Thread: Interesting pieces if you want Buch this summer

I wouldn’t mind returns from Detroit or Philly.

DET: 2024 1st + Wallinder
PHI: 2024 1st (FLA) + Bonk

Thread: Test for hronek

Hanifin won’t sign in St. Louis. I don’t think the Hronek deal helps us in the long term when we could be drafting a RD with that pick. Also, Faulk isn’t waiving

Thread: Who Says No

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tsmash</b></div><div>For stl, Armstrong has specifically said he wants players close in age to Thomas and kyrou. They are both like 24 or 25 so a 26 year old is right in line with what they want.

Definitely not sure that buch would go there but that seems like good value for a guy on the last year of his contract. A young #2/3 defenseman plus a first is pretty good. I do think they would want the 24 first though</div></div>

Perhaps it’s a draft day trade?

Thread: Who Says No

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>I believe both squads would pass. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t imagine that St Louis would want a 26 year old Lindgren, instead would want a younger player, or prospect (preferably defence).

New York gets a good top 6 forward, sure, however, they are filling a hole to gain another one here. Lindgren is a huge part of their defence. Loosing him would make that defence core horrible!</div></div>

That all makes sense. Wonder who’d be a good partner for St. Louis in a Buchnevich trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JMSTL2019</b></div><div>I’d say if Jiricek is available we need to take him. Chernyshov and Connelly would be good LW additions.</div></div>

His injuries make me weary. I think Jiricek is available at 16 no doubt. Maybe he is the right pick to make. I think he doesn’t have top pairing potential but at least middle pairing. He is more of a high floor than high ceiling pick.

Woah dude, that is big brain. Idk how we can even get his brother via trade but maybe free agency later down the road

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>noted</b></div><div>I’d agree but don’t know that team in top 11 would go for that. Would prob need to use own 2nd rd pick minimally to make that happen</div></div>

New Jersey is the only team I can see doing that. We are kind of in no mans land right now. If all defense are taken I don’t think we take Jiricek at 16. Id rather take a forward and grab 2 defenseman in the 2nd round

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>noted</b></div><div>I honestly don’t know. Probably only like 3rd rd pick.

He shows promise at times but his dzone coverage is not great and he can’t influence bigger guys in front of net</div></div>

Also, I think we really need to move up in the draft. Use that TOR 2nd with our first and move up 4 spots. I think we need top 11 to get one of the defenseman with true Top 4 potential

What do we get back for Scotty P? And then maybe we sign a defenseman to a 4-year deal too

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 31 at 12:09 a.m.

Thread: Lets rant Blues fans

I would say we do the following.

2024 Offseason
Draft: RD Carter Yakemchuck
Extend: Perunovich (2 years)
Sign: Stephenson (4 years)
Trade: Buchnevich (1st + prospect)

Neighbours - Thomas - Kyrou
Saad - Stephenson - Snuggerud
Bolduc - Schenn - Hayes
Toropchenko - Sunny - Walker
Leddy - Parayko
Krug - Kessel
Perunovich - Faulk
Binnington
Hofer

2025 Offseason
Draft: LD Matthew Schaefer and Center (idk who)
Extend: Neighbours (2 years), Toropchenko (2 years), Hofer (2 years)
Sign: Gavrikov (3 years - time for when Schaefer is ready)
Acquire: Brady Tkachuk for Bolduc + 2026 1st + 2027 2nd + another prospect
Move: Hayes and Krug

Tkachuk - Thomas - Snuggerud
Neighbours - Stephenson - Kyrou
Schenn - Dvorsky - Saad
Toropchenko - Dean - Sunny
Gavrikov - Parayko
Leddy - Faulk
Perunovich - Kessel
Binnington
Hofer

Thread: Trading Up in the Draft

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dgibb10</b></div><div>I’ve always been in favour of, unless we win the lottery for Celebrini, to go get as much value as possible with the pick. Then I’d also use the blues pick to get get a goalie or a dman.

For example if I could turn 9th overall+like a 2nd+3rd into buchnevich, Marcus Pettersson, and Ullmark. That would be ideal. Maybe some guys with more term but who knows. Lots of options</div></div>

Plenty of options. I wonder what Ullmark is worth from a trade perspective

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>I love the idea,of course, but you are WILDLY overpaying. We would add like our 2nd or something. Maybe a 2nd and 3rd. Not Buch half retained.</div></div>

Yeah just getting the idea out there since the way we are playing we are dropping out from the 3 defenseman I want.

We gotta get a rid of either Krug, Leddy, or Perunovich then if we get a different LD

What about Krug with $2m retained for Graves? I think that’s better for us than Saad for Graves

Thread: 2024 mock draft part 1

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BDHockey</b></div><div>I wouldn't purely because of injury history, but if the scouting/drafting team felt confident that they could bring Jiricek up to Top 4 caliber then I trust them.

Yakemchuk just feels like a lesser version of Roman Josi and to me looks like a great top pairing D.

My ultimate dream would be to grab Dickinson this year and Hensler next year and then start truly pushing for the wild card after that.</div></div>

If the reverse, I wouldn’t mind Yakemchuk this year and Schaefer next year. Then we snag a RW in 2026

Thread: Playoffs part 1

Unfortunately, I think we are stuck with that D-Core for one more season with all the NTC offered. I think we need to move on from at least Hayes or Saad maybe both. I want to sign a 2C whether that’s Stephenson or Monahan. I wouldn’t mind trading Buchnevich too, whether that’s during the summer or maybe give it a run and move him at the deadline if we are out again. I think we will see a shakeup take place starting 2025-26 season when we have more flexibility with the lineup.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 9 at 9:44 p.m.

Thread: Next Year after we miss Yoffs

I think we need to trade Hayes and then one of Saad or Buchnevich. I’d rather get a better return so maybe we deal Buchnevich and get a promising Top 4D back. Sign a 2C and move Schenn to the 3C role. I’m fine with Perron and think he’s a good veteran presence. Then perhaps the year after we have Dvorsky full-time as the 3C and develop him with Schenn and Bolduc.

Thread: Where do we go from here

Wonder if we move people in the offseason. I mean we are 3-6-1 in our last 10. I don’t think we are making the playoffs. But maybe Buchnevich to Buffalo for a package including Samuelsson and try to move Krug or Leddy in the summer?

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 6 at 2:19 p.m.

Thread: Isles Options

I would do Romanov, 2024 1st, 2025 2nd for Buchnevich (50% retained) and Perunovich.
