I'm sure there's a critic on this site who will find a flaw in what the Blues did. But at this point it looks like they squeezed as many pressure points as they could in making these while keeping themselves somewhat protected.
I thought the Habs offersheet on Aho was just stupid, had no chance of working, and Carolina easily outsmarted them with their retaliation. The one the Flyers did on Weber was at least was creative even if it didn't work, and there was merit in the one they hit Kesler with too. But all the others were either pointless or bad save the Blues retaliation on Gillis for his Backes one. This work by the Blues looks to be pretty astute.
