Again, why would they do this? Nothing we'd trade back would replace what they'd give up. Doesn't really make sense for a contender does it.

Just go get Matt Carle from TB. Tell Yzerman to hold some celery and give a 4th round pick.

What is in their system for defensemen? Anyone ready to come up?

When you look at the Ducks, they are able to fill a hole with Shea Theodore if they trade one.

Is there anyone on the Blues that they could be willing to move up, if they ship someone out? Or was Parayako that guy?

My Step-dad works at the show every year. He's working the Convention at Ballys/Paris now because he's been moved in his company. SEMA is an impressive sight. I set up the MSD booth a few years in a row.

When Kane is healthy where is the roster change?

44 off the top line, or 82 off the 2nd?

EDIT: according to left wing lock - Weber is back in with Pysyk.

yeah nothing ever makes sense when a poster tries to start a conversation on a hockey web site


future nhl gm classes don't exist in florida and I do not own an x box

girgens is not expandable to get larrson a fixture on the third line
gorges will not be an asset for a bottom pairing d man for a team trying to make a cup run
ott will give the blues all they need during this 12 week stretch where schwartz is out
with Pietrangelo, Bouwmeester, Shattenkirk, Gunnarsson, Parayko and Edmundson on the blues roster, they would never think to move one to upgrade their team up front


and the Shattenkirk smoke was clearly false because a gm denied there was smoke

just like Myers was not on the trade market 7 days before he was shipped out

Because no one worth anything on a good team is ever traded?

they have Schmaltz and Vannelli both in the pipeline, Vannelli was rated out about the same as parayako, schmaltz rated higher when they were drafted

1. out of curiosity how many GM's have actually been to a future nhl gm class? most are former players or law students

2.No Im with you there i'd move him for the right price, im a big larsson fan

3. No he really won't be, cup contender up against the cap takes gorges at nearly 4 mil for this year and 2 more after?

4. They would absolutely look for an upgrade, if they were struggling. They're near the top of the league, and how is moving Pietrangelo for girgensons plus plus an upgrade?

5. see point 4

6. I never believed that for a second.

I think giving up more important assets right now is out of the question. I would toss Foligno out there with a 3rd or 4th rd pick to see what kind of return you can get.

Its why I brought up Carle from TBL. He would be cheap to get and you could probably get Yzerman to hold some celery 1-1.5MM. Brings Carles cap hit down to 4-4.5MM

the blues have 2 more highly touted prospects in the pipeline on d

why wouldn't they move one of their d men to upgrade the team up front?


esp since they get bounced early with their big 3 on d



plus I really like Shattenkirk and JayBow

that would also make sense

Yzerman loves to wheel and deal and they need to free up money

They absolutely would, nothing we'd be willing to give up upgrades them enough to justify moving Shattenkirk or Pietrangelo. JayBow has a no trade and awful cap hit going into his mid 30's

Yeap. TBL frees up 4MM of cap to use towards re-signing Stamkos.

5.4 mil is not a bad cap hit


petry makes more and jaybow is much better
