One of the more realistic Hall trades I have seen, good job.

That's a great trade, in my opinion.

Dunn wouldn't be traded for a rental just saying. Change Dunn for Bortuzzo or Gunnarsson and change Fabbri for Kostin

I don't like the idea of taking from the NHL roster to add a rental - it's a little counterintuitive. And if Hall walks this trade looks really bad unless there's another banner hanging...

I'd rather try something around a prospect like Kyrou or Kostin and picks unless there is some way to guarantee a Hall extension (probably unlikely, especially when Pietrangelo is looking for that money).

I get that for sure, but I feel like the Blues are in a spot where this could benefit them in a few ways. The team is in the middle of a run here after winning last year, so that window is open and you want to win now more than keep a young asset long term. With Tarasenko down for a long time, they may be desperate to add something significant to the top 6. Pietrangelo is due for a raise and Im not sure there is a good amount of money to pay Dunn next year, although I guess a Lebanc type situation could happen. This move also frees a lot of money for this year and next because of Allen and there will be rental goalies out there for stable backups. Along with Hall being a rental type asset that hasnt been available yet, Stone being the closest thing to it, but Hall has the MVP season and a bit more of an offensive ceiling. Also if this is a deal that gets done sooner rather than later, you would get over half a season of Hall, which is worth more than lets say 25 or so games and then playoffs.

Excellent trade!

You can forget Dunn, dude. Try again.

I like this. Subtract Fabbri and the conditional 3rd and add Kostin???
