Krug and Vrana for Gally and McGinn?!? I don't care about Vrana but Krug is worth way more.

Krug wants out
Gibson wants out
Win win for both players

You are not adressing my comment.

A player wanting out doesn't mean the team that owns him will just give him away.

It's bad for the dressing room it becomes toxic it true look at past history.

In no way did Krug ever say he wanted out but regardless blues easily say no

He was supposed to be traded for Hayes

Still not a good reason to give away an offensive top 4 Dman for peanuts.

They almost did he was supposed to go to Philadelphia for Kevin Hayes. He refused to be traded to Philly.

Yes but he refused, so A that doesn’t help your argument

But B and this is a Nitpick, technically he was supposed to go for sanheim

It's not clear that Torey Krug wants out of St. Louis but even if he does, your conviction that he didn't want to go to Philadelphia STRONGLY implies that he wouldn't want to go to Anaheim, either. And Pat Verbeek is sold on the idea of size on defense, so neither Krug nor Allen are likely to be the center of a trade of John Gibson.

It's also not clear that John Gibson wants out of Anaheim but even if he does, it's highly unlikely that he would want to go to a Canadian team, especially one likely to finish below the Ducks this year.

Gibson could be flip for Bennington. Bennington to Montreal not a big deal. Montreal should Gallagher to give rome for Ylonen.

Why would the blues trade Binnington for a worse goalie, who’s older, and more expensive

If Krug wanted out he would be out, he decided not to waive his NTC. As much as I would want him to waive, not for a worse contract in Gallagher

When has Krug ever said he wants out? In fact, he refused to waive his NTC already this off-season.
