St.Louis isn't taking that unless its this year's 1st... Borowiecki isn't taking that little.

JBD should be off the table.

Boro would be lucky to get that. Considering the guy is hurt most every year, is a 6th or 7th defenseman on most good teams? If I were the GM I wouldn't even be offering him a contract. Especially when you factor in that Ottawa has Jaros, Brannstrom, Thomson, and JBD on deck. STL will likely take that deal seeing they get a 1st, another 1st in JBD, and a B level prospect which when the cap drops to $75M roughly and they need to re-sign Pietrangelo? They would be lucky to get a return like that for Parayko and his $5.5M cap hit. Factor in they just signed Perunovich to a contract, he's likely stepping in next year anyway. So if the Blues do need to cut salary like many teams will? To get a haul like that for a contract you likely need to drop anyway? Yeah it's a good trade.
