Trading Allen

I know you're losing Weber, and I know that big d-core worked pretty well for you until the finals rolled around, but how many big-bodied d-men does one team need? Adding Savard & Bortuzzo. I think maybe one amazing run in the playoffs shouldn't get you committed to the same formula for next season. Balance, my friend.

This. If you don't have another puck moving defenseman you're one Petry away from being trapped in your zone all night.

I like the Dvorak addition and if we're able to flip Allen at a good price why not. If you add Dvorak who are your protected forwards?

I actually like that Blues trade. Not sure if the pick going to the Habs would be as high as a 3rd, but overall it's good. Lehkonen is the type of player that would do great in a 3rd line role in STL.
