't know how he could know that though.

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

How does someone even find this?

If it's through looking at pictures on the wall of houses on the market that's pretty creepy...

 

[Majorityof1]

It was just listed, not sold. He will know for certain whether he is coming back by the end of this month. He could just be putting it up just in case. If he signs in the next 2 weeks, you pull the listing. If not, he got half a months head start. Or hell, he could have rescued 8 more puppies and need more space. No need to read too much into this. This could be common practice for NHLers to put their house up just in case but we never know because the creepers with the magnifying glass on the pictures missed the clues.

It's a lose/lose situation. If he walks, the team suffers. If he's resigned for that's most likely a 6m+ contract, the team will suffer outside of the very short term.

I'm sure it's much more innocent than that. It could be a neighbor that noticed the house was for sale or the listing agent casually mentioning it to a friend/family member/acquaintance etc. Then it's just a matter of finding the listing. It's difficult to keep something like this anonymous.

You bring up a very good and truthful point my friend. It'll take me a while to cope with it.

But going on YouTube to cheer myself up and this being the first recommended video doesn't help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=254BUDnI6nI

I'd love to see that Backes giving hard hit on Tarasenko and then Bortuzzo or Reaves comes out and beat the hell out from dog lover.

 

[TheDizee]

someone is gonna offer him a big money deal.

it will come down to whether he wants to take a hometown discount or take the big money elsewhere (likely on a team not in cup contention)

 

[belair]

Only three fireplaces?

Pffft...you call that a house?

 

[WeWantTacos]

Even on gmaps street view he's still got a dog by him.
