Is olo not a mid-top 6 winger? Its certainly a reasonable offer - may not be an eagle offer but prob close to on par or bogey for value/need

I also doubt they sign pasta. Especially bc they will prob just sign Kyrou. Just posted this as an option - recency bias on RFA deals have made me think he's not untouchable


We already have our version of ollofson in Barbashev. What we need is high end talent which Kyrou is. Kyrou is also only 23 years old and has plenty of control left. It's an easy no deal. Oloffson and a middle first isn't that valuable compared to a PPG RFA who has plenty of control and is young. The blues have 24 million in cap space for next year and the only big people they have to resign are ROR and Kyrou (they aren't resigning Tarasenko). They have plenty of space so If you want Kyrou it's going to have to be a massive overpay because all indications point to the blues resigning him to a similar deal as Robert Thomas

So... if you look above; its ostlund, a mid 1st, likely an early-mid 2nd in a deep draft, and olo - could maybe make the 2nd a 1st if olo doesn't re-sign w/ the blues

If you are going to argue at least dont neglect key facts about what you're arguing about. The above is arguably an overpay regardless. Ostlund was considered top 1-2 centres from Europe this draft

Ok So I didn't see the entire offer but it still not enough for the blues to move Kyrou. He's a 23 year old player coming a PPG season who the blues have no intention of moving. IF you really want Kyrou your going to have to offer something ridiculous for them to even consider it. Kyrou would have been on the table for Matthew Tkachuk and that's the type of player the blues would trade him for, obviously they would have to add in that situation. The thing is that the blues have no reason or indication to moving him so Kyrou's value to them is a lot higher that most would deem reasonable. Also take into consideration that the blues are competing right now. Your offer does nothing to help them compete this year and instead makes them worse. If the blues do sell off they would trade Tarasenko/Barbashev well before they trade Kyrou as he is young enough to retool around. Your offer isn't appealing to the blues considering the blues want to compete. Also Ostlund is in the B tier of prospects. He is good but everyone has prospects like him

Is he even a top 6 W on Buffalo? On St. Louis, he sure as hell ain't. And Chief would probably bench his lazy ass anyway. This is a trash offer. Big time trash.
