2024-2025 Blues Trade Proposals Thread.

If Adam Jiricek doesn’t have a strong finish to the season I’ll be worried. Not yet though. Hopefully he’s able to play at the WJC. In his 1 period of action as a 17 year old I thought he looked pretty good. I think he’ll have a strong WJC playing with his countrymen and carry that confidence back to the OHL for a strong second half.

This is kind of my thoughts on the Jiricek situation as well. I wasn't super high on us picking Adam and with all the injuries I am pretty worried about his development as well, wouldn't say I am ready to jump ship on him completely but if we did I wouldn't be upset about it. I don't really get the need to go grab his brother, who according to Jacket's fans hasn't really progressed at all the last couple years and then has a bad attitude about it as well on top of that. I know dmen generally take longer to develop so I would be willing to take a chance on him but I am not giving up a 1st or Bolduc or any premium asset to get him here.

There's no way im selling low on a player we just drafted 6 months ago. Defensemen usually take years to develop, i give the kid a much bigger leash, especially with our current roster needs.

That's why I said I am not ready to give up on him, if we are moving on from him I would think it would be something similar to a Rundblad or Bokk situation where is included in a trade for an upgrade, not talking about just dumping him to dump him. I agree that he isn't going anywhere anytime soon, just reiterating that missing 2 consecutive seasons in such a crucial period for development is very concerning.
