Logan Mailloux won his bet: the Blues told him to get a place in St. Louis, which means he made the club and will start the season in the National League. He did well at his team's camp , collecting four assists in as many games.

I'm not necessarily surprised because since the beginning of the summer, we've been hearing from the Blues that Mailloux was going to play in the NHL next season. They gave him every opportunity to prove himself, and he took it.Good for him.On the other side of the coin, Zachary Bolduc will start the season on the first wave of the Canadiens' powerplay. The Blues paid big to get Mailloux and the Habs paid big to get the Québécois.Both clubs obviously want to put their youngster in a situation where they can succeed quickly

Speaking of Mailloux… It's worth noting that his name has found its way into an NHL article featuring some daring predictions for the upcoming campaign.

The

defenseman, acquired from the Montreal Canadiens in exchange for winger Zachary Bolduc, will carve out a place for himself on the second wave of the power play, and will approach the 40-point plateau with more than 10 goals.

I'm especially looking forward to seeing how he'll be used this season in St. Louis. On the DailyFaceoff website, we see him playing on the third pair on defense alongside Tyler Tucker… And Mailloux can also be found at the tip of the second wave of the power play with Justin Faulk, Jordan Kyrou, Dylan Holloway and Jake Neighbours. He'll be well surrounded, to put it another way. And that can really help him have a big season offensively: we know, after all, that he has great offensive potential.
