Blues should not give up Mikkola to dump Tarasenko. Also think the Palat trade is slightly too much. Bump down the pick. Having Palat, Hyman and Schwartz seems redundant. Don't think they would sign all 3. Don't have great confidence in our D either.
It's not an unreasonable ACGM just values seem slightly off.

It was suppose to be Walman, misclicked there. Figuered Schwartz and Palat expired after this year making room for Neighbors to come up. Giving the Blues the option to bring one of them back. Also, if Neighbors is ready next year then the they could very well let Schwartz walk instead of signing him. Perunovich can play both right and left side so he could rotate in on both sides giving Mikkola and Bortz days off

I have no trouble accepting that trade for Los Angeles.

Is Tarasenko really a dump at this point? Is it just cause he can't stay healthy?

Detroit accepts.

They might be able to get more for him, however his injuries seem to effected his shot, but no one really knows. A full offseason not rehabbing a shoulder could return him to form

Los Angeles - “After video review, we got a deal!”

Torpechenko Looks very Good in the khl.

That LA trade is just wacky. Zero chance of that.

nah, thats about what the Blues can get for Tarasenko right now

Plus Walman. So why do it then? That's not worth it.
