Sujet: Blues Blockbuster load up on forwards
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Justafan79</b></div><div>Question: Which gives TB the better chance to win now #29-32 or Ross Colton? Obvious answer is Colton. So, TB passes.</div></div>

Sign Colton with what money? a hair of 2 mil to sign what, 5 guys? People have to go and trading an RFA for a high pick is the best route for them

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>Dude, what??? Straight off the top, where do you imagine all this extra cap is going to come from?</div></div>

19 under contract on the roster after these trades. Get rid of Scandella (attach a pick if needed) to free up more. Torop will be cheap then having a few other $1 mil and cheaper contracts. Be spending near the cap ceiling which Doug almost always does anyway. Address the offense now, hope the defense plays well, then that increases trade value for next year. Plain and simple. Funny how all you do is roast on others posts yet I never see your posts

Sujet: Krug Go Bye Bye Plz
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoxNix</b></div><div>Calgary doesn't want or need Krug. We have plenty of offensive / two way defenseman. Andersson, Weegar, Hanifin, if/when he comes back Kylington and top offensive D prospect Poirier on the way maybe as soon as next year. We could use a 1st line scoring winger, a sniper, not a left shot offensive defenseman who's on the wrong side of 30 makes more money than any current Flames defenseman and would have trouble cracking Calgary's top 4.

Mangiapane has not underperformed, he's been filling a 3rd line checking role this year so of course his production is down. The last few games he's been on the top line with Lindholm and Toffoli and is producing again.</div></div>

This is why I like this site. Haven't been following the Flames much this season but hearing all that, Krug doesn't make much sense with that depth they have.

As a Blues fan, I'm just hoping they can somehow get rid of Krug and trying to see what teams could be suiters. Knowing he's just a PP specialist at this point, trying to think of any playoff teams next year that had a poor powerplay and Flames were towards the top of that list

Sujet: Meets the current needs of all three teams
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RobbieM86</b></div><div>Before everyone goes no way- look at each player and the current prices of some.
Ottawa wants a RD stay at home and a depth fwd
St Louis in a retool needs to drop salary while bring in the next wave of players
Vancouver is in a retool/rebuild but need a young RD to be beside Huges as a stay at home RD but have time to build that chemistry.
Ottawa solid stay at home RD at 50% of salary with Lazar as a depth fwd where he was drafted
St. Louis gets solid prospects with contract control for awhile
Canucks get a minor Dman who is very close to NHL ready and huge potential with a better draft pick for taking on contract and giving up a rental</div></div>

There is ZERO chance GMs will retain salary on a guy for 8 years

Try again

Sujet: 1 3 and 4 is the rumored asking price
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>darthsummer</b></div><div>Not an overpay for market value, but won’t help the playoff push (likely wouldn’t hurt lottery status the other way either, given the standings).

I get the logic and if the deal comes with an immediate extension, it removes the uncertainty of FA. And for all the ado made out of the deadline and these picks, few stars emerge percentage-wise from beyond the first round. This just costs chances at future depth.

CBJ called on Horvat with this same idea in mind. Price ended up too rich, but not a bad idea.</div></div>

Agreed on if it comes with an extension it makes sense to go for it. I think all the picks they're requesting is still too much and too high for a guy that has been struggling, but same can be said about ROR fetching that kind of return. So nothing surprises me anymore

Sujet: Barbi to Dallas for 2 D Prospects
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheMooterus</b></div><div>Don't see Dallas and St. Louis being good trade partners for Barbashev. St. Louis is going to want a division rival to pay more for him and Dallas isn't in the business of helping a division rival speed up a rebuild/retool by acquiescing to the price St. Louis will want.

If they weren't in the same division, I'd say that Harley for Barbashev is pretty close to fair value, assuming an extension for Barbashev was agreed upon at the time of the trade.</div></div>

That's the only caveat here is them being division rivals. I think Dallas will look elsewhere and have Barbi be a last resort kind of option. But they should be in a win-now mode since the west is so open this year. Trade for Barbi and give up a future piece in an attempt to win it all this year? I think it's possible, just unlikely for the reasons you had said, but with it being in the same division the Blues would want more from Dallas than any other team for the same reason
