Description

Would there be a deal to make around these pieces?

Montreal gets: A nice RW NHL ready prospect, late 1st round pick and sheds Byron's salary (Minus some retain).
ST-Louis: Frees up 8.1M$ on cap space (Including Byron's contract), get a decent bottom six with elite speed and -what I think will be- a middle third rounder. *Byron could very well be taken by Seattle.

A big trade that's not likely to happen if we're realistic but I'm still curious. From the Montreal point of view I'd be down for that, I like Kyrou and we don't need the cap space this year anyways.

No. Bozak is worth a 3rd, and I can only assume you are trying to get a 1st for taking Steen. That means you want Kyrou for old ass, overpaid Paul friggin' Byron, who has a deal for three more years? You're straight trippin', dude. And you're math is waaaay off, as through the length of Byron's deal, this saves us $2M and change in cap space.

Steen has a NTC, why would he waive just to be bought out by Habs?
Blues can buy him out themselves.

To be honest my target's Kyrou and I just kept adding guys to make it unrealistic. In the end what would be a fair offer for Kyrou? With Blais emergency I think he could be a guy that gets moved for either cap space or picks. What do you think?

We aren't trading Kyrou. Or really, anyone who makes peanuts and contributes.

Kyrou would be the main piece coming back if you moved Gallagher at the deadline, even then I’m not sure because we didn’t give him up when trading for ROR.
