Description

I don't think the Blues aren't getting anything good for Tarasenko. We should all be bracing for a nothing burger return. Hopefully the Blues don't have to eat a bad contract or retain. No leverage and it sounds like they've already been quietly trying things to no avail. Hopefully they find a good deal but I'm not holding my breath.

If they can clear Tarasenko's cap without getting any salary back and use it to their advantage to sign Saad + trade for Killorn it's a good trade.

Agreed, I think that's sort of a best case at this point.

i think the devils do that they are looking for shooters and they have the space to take the whole caphit. but vladdy does have a ntc so he would have to say yes to any trade.

Not sure why you feel that way, he'd probably have a lot of suitors, which drives the price. But yeah, I kinda think he ain;t going anywhere, and that is fine with me.

How would the deal look if NJ were to take both Tarasenko and Dunn? I wouldn’t think the price would be astronomical if they take the full salary. From the roster I’d be willing to move johnsson Wood or zacha so what would a package look like around any of those?
