Umm and you get Allen and Steen, each of whom has value, as you yourself stated right before that silliness. Let's not pretend you;re just doing us a favor out of the kindness of your hearts, neither of those players is a straight cap dump. Meanwhile, we also have zero use for Lindgren. So if anyone is taking a pick back and tossing over a 4th in its place, it's the Blues taking back that 2020 1st.
i think like Alzner you're willing to carry the dead cap rather then pay to move him
its doesnt Magically give Steen value , that's ridiculous given his play vs his contract
Allen you could argue has a positive value as his contract is almost up making him not our problem after that.
I love Jake , 1/3 NB Born NHL players and the only one with a Cup he brought home
I golf with his uncle and dad twice a year and have met Jake a few dozen times
but even with all that bias from myself seeing value in Allen , he has none to MTL even as a back up
Price wont sit for him anymore then he would Niemi or Montoya because he's not good enough to steal games
To the right team though and not MTL Allen has value but in STL he has the biggest value
why they'd trade him knowing he plays well with Binnington doesnt make sense .
But again lets not pretend clearing the cap to Re-sign Pietrangelo does not have value to STL
if they thought moving a late 1st could clear the cap needed to sign him longterm similar to TML moving Marleau's cap to free up the cap to get the Marner deal done
