Quoting: Twins1568
Good job explaining all your moves. Its fun to read something like that.
1st, I think Kyrou and Thomas signings are too much money.
2nd, I don't think we need to pay Seattle to take Barbie, plus Mikkola is showing very good sign of a though rugged dman that want to learn and fight. I would keep him.
3rd, the trade for Dunn and Blais are good ones even if I would keep Blais. For the Vancouver one, I think we can wait and give Parayko another healthy season before pulling the trigger, even if Miller is exactly the kind of guy St Louis want.
4th, I would prefer to see Faulk playing on his good side rather than with Hamilton. Also that would make a hell of a paycheck for our D core.
5th, if Maroon wins another cup with TBL maybe he will stay there.
Last but not least, if I could pay for Seattle to take someone it would be Sanford.
I appreciate the positivity
1) Yes, Thomas and Kyrou are probably overvalued here, I think realistically Thomas does get a Rope Hintz deal and Kyrou gets a 2 yr deal between 2.75-3.25M AAV
2) I think if Blues trade Dunn prior to the expansion draft, let Seattle pick who they want naturally, if that's Sanford great, if it's Barbashev great
3) I agree about the trades too. I love Blais, but that RD prospect might be a major appeal. I put a disclosure at the bottom with Parayko staying and Blues signing RNH (if you wanna see that in a post form I can do that too - just lmk)
4) I didn't want Faulk in Hamilton's shadow so I put them together
5) Maroon realistically stays in TB, Blues probably try for a veteran guy on a 1 year deal
