Kings accept

Pettersson for Kostin, 4th

No interest in Kostin.

I keep seeing pens fans trade him on here for a 3rd so I figure that’s a better offer than those, kostin still has some potential definitely needs a change of scenery

That's a big no on Tarasanko. You want a 80 point point producer last year for a 2nd and a 3rd?

Pens fans are still upset over the Reaves, 2nd for Sundqvist, 1st trade. For some idiotic reason they think that the Pens would have taken Kostin with the first even though Allvin has relatedly said that they would have taken Lauzon at 31 anyway. It is one of the "pure stupidity" things that keeps coming up from Pens fans. Plus, they also ignore tat 5 ears later Kostin is basically as much of an NHL player as Lauzon is, even though Lauzon was injured and "retired".

It’s definitely more than that on the return. Lizzote has great underlying numbers and is a great cost controlled depth piece. Durzi is just starting to turn into a great player, who we could trade if we wanted but I kept him in the roster cause he’s a definite upgrade over bortz. And then a 3rd. I would want a first and would take a second if LA would take that but on ACGM I tend to error on the side of the opposing teams favor

The blues already have a half dozen or other players that are looking to make the roster that best out Lizzote. None of this package even remotely replaces a 35 goal scorer 80 point producing player. If Tarasanko gets traded, it's at the deadline and not during the off-season for scraps
