I think that's a reasonable offer for both sides. I.e. it doesn't include Parayko or Thomas.

Yea I don't see why St. Louis would be willing trade Parayko.

I love both Thomas and Kyrou as prospects. Not sure who will project better, but I'd imagine the Blues would trade Kyrou over Thomas for a guy like O'Reilly. Plus I love Kyrou as a prospect ha

exactly every one showing a ROR trade with O'Reilly does understand the Blues (nor do i) but i wouldnt trade a solid top 4 D (maybe top 2 on Blues, again not sure on Blues hockey) for a Centre. Sure Blues need Centre but not at the price of Parayko, seems like a bad deal

I am presuming many of you above are Blues fans. I am a Sabre's fan and believe that would be a very fair trade. I presume it is made after July 1st. This is just about what DATM had to give up to get O'Reilly from Colorado.
Oh yes, Five stars for moving O'Reilly.

Same, I love both of those guys. Kyrou is flashier and Thomas is more solid all-around. I'd love to keep everyone we have, but to make an improvement like with O'Reilly, you can't make everyone untouchable. Thomas won't be moved because he's our only prospect capable of becoming a top 6 center. I saw Kyrou at prospect camp this week and he just makes a mockery of the 3v3 games, way too skilled. Would suck to lose him but it seems pretty realistic that he'd be on Botterill's wish list.

I'm a Sabres fan lol. Personally I want O'Reilly to stay. But if you can get that kind of return, take it.

Oops, I forgot, Five stars for trading O'Reilly
You are a very rare Sabre CF GM, you know that O'Reilly is not returning more than he was worth 3 years ago. Many think he will get more. He is older, has not let his team to the playoffs (in fact worse the last 2 years) and publicly stated that he did not give it all last year. Who wants a player who does not give 100% all of the time. I will watch for your comments as you are not blinded by your team loyalty.

I appreciate your comment. But I don't agree on the stuff on ROR. I've played hockey for years and know where he's coming from when he said that. I don't think he meant it as he wasn't giving 100% all the time. He meant it as it got hard to be happy to go to his place of employment everyday. It's not a matter of his on ice work ethic, he's one of the hardest working players on the team. They say if you're happy at your job you never work a day in your life.

Let's agree that is a good return for O'Reilly. You and I agree to that and it appears at least a few of the CF Blues GM agree as well.
A decent prospect = Kyrou, J (maybe better than Asplund, Nelson or Guhle, would make him the 5th best Sabre prospect behind Nylander, Dahlin, Ullmark and Mittelstadt) < Zadorov
decent middle 6 forward = Sobotka, V = Compher
always nice to have2019 = 1st round pick (STL) > 2015 31st over all
the more the merrier I always say = 2019 2nd round pick (STL) > nothing
Jamie McGinn = Grigorenko
