A report came out the other day that Vladimir Sobotka was probably going to stay in the KHL. The original report indicated that Doug Armstrong spoke with Sobotka’s agent during the World Hockey Championships and Sobotka was likely going to put off an NHL return.
A new report has come out suggesting that Sobotka still hasn’t made a final decision but expects to have an answer on his future by May 30th.
Vlady Sobotka has yet to make a decision on where he'll play next season. Will make it by the 30th #stlblues #KHL

Realistically, way too much attention is being paid to Sobotka and this whole situation. Sobotka would be a nice player to have, but he won’t be the answer which brings the Blues a Cup. The Blues know this – it’s why they didn’t originally overpay him – and hopefully that mindset hasn’t weakened.
