All indications point to Perron re-signing with the blues. If he doesn't I'd rather just use Neighbors on the third line and move Kyrou up to take Perron's spot. Blues should be using their first on a LHD and not another winger. If we were to make this trade Oloffson would be playing on the third line which I don't think will maximize his skillset

I KNOW; this doesnt show what the Blues would do with the extra money they save by getting Olo, the cheap Hoffman. They could pass on Perron and sign a D like Chiarot with the money saved. Or pursue someone else on D via trade - i.e Chychrun

This trade was just an OPTION and one piece of the PUZZLE to do what you are planning

All of these suggestions are horrible. Ditch the team's
emotional leader in Perron for Olofsson and Chiarot???? You're barking up the wrongest tree here. AND Olofsson is about to head for a raise he ain't worth, so there's no savings. Awful.

You are terrible to talk to mokumboi

Bro, I've repeatedly tried to explain the obvious to you as to how this all in no way serves the Blues' needs, but you won't accept it. Others tried, as well. Saying they're awful proposals is not an attack on you. It's factually accurate. Don't blame us for being honest with you.

Olofsson is worth more than the 18 spots between 23 and 41. Toropchenko and Ruotsalainen are an even swap. Sabres pass

Buffs second is pretty high. Would only be moving down 18 spots. Olofsson replaces Perron on the power play - will be a significantly cheaper option too so they can explore other FA options on D
Think the value is right there - if the blues dont at least counter for slightly more return (i.e. Floridas 1st 2022), then St Louis is dumb
