First things first, the Blues have loads of scoring depth, especially on the wings. I'd love to have Sharangovich, but spending a 23 1st on a luxury buy? Mmm I dunno. If it was a need, then maybe.
Secondly, this thing where everyone agrees Scandella is tragic and all that is really off the mark. Nobody seems to have noticed dude has played really quite well since they stopped making him run top pairing matchups, and that was a looong time ago. He is still a plus skater. As a 3rd pairing/PK guy, he's solid, believe it or not.
Overpaid by .5-1M? Sure. A terrible player? Nah.
