Description
VT91 has as much contract control as AM34, is only 7.5 AAV, and proven all-star.

Edmundson RFA controlled, outstanding shut-down D who can also shoot the puck.

Barbashev, also RFA, provides stability for VT91's transition and fills the brief center void that AM34's departure causes.

Robert Thomas is tied for 3rd in OHL ppg as an 18 year old.

STL's Paul Stastny leaves next year, freeing up the cap space to sign AM34 to his gigantic contract. Schenn moves to 2C, but preferably Fabbri returns from the dead and fills that void.

Vladamir Tarasenko's void is filled by Kyrou, Kostin, or Thompson.

Whatever I am bored.

EDIT:

Modified option of VT91, Parayko, and Barbashev for AM34 and Polak

No Colton Parayko coming back?

Leafs ask Parayko and Tarasenko and possibly more.

No hard feelings. Its not meant to be ranked as a legit trade.

I could see Senko, Barby, and Parayko for AM34 and Polak.

STL doesn't have anybody to take Parayko's minutes, so if he were moved we'd need minutes back.

Honestly that Matthews and Polak for package looks tempting just so Leafs get rid of Polak but no to the trade. Best offer I've seen though.

Yeah, in reality, if AM34 were moved, you'd need a really damn good center coming back - maybe a downgrade, but something the Blues do not have.

Still fun for me to kill time while my Steelers lose frown

I'm going to find another center that is untouchable and try to trade for him, brb! lol. Anything to take my mind off this horrible game.
