Thread: Getting bigger and harder to play against
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MT9</b></div><div>I’m saying regarding Krugs contract it will be easier to move with 3 years left instead of 4 like the guy originally said. After next season it then moves to a Modified clause. Armstrong already had a deal with Philly last offseason with Philly for Sanheim. Not like he will be unmovable forever imo.

I was not meaning Krug is easier to trade than Chiarot or anything like that</div></div>

I understand.

But yeah, been down this Krug hole alot. Doesn't make sense for us with where we are, unless like I said significant compensation which the Blues aren't or at least shouldn't be willing to do.

I think the Blues are going to have a couple transition years. Ride out the few years left of Krug, Leddy, Saad (not saying he's bad). Stockpile some decent picks and prospects. Trade Buch for a decent haul. Then inject the youth and this team should be good again in a few years.
I think the next few years are going to be similar to this year. Fringe playoff team but not bad enough to get a top pick.

Thread: Devils Fans What is the ask from Detroit for 10
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Not expecting Edvinsson to be going anywhere….but couldn’t think of anyone else fitting our needs, timeline and able to return that pick. I don’t think Walman gets it done. Wings aren’t moving any core young forwards. ASP maybe fits value wise…but neither the skillset nor the position are needs for NJD. Who am I forgetting?</div></div>

Wallinder and Buium but they don't fit the timeline of ready now. Walman could be had I think. I don't believe he's a long term solution. We would need to find a replacement and that likely means overpaying in free agency. Walman and a second would be the offer but I don't think it's the best one. There is potential for a deal to be had I think. I don't hate Ras and #47. We would really need to push for someone like Joshua, Trenin or Carrier to replace him but it's doable. Chiarot would fit the mold of physical top 4 D but his contract might not be ideal and likely still need something added to it. Chiarot with some retention plus #47.
