I'd be game to cop both, but I think someone would outbid us for Barbashev. Schenn, who has been unpopular to a lot of Tampa fans on here in regards to bringing him back, would be a smart move I think. Unless theres someone we already have our eyes on in the draft, I say we should trade picks. By the time any of the players we draft are developed, this teams window will be closed. Schenn is a great add on the right side, though we are unlikely to resign him in July cause someone will pay him a good raise, he is a good "7th" man to have, or can easily step in on the right side if Perbix needs to be scratched. The argument against him is that he was just a 7th defenseman and sat the majority of his contract on the bench or in the press box. While true, he was integral playing his limited role. He could step in and provide consistency whenever he was called upon. I am all for bringing him back, but I wouldn't trade Cal to get him. I would trade picks and a prospect or someone in the minors. Barbashev Would be great for the bottom 9, but we would have to give up a ton of picks to get him, if we aren't giving up Foote. Maybe a 3rd this year and a 2nd next year. For a rental? I'm not sure. Might be tough to get Barbashev since all blues fans think he's getting a 2nd+ from this year. But the Horvat and Senko trades really lowered the value of UFAs from what CF users thought they would be worth.
