In the eyes of many Blues fans, the offseason can be called a success (at least thus far). Stillman, Armstrong and co. made it clear that they intend on doing what they can to put this franchise in a position to win with a great draft and a successful free agency period. Now, instead of glaring needs or outright holes in the lineup, we're left with questions about the upcoming season.
Feel free to add on, but here are a few off the top of my head:
1) Will the Elliott/Allen tandem provide enough solid/stable goaltending for this team?
2) Will Stastny provide enough additional offense to put this team over the hump?
3) Can our defensive corps stand up against the onslaught of the big-bodied, Pacific division juggernauts (as well as the Bryan Bickell's of the world)?
4) Will our powerplay over come it's woes?
5) Will Hitchcock finally adjust his approach and loosen up the reins a little bit on his team with all the talent assembled?
6) Most importantly, how far can this team go?/Can this team finally get out of the first round and over the western conference hump into the Stanley cup finals?
These are a few of the pressing questions going forward, but what other questions are there as it pertains to the '14-15, St. Louis Blues?
