Not a fan of this move from a Blues perspective. Blues have a young effective puck mover in Perunovich who could fill into that role. If the Blues were to target a young left handed defenseman on an ELC, I'd rather go for Hague.
On top of that, while the 2020 1st round is enticing from a Blues perspective, NJ wont give it up especially if they're trading Hall and getting a bottom 10 first in the draft

Canes pass, not good enough upside to trade a really good young defenseman on a good contract.

The thing that scares me about Perunovich is the fact he's tiny. Tiny guys rarely do well come playoff time. Ty Smith pretty much fits the definition of what you stated (he just needs his first ELC). I'd take Hague in a heartbeat, but I'm not sure Vegas will let him go at this point. I'd love to have Hague on the left side and Phillipe Meyers on the right side. Talk about two slabs of beef protecting the goalie!

I get your pick statement, but I look at it as Tolvanen looking like a top ten pick already. Bonino gives them toughness, some scoring, and flexibility on the bottom six along with playoff experience. I think both he and Edmunson are exactly what the Devils lack.

Grzelyck, Krug, Marchand are a few tiny guys who do well. Schwartz isn't huge and has done well. Besides, Ty Smith is only 5'11 and 175. He's not that much bigger than Perunovich.
As far as Tolvanen goes, he looks good, not good enough to justify possibly missing out on a couple of the big name guys next year. Devils do need an Edmundson type.

Chops, it's never a fair argument when someone brings up Marchand. That dude is amazing. I'm not sure I agree that Gryz and Krug "do well." Have they made it? Yes. Are they difference makers? I'm not sure I could say that at this point. Ty Smith's 5'11" is a bit bigger than Perunovich's 5'9", and that is also assuming he really is that tall. Short guys tend to get a bump on paper much more than big guys do. 5'11" is close to average, but I get ya. Smith isn't a big guy. Hague and P. Meyers are though, which is why I'd prefer both of them of these two guys all day and every day.

When I say "do well" I simply mean they don't struggle. Krug in game 6 for example looked great. But I feel like getting Ty Smith would be a lot like bringing up Mitch Reinke. Similar size and style of play.
Hague and Myers would be great. Wouldn't mind Hagg either. He's a gritty defenseman who can move the puck.

I also wouldn't mind going after Tuch from Vegas. If thw Blues could somehow package together Edmundson with someone (probably Kyrou) and get Tuch and Hague, I'd do it

Yikes. You scare me with the Reinke comparison! If that's what Smith becomes, then I take back everything I said, Chops. Confused

That might play since Kyrou is cheaper than Tuch and they need cap space for Karlsson. I think we'd have to throw in a pick though...perhaps a 3rd.

I mean, I think Smith has a higher ceiling, but they play a similar style game. I'm interested to see what a full year of NHL will do to Quinn Hughes to see how he handles it. He's also on the smaller side.

We would. And Vegas may not be interested in Edmundson since they have McNabb. But maybe an Edmundson, Kyrou, 2019 3rd for Tuch and Hague trade could work? Then Vegas can deal McNabb to someone else.
