Grabner is 29 years old. His best year in the league is 52 points. The next best season is this year with 35 points. That is the definition of inconsistency. Rangers fans may think it would be a good deal with Grabner as the center piece in a deal for Shattenkirk but it would only be a good deal for the Rangers lol
The Blues don't need wings. They don't need RHD either. They're greatest need is a real center for Tarasenko. Shattenkirk isn't going to return a true #1 C but a player like Tyler Johnson or a Henrique would do wonders.
The Blues have too many LW's in Fabbri, Steen, Schwartz, & Perron. Perron has been playing RW all year. Grabner is having a little better year than Perron but I doubt he'd push Perron to the 3rd line. It's really a moot point because Grabner just isn't a need. If you were the GM of the Blues would you trade Shattenkirk, the most sought after player at the TDL, for Grabner, a player that doesn't fill a need??
