[Dreger] The St. Louis Blues front office is changing with Kevin Maxwell and Peter Chiarelli leaving the club to pursue other opportunities. Chiarelli is a candidate in Nashville’s interview process and Maxwell is expected to return to the New York Rangers in a management role.

  1. don’t know much abt GMs in the league, but i know enough to make A Face about this idea

  2. Not saying Chiarelli is the guy we need, but I don’t think there’s a GM candidate y’all will find acceptable.

  3. Honestly, Preds should hire not someone who’s been in the league/been a GM for a while. I know it’s a boys club but, eventually the club’s gonna need new members or the club dies…

  4. Oh for fucks sake fucking A no Chiarelli… were fucked if he is hired… Edmonton was terrible when he had them…

  5. Chiarelli almost tanked out the Oilers with McDavid and Draisaitl on the team. A hard hell no from me on Chia. Dude is a hockey terrorist.

  6. Please not Chiarelli, I’m hoping for someone out of Dallas or Carolina. The way they’ve run the roster building has been impressive.

    My thought is I’d rather have someone that can show a well executed plan than someone with good contacts around the league.

  7. I’d really like to just go with someone who’s at least a AGM with no GM experience. Something fresh but with some experience. Not recycled garbage.

  8. This feels when the Chiefs let Matt Nagy because he was getting interviews for HC. They knew he wasn’t going to get them, but they didn’t want to sully his standing in the league while they hired someone they actually wanted.

  9. I would take the biggest and longest walk off the shortest cliff if they hire Chiarelli. Granted I don’t think shanahan is good as a GM either or even as a hockey ops pres if he doesn’t have dubas.

  10. I’ll say the exact same thing I did in the Oilers sub:

    I will fling Chia to the sun.

  11. Chiarelli would be the last straw for me, hockey fandom ain’t that serious that I have to continue rooting for that kind of garbage decision making.
