I don’t see the Hawks trading Kurashev after the season he had and the chemistry he built with Bedard unless it is a significant overpay which this offer isn’t.

Chicago declines. Not giving up Kurashev for that.

Turcotte is a bust

I would be very happy to trade you Cal Foote, but I don't think it would be fair to do so....maybe check him out before putting him in a trade. A simple googling of him will suffice.

I don't love it but I don't really hate it for the Blues.

Gavrikov would be a good partner with Parayko if we can resign at a decent number. Turcotte is a bit of a bust but who knows, could become something. Same with Kaliyev, Then the picks are fine.

If the Blues were to punt next year all together, I may be okay with this deal. Let the team sink to true levels of being bottom 5-10 then offload some contracts next offseason and be back the next year with young and hungry talent.

But all in all, not sure the Blues do this right now.. but never know

If you want Cal Foote, sure. Chances are he'll be playing for the Ontario penal league next year, but you can have him.

I think we got off on the wrong Foote

If you meant Nolan Foote, the forward, I think NJD would entertain that move. He is a big body, with big shot, but turns like the titanic.
