Thread: retool

I'd go up to a 2nd for sure.

Thread: More ReTool

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AC14</b></div><div>If our direction is to be worse next season than this I don't dislike any of the moves aside from the Leddy to Pittsburgh move.

However, as exciting as it is picking 10th vs 16th, I don't think it makes all too much of a difference once you look 5 years down the road. Don't get me wrong I would love for the Blues to trade up, but I don't think we're at the point where we can trade Binnington and not crumble. We may not make playoffs again next year, but after this year you have to expect the expectation would be to do so from the front office and from the players alone. Culture and belief in being able to win isn't something that's really too popular on here because you can't quantify it and compare. But I'd venture to guess if we made 2 or 3 moves to sell off pieces and finished towards the bottom of the league next year it would be crippling to the young core that we're building right now.</div></div>

Well said. Couldn't agree more.

Thread: blues clues

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>He's going to be a fine all around top 4 D, his offensive ceiling that was there in College isn't, but he's becoming outright good at defense and he's an above average skater. Outlet passes are good, decision making is good, can play on his off side pretty well. Hence why we're not tossing him in. Any value difference is covered between Kyrou and Zegras is covered by Z being younger, cheaper, and able to play center.</div></div>

What would you say the acquisition cost for LaCombe is then, assuming he were on the market?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AC14</b></div><div>You wouldn't trade Buch + Leddy for Guentzel and 2 1sts? Granted, it's probably too late to do these flips people like to talk about. But that could very easily equate out to a massive haul and would have no long term committment to retention beyond this year. I don't see a real downside here especially since NJD isn't a guarantee to make the playoffs.</div></div>

This is just an idea if the Isles don't rebound and decide to sell. Very unlikely but thought the value for both sides might be adequate.

Gotta think the Blues take that. Sucks retaining that much that long but I don't see another way to move Krug without buying out at this point.

The trade is just an idea that likely wouldn't happen. I figured with how good LA is playing maybe they can recoup a pick shipping out someone they don't really need.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HolyJumpin81</b></div><div>Fair point lol but our prospects are a bit away from making an impact and we can't really tear it down yet so we gotta start somewhere</div></div>

Armstrong will continue to let our stud prospects develop while continuing to try to field a somewhat competitive NHL club. Until our prospects are NHL ready and some of our aging vets filter out, the Blues will be in the mushy middle. Nothing wrong with that, but it's banking on these prospects developing.

In what realm of the multiverse does STL start shipping out assets when they can't win two games in a row? It's going to be a few years before STL makes a trade like this.
