Sujet: Carolina-Tarasenko and Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mamlaahd</b></div><div>Carolina are not looking to swap top-6 forwards they are looking to add. Why would Carolina give St.Louis a healthy Nino for an injured Tarasenko, that literally makes zero sense. I think Gunler (considered a top-15 prospect in 2020 draft, he fell due to attitude) and a 1st for Tarasenko is good aslong as we can get half of his salary retained, but I want to move Martinook so bad because I want Drury to play on the 4th line. Drury played good in a league that is better than the AHL, so it literally makes zero sense for him to play there. It's just very confusing.</div></div>

Yeah, the half-retained route is something I think Armstrong should be looking at at this point.

Maybe it's semantics, but Tarasenko isn't injured. He had surgeries on his shoulder to correct an injury, and there is concern that the shoulder might never be 100%, but it isn't like he's on LTIR or questionable if he'll return. Anyone with interest is checking out his medical records and know what they're getting. When he played this past season, his movement and physical game looked fine, he just had trouble making plays at NHL pace from missing so much time. I expect Vladdy to put up better numbers than Nino, not to slight Nino or anything because he's a good player, but Tarasenko will finally be coming off of a full offseason and he'll have a lot to prove this year. If he didn't request a trade, I wouldn't bring up a 1-for-1 trade like that.

Sujet: Drop in comments what top 6 winger ur team would trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Devil1122</b></div><div>Tarasenko

Low trade value, perfect pair next to Hughes</div></div>

I think the hold up at this point might be related to no-trade clause? But if Vladdy wants to go, he's gonna have to waive for anywhere that will take him.

Interestingly enough, it looks like the Blues would be under the cap with the current roster after signing RFAs. Seems like at this rate, the chance that VT stays in STL is climbing from 1% (Jeremy Rutherford's number which I agreed with) toward it being a realistic possibility... who knows. IMO Blues need to move him ASAP and move on. But if Armstrong isn't willing to sell low and thinks that it won't damage the room, and if VT isn't going to expand his trade destinations, maybe he sticks around?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JToller1</b></div><div>I would do Nolan Foote, Kevin Bahl, and a Top 15 protected 1st in 2022. Return isn't bad tho.</div></div>

I think the Blues would be lucky to get Foote in a 1-for-1. Some people are expecting too much for Vladdy IMO. It's nearly August and he still hasn't been moved. If they want to have money for free agents they're gonna have to cut bait in the next few days and settle for a pretty low return. Now if STL is going to retain or take back bad money, maybe they get a nicer return. But for a team to take him at 7.5m I think the cost is going to be a prospect who is getting lost in the mix (say a Jesper Boqvist or Keiffer Bellows or Bode Wilde) and a 2nd round pick, maybe another conditional pick based on VT's stats next season.

Sujet: BOL Vladdy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>"They'd probably still move Dunn if Vladdy is selected... "

Not sure why that would be, since exposing Vladdy is likely an attempt to keep Dunn.

Also, spending that kind of money on Raanta is a waste. He seems to be slipping fast, and Husso will likely be better than him soon anyway.</div></div>

I guess that depends on if you believe Army has been shopping Dunn for a while or not. I think he would definitely pull the trigger on something reasonable if it comes across his desk, and then probably try to add a more defensive guy to play with Parayko on the shut-down pairing.

Valid concern with Raanta - he's always injured, but he has good numbers when healthy. I'd still trust him over most of the other FA goalies, and over Husso at this point.
