The main part of the trade is between STL and PHI.

The DET part is to try to get rid of Krug. Would think a decent contract would have to come the other way, and Chiarot is one of the few options. Krug also has a NTC but is from Detroit and was linked to go there before (unfortunately) signing in STL

Krug departing frees up the space to go after TK and TK fits the exact mold of players the Blues are after. May cost more than a late 1st and young player potentially needing (another) change in scenery

Interested in hearing thoughts about these two trades. Mainly between PHI and STL and what it would take to get TK to the Blues.

Follow up:

This feels like it could be similar of a trade to when the Blues acquired Schenn in 2017.

That package was a 2017 1st (late 1st) 2018 1st, and Jori Lehtera.

Think a similar package for TK could be both late round 1sts this year and Logan Brown. Maybe adding another AHL player (Gaudette comes to mind)

Hell no to Chiarot. NEVER.

And we're not spending two 23 1sts on a winger, we have other areas that actually need fixing before we start going after luxury items.
