Getting a center

Created by: andmei
Team: 2016-17 St. Louis Blues
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 15, 2017
Published: Jan. 15, 2017
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Arizona gets a nice pick and a potential top 4 D man who's just about NHL ready. Yak is involved for cap reasons and he'll get a chance to play more consistently in what could be a last ditch effort to revitalize his career.
Blues get center depth which is desperately needed who is defensively responsible and can provide some gritt which the team lost a lot of this offseason.
What cha think??

I think it's an excellent return for Arizona. Exactly what they'd be looking for. They need defense prospects, and a second round pick doesn't hurt either.

Also, since a lot of fans in Arizona don't know hockey, if they hear they just acquired a former first overall pick, they might get a few more people at the games haha

makes sense and might be the small move the Blues need to help them in the playoffs.

I like this deal. I'd switch Lehtera and Hanzal though since Hanzal is a better player overall.
