Armstrong, Hitchcock 'still discussing' coach's future

Blues general manager Doug Armstrong said Thursday that he and coach Ken Hitchcock are still talking and still working toward a decision on the coach's future with the franchise.

"I go back to what we talked about at the end of year," Armstrong said on Thursday during a conference call to discuss the hiring of Martin Brodeur as the team's new assistant general manager. "We're not going to put a specific date on when we'll have a decision. Ken and I have had really good communications since the end of the season. When I was in Europe we talked quite a bit.
