I'm assuming you mean Skinner, and not Robertson. If you did then no. No! We're not doing this. Hunter Skinner was in the AHL for 2 years and then got demoted to the ECHL. He's included solely so that the Rangers can stay under the contract limit while acquiring both Mikkola and Tarasenko. He's not a prospect. We'll be lucky if he becomes Steve Santini. He's nothing. Don't talk yourself into nothing.

With Leddy, yeah, presumably. And his buyout ain;t that bad, but we all know Army is not going to swallow his pride to do it. However, there are going to be some teams who need to step up their LD and PP1 game this summer. It's still a minor longshot, but I could see a Krug taker emerging. Of course, he needs to get fit and finish the season strong for that to happen.

I think one of the biggest reasons Lind hasn't been in the NHL more is the Kraken's offensive depth, with the bottom six forwards ahead of him providing more offensively while still being capable defenders.

Prolific is a bit of a stretch and he's about average size, but yes, his skating is what holds him back from being a genuine NHLer.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fozziebear6</b></div><div>I would have to politely disagree. If ROR and VT come back and look healthy, I think they both net a 1st rd'r +. I think Barbie and the rest could net at least a 2nd, 3rd and maybe another prospect. VT is a goal scorer that all teams should covet, the others play a tough style that teams like in the playoffs and all have more than enough o-fence to help any playoff team. Just my opinion.</div></div>
If that is what happens that would be awesome, of course. I'm just pessimistic because I feel there's some warning signs- a few contending teams without firsts (Dallas, Tampa), a few contending teams in undesirable locations (Calgary, Winnipeg), a few contending teams with seemingly little interest in a big forward upgrade (Carolina, LA, Seattle), a few teams so close to the bubble they might not buy (Colorado, NYI, Washington, Pittsburgh), a crowded market at forward (Horvat, Kane, Meier, Toews) and the fact that the guys we're selling haven't played very well. And the feeling I have that if Armstrong doesn't get what he wants for O'Reilly and Barbashev he's absolutely going to just turn around and offer them a contract instead of taking a bath on those trades. The best case scenario is that Armstrong's able to talk up the O'Reilly intangibles like Montreal did with Chiarot, but there was 1st Round Pick buzz around him for awhile that isn't there for O'Reilly right now.
This is one of the big reasons I'm so adamant about being open to trading with Winnipeg, with Dallas, with Colorado. Some people have such an aversion to that, but if Winnipeg is offering us a 1st and Heinola for O'Reilly and Carolina is offering us a 2nd and like, Noel Gunler...you gotta take the first one, even if it means trading in Division.

Leddy I think you just have to ride out, it's 3 more years and the cap hit isn't awful and if you get some younger defensemen to supplant him he can be a sheltered 3rd pair guy and it's ok, especially if they're going to spend half of that time reloading anyway. Not an ideal use of cap space maybe but it's probably going to be more difficult to move him than is worth it. I'd rather just ride it out than spend a 2nd for Arizona to take him.
Krug is such a tough one. You simply can't ride out a 6.5 million dollar contract for four more years, especially when you're probably going to be riding out declines for Faulk, Parayko, Schenn and, from the looks of it, Binnington at roughly the same time (Some would say those declines are already here). And he has pretty much total control. You probably have to take a bad contract back. Maybe if you can catch Chuck Fletcher in one of his moods you can orchestrate a Krug for Provorov swap of some ilk. I don't care for Ivan Provorov (he's been even worse than Krug this year) but it's at least only two more years instead of four.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AC14</b></div><div>Can Sprong Hockey?</div></div>
Sprong scores a lot of goals for the ice time he gets. He's a good player.
But he's a bottom sixer, and the Blues have a lot of young bottom sixers lying around, either as prospects like Neighbours and presumably Bolduc/Snuggerud soon or as "this is what they probably are" guys like Alexadrov, Brown, Toropchenko. The Blues also don't exactly have trouble scoring. If they're going to be kind of a middling team for the next couple years, why invest in a soon-to-be 26 year old bottom six player who scores over giving your younger guys that opportunity? They stand a better chance of actually being here once the Blues build back to contention.
Perunovich might just end up being a less good Torey Krug on a team that already has Torey Krug but considering how poor our defense is, that Perunovich's value has crated after all these injuries, and the fact that we have zero other defense prospects with top four upside in the system the Blues are probably better off just seeing what they got. Seems like the worst case scenario is more or less the status quo, where he either doesn't stick at the NHL or becomes a third pairing offense guy. Even if he becomes Torey Krug 2.0, there's a demand for that kind of player at a lower age and contract that would probably net you more than Sprong in the future.

I think Tarasenko is all but certain to be traded, seeing as he's not re-signing here and the Blue are playing fine without him. But the other guys, it might be a toss up. There's a lot of guys on the market, and there's a lot of teams that are (rightfully) more focused on moving as high up in the draft as possible. People are unwilling to move 2023 picks. They should still sell because I don't really want them to re-sign any of these guys but I don't know if there will be the market that will allow Armstrong to radically reshape the franchise like he did in 2017/2018. Really depends on if he can talk up O'Reilly despite his mediocre play and how aggressively Tarasenko will use his NTC against the Blues.

If the Blues DONT Sell
First off, I appreciate the thought you've put into considering this from different sides.
I think Seattle may hold some interest in a defenseman like Perunovich, as special teams is still a work in progress and they could still use some more people in the Blueline Pipeline. That being said, I'm not sure they'd want to give up Sprong to make that happen, as he's carved out a regular role with the team and still has RFA control, meaning he has the potential to be a long term piece of the Kraken puzzle. I think if Seattle went after Perunovich, they'd rather use draft capital or move Donato or Geekie before Sprong. I guess we'll see though.

Okay...
Tarasenko and O'Reilly, I don;t even know right now. Need to wait until they're back.
Acciari and Mikkola could probably be had at the TDL for a 3rd or so.
Barbashev, I'm not sure. They might extend him if the AAV is nice. If not, probably a 2nd-ish.
Greiss can be had for a whatever pick. He played well last night, but meh. I'd just call up Hofer.
And if there's any way to do it with too much pain, I'd try to move Krug (although he's another one who needs to get back on the ice first) or Leddy. Probably not gonna happen, but I'd try. Overall, though, I'm in a holding pattern. It would take an offer I cannot refuse to move anyone right now.

No way Seattle wants Krug. The get worse this season and in the future with Krug's play and bloated contract. Beside Krug doesn't waive for the West Coast.
Barbashev isn't that special. and certainly hasn't been a good playoff performer.
A lot for Isles to give up and still might miss the playoffs
Leafs....can't see them trading Kampf. So it's really Minten, and 1st and 3rd for ROR. To me it's pricey especially the Leafs really only centre Minten prospect for ROR.

I don't think Seattle's going to have a ton of interest in taking on Krug's contract for the next several seasons. Even if he's still a productive player right now, that could very easily change and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't want to run the risk of being stuck with such an albatross contract. Plus the fact that he's out injured for at least the next few weeks doesn't help matters.
I also doubt Seattle would want to swap out one of their better defensive d-men in Soucy for an offensive d-man in Krug, which would upset the defensive balance somewhat. While it's true they could use some help on the power play, there are plenty of more affordable options the Kraken could pursue to aid in that area rather than tie themselves to Krug through 2027.
