That Schenn trade is interesting, wonder what Blues fans think of it.

I like it a lot, and I’d like to get a third team in the trade to flip Brassard for more assets.

I think it'd be pretty easy for the Blues to flip Brassard on their own, wouldn't need to make it a 3-way trade.

Pens already said that they will play Blueger at center if he plays. They don’t want him playing wing.

Does he still get a first? I wouldn’t think so.

Maybe not a first but for sure a 2nd plus maybe a B-grade prospect or mid round pick.

Definitely don't hate it. Would prefer just a Brassard for Bozak swap but don't think Pens could fit the cap.

Thats a lot for Schenn, I am not convinced he would be worth the price. Maybe with retention so you can get more in for the duration of his contract.

I would think he still gets a first, he can play 2C on most teams still and is a monster in the playoffs. Even for the Pens last year before he got hurt he was over a PPG against the Flyers in the first round. I don't know who would want to give their 1st for him, but I do think he is worth that IMO

Schenn, cully, boyle can all play wing so thats okay, i was thinking playoff lines but for regular season id move Schenn and Kessel into the top six for jake-sid-horny and schenn-geno-kessel

Bozak has good chemistry with Kessel. Could be worth a shot.

Get rid of Maata (not to St. Louis) and Brassard and it could work.

Now it’s not a lateral move. Now it’s a 3c + a 4D for a 3c

Bozak is probably a low end 2c. Maata has been a whipping boy for the pens so now would be a good time to move him.

So is Brassard. Now would be the worst possible time to trade a dman.
