Blues take that. Anyone that says otherwise is a homer. Gotta give to get.

Agreed. Tough giving up Kyrou but it’s worth it to get MT.

They don't. They won't give up a 23 point per game player on top of a 1st and their previous 1st round pick for a 25 year old point per game player

Fwiw Tkachuk is a little more than a point per game player. And he has other strengths too.

How the hell did you just call 2 players from the same draft year 2 years apart? Tkachuk is 5 months and 25 days older than Kyrou, that's it. Tkachuk is a drastically better player than Kyrou with his way above expected production.

24, not 25. I didn't have the right age. That stated, Blues still don't make the deal. They wouldn't trade one young top line talent for another, it's counter productive. I love Tkachuk and the Blues need someone like him, but not at the expanse of Kyrou or Thomas.

He does and the Blues need a player if his caliber. They still don't trade Kyrou plus two 1st round picks for him.

Tkachuk starts with Robert Thomas. Whether Blues fans like it or not, the reality is if you wanna get top line players you gotta give up extremely good assets. This doesn’t get Tkachuk.

Calgary doesn't consider that, The drop off from Tkachuk to Kyrou is pretty massive and a late 1st + Bolduc doesn't make up that gap. Not to mention adding in picks, Poirier, and taking on Scandella's anchor

St. Louis definitely does that. Idk about paying him 10 mil though lol really hoping he'd take below 9 to play in the hometown and not gimp other parts of the team.
