I worry about how we'd replace Faulk. I think it's more ideal to shop Krug as he's replaceable. The issue with offseason speculation in a deal like this is the market for RHD is pretty barren as is. If this were a draft day trade I could see how it could work out favorably for the Blues. But if it were to be afterwards, I don't know if you can really feel comfortable with Kessel as a speculative 2RHD going into a season. Alot can obviously change, and I get the general idea behind it is trying to clear out some spots on defense while getting a prospect. But it further log jams our 2/3/depth LHD situation while creating a bigger hole. It's may be a necessity that has to be lived with though.
