Sujet: Few moves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sicarius</b></div><div>In 2017-18 he played his first year as a Blue. I couldn’t fathom why the Blues gave him the slightest chance the next year. He went from one of the worst players I’ve ever seen in the NHL to a great support player. He had a great playoff run as well.

He’s not untouchable but he’s locked up for 3 more years @ 2.75m/yr. A team would have to overpay to get him at this point.</div></div>

I agree. Sunny's growth has been incredible. Makes me like a man like that...a guy who works hard and succeeds.

Sujet: All HOFers Locks IMO

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McGruff</b></div><div>Yeah certainly a good debate to be had.
I think I've been too liberal and handed out HOF rings like candy ha ha.
Marleau to me needs more "bling" in the NHL - a Cup or a Selke being his most likely target trophies.
* The "Triple G Club" has to sway it say for Staal BUT then there's Jay-Bo who is a "Triple G Member" and is he a HOF? I think most would say nope?</div></div>

I think JBo falls into the Hall of Very Good too. His iron man record might sneak him in though.

Sujet: Dunn to New Jersey

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Yeah, signing Scandella seems to have cap hand cuffed the Blues. If nothing else, you think the Blues could have waited.</div></div>

Unless Army already knows he won't be able to pay the asking price. Perhaps Petro and/or his agent has already told Armstrong he's not resigning for anything less than $x, and Army knows he won't have the cap space. If that is the case...if...then resigning Scandella is a solid move. I don't like the term, but he's a good defenseman.

Sujet: All HOFers Locks IMO

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McGruff</b></div><div>I didn't think so initially. But after looking at a few of these HOF boards today I'd say...
He's IN!
* The facts show a really solid NHL/INT success = WC Gold, OLY Gold, SCup & a TRIPLE GOLD CLUB GUY!</div></div>

He certainly has the hardware. I just feel about him like you feel about Marleau in the other post you linked. Hall of Very Good but not Hall of Fame. Even though I'm a St. Louisan, I think Pietrangelo also falls into the Hall of Very Good. Now, if the season returns, and he captains back-to back Cup teams (and perhaps even wins a second one), then he's a lock IMO.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McFaksaGOAT</b></div><div>if you have some dirt on GM Jim Nill. than possibly</div></div>

If I did, I'd use it to get some seats at a Dallas game. I was born in St. Louis, but when I was 6 months old, my parents went to school in Ft. Worth. I spent the next 8 years in Texas before we moved back home. I never hear the end of it since I'm a Cowboy fan. I'd love to see a game or two in Dallas. Both of my sisters are Texans. It'd be fun.

Sujet: One Player From Each Team That Is Most Likely To Make The HOF

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KakkoForMauriceRichardAward</b></div><div>Where do you think he'll sign?</div></div>

Florida. We pay state property taxes in Missouri. Florida is one of the states that do not. That right there gives him an additional $1.5 million. Lots of people think he wants to go back home to Toronto, but his wife is from the St. Louis area. If you've been married for any substantial length of time and you're a gentleman, you likely already know Mrs. Petro will have some input.

When Petro sits down to talk with his wife about a possible move out of St. Louis, he gets to say, "Honey, we can go to Toronto where it is colder longer and we'll have to pay about 50% of my salary to the Canadian government while I play for a playoff-level team." Or, "Honey, we can move to Florida where the sun, beach, and shopping is. There are also many direct flights back home to St. Louis that are available along with the fact that we'll actually make out like bandits regarding the fat salary that I'm getting ready to get paid. Add to that, I'll still play for a playoff-level team."

How would your wife reply?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McFaksaGOAT</b></div><div>Yeah that’s tricky cause I don’t think there’s a match there anyways. Stars would probably ask Tarasenko but I’m fairly confident STL would decline. DAL would likely have to add on that but I don’t think it’s too far off. Tarasenko is too high of an ask but than I feel like Schenn is too low of an ask</div></div>

I think the two of us are just farting in the wind, McFaksa. No way Blues move Tarasenko to Dallas. No way Dallas lets a stud RHD go to St. Louis. The Blues wouldn't have cap room for him either. Would the Stars be willing to take Faulk for Klingberg? (That comes with a wink. I know the answer.)

Sujet: All HOFers Locks IMO

I'm just curious, and please, anyone feel free to enlighten me...but please convince me that Staal belongs on the HoF list. I can side with just about everyone's arguments on this solid post, but I'm just not seeing Staal and a Hofer. Please assist.

Sujet: Few moves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aadoyle</b></div><div>If there are blues fans I am wondering what is Oskar Sundqvist worth. Thinking of a trade with him and want to hear from blue fans what his worth would be</div></div>

Sunny's value to the Blues is likely much higher than his figures would be to another team. He is the heart and soul of the penalty kill, makes the third/fourth lines dangerous, and has the flexibility of playing both center and RW. It would take an overpayment to pry Sunny away from the Blues. What a steal that was from the Penguins!

Sujet: Trades

This certainly is something to consider from the Blues perspective. Frees up cap. Fills the vacant backup role. Places a potential starter in line in case Binny gets hurt or sh*ts the bed. Georgiev is good enough that I don't think the Note loses too much from swapping Allen. He gets a bad rap most of the time, but he's lights out as a backup/part-time starter. He's also (which surprised me) shown a great attitude even though he lost his job. Good locker room guy. If I'm Armstrong, I see if Rangers take a 3rd instead and act accordingly.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McFaksaGOAT</b></div><div>Yeah if I’m Dallas or Winnipeg I don’t entertain that offer at all</div></div>

I agree with you, and it is likely both g.m.s do too. It's too bad that rivals don't trade much, because I'd love Klingberg on the Blues.

I'd be shocked if Winnipeg moved Ehlers to a rival. The same could be said for Klingberg.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>Faksa should get a second, he's really good defensively and above average 3C</div></div>

I agree and the same could be said for Bozak, but much of what I read on here says he's not worth a 2nd. Both are "glue" pieces needed for a winning team.

Tell Calgary to keep Jankowski. We'll just take the pick for Bozak.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheEarthmaster</b></div><div>Pietrangelo AND a first for Rickard freaking Rakell??? That's ludicrous. He's our captain and our elite top pairing RHD. How do you work that out to be ideal?</div></div>

Just guessing...but if the above poster is correct and Anaheim re-signs Petro, we get the 1st back. That looks like a Petro for Rakell and a 1st winner to me! :)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ForsbergForVezina</b></div><div>For a top prospect and a first round pick?

For that price, I think Kreider is your guy. Its not crazy to imaging him re-signing in St. Louis this summer either</div></div>

I agree that Kreider landing in STL is a likely possibility.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>STLBlues17</b></div><div>I bet you could get him for like a 2nd round pick, Sanford, and Walman</div></div>

I'd prefer that over a Kreider move and, depending on the cost, a Taffoli move. I love Taffoli, but not at an exorbitant cost.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>STLBlues17</b></div><div>He’s having a nice year but I’m positive you could get him for way cheaper</div></div>

Good. Then maybe I overshot. Perhaps Walker or Torp are the prospects (due to the extra contract year). I see Iafallo as a poor man's Schwartz who could thrive on either top six lines. I love how cheap he is too with having to re-sign Petro and Dunn.

Left wing scoring.

Sujet: The Blues Deadline Trade No One Saw Coming

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>ok - i get the fit here and i like the idea of going at this guy. He does have more value this year given he is on a good contract for two years. Still, this is not a first line guy outside of LA, and as such does not get that return. Where LA might require an overpay to pry him out, we are talking something like Sanford and a 2nd or Barbashev and a 4th</div></div>

My thinking is you add a poor-man's Jaden Schwartz at an extremely reasonable cost. If the thought is not to move Kostin, perhaps a guy like Toropchenko is moved with Sanford instead? Add to that he is signed for an additional year.

Sujet: The Blues Deadline Trade No One Saw Coming

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>STLBlues17</b></div><div>You’re seriously overestimating the talents of Alex Iafallo</div></div>

Really? The talk of the town for Kreider is a first and Sanford. Iafallo is a better goal scorer, which is what we need at left wing. He's also signed for next year at a very cheap contract. Swapping Sanford for Iafallo gives us more scoring for an additional year at roughly a $1.5 million bump.

Solid points throughout. I totally agree with:

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheEarthmaster</b></div><div>this team really needs another dedicated LW behind Schwartz for the playoffs if they need anything.</div></div>
