At 6-foot-3, and 203 pounds, Jimmy Vesey looks like he could be an immediate top-six forward for the Blues. His hometown Boston Bruins are most likely odds on favorite to land him.
With the departures of Backes, Ott, and Brouwer to free agency, the Blues have a few holes at forward. The Boston Globe cited that the Blues as a potential landing spot due to some connections between Vesey's father and members of the St. Louis front office.
Suppose you were the Blue’s GM on August 15th and you wanted this talented player. There will be no bidding war. He can only sign the maximum under the entry-level system ($925,000 base, with bonus opportunities). What are your talking points? As a GM what would you offer him to persuade him to wear a Blue Note vs. a B.
