Hockey Trade

No way STL does that

Also how are they going to afford that extension lmao

I think in a alls well world, you're right, but the relationship does seem strained there, I mean even Rutherford in his end of season article asks if he really is too important to trade and discusses the tough relationship there

That exact reason is why they won’t do it, how important he is to their core and how much he’s flourished in that system. Wouldn’t be worth it to trade him imo. Too much risk involved.

It's not a strained relationship. It's an employer asking their employee to grow.

Blues need Kyrou to be more engaged without the puck, simple as that.

I don't think moving Kyrou who is proven to be able to be a ppg in our system for Debrincat really solves anything.

It's not a fractured relationship, it's just candidly answering a question that they need more from Kyrou aside from the points to be a winning team.

I'd rather keep Kyrou if Debrincat wants more than 8 mil and less than 8 years. Also lol at Rutherford having sources. Dude stirs up so much ****. He was the one who at the forefront of the Pietrangelo/Steen locker room divide the same year we won the cup. Dude is the ultimate pick me girl disguised as a hockey reporter
