That is a weak offer for Perron.

Allen is not negative value either.

I agree on both counts; you're right. But I don't know that the Blues are going to get much better deals; they're going to have to lose the value deal just to shed salary.

If the Blues are going to resign Pietrangelo and Dunn, they need to dump each of Bozak, Allen and Perron and they can't take on any more money other than minimum salary contracts. So basically to dump Perron and Allen you need to do it just for draft picks or for super-low value contracts. Perron only has 2 years left on his deal and Allen only has 1 in a year where there's a huge market for goalies. Basically the Blues won't have a lot of options for takers for these players in a flat salary cap world.

Fair value on the Winnipeg trade.

Considering that Perron is a multiyear asset with a very affordable contract, I'd look to trade players like Sundqvist and Gunnarsson before him.

I'd also consider buying out Steen. That'll save them $2,5M which might become very important money for them.

Okay good point. I just ran that scenario. You're right. They'd get rid of Sundqvist and Gunnarson before Perron. I'm wrong. Good point.

Idk if they move Sundqvist, good depth player who can play center, young and his contract is pretty cheap, he probably has appeal for all those reasons though which may be why he'd be moved.. Lol

Would they move O'Reilly I wonder 🤔. With Thomas up and coming.

Probably not, Chevy missed out on that one, he's got dayoff in his name after all... 😃

No chance they get rid of O'Reilly. I retract this proposal; someone suggested they wouldn't trade Perron and upon reflection I agree. I think they ride it out another year until they lose Steen. This year will be tough but they should be okay the following year.

That's funny man 🤣🤣
