What would Blues fans want for Saad from PIT? Any interest in like Acciari and a 3rd?

I'm sure a lot of Blues fans would be happy to send Saad home to Pittsburgh, but I'm not sure about Acciari as the main return simply because we already have two centers in Faksa and Sundqvist that are perfectly fine on the fourth line but not ideal on the third line. I feel like Acciari falls into that same category. I'd prefer a 3C with a little more offensive update if possible. Not sure if Saad would fetch that guy on his own but that's what I'd aim for.

So like a Kevin Hayes type :P

I wonder how the Blues view Marcus Sylvegard.

If they think he’s ready for a showing I wonder if he gets a call up before Saad were moved. You’d probably want to see him in action, or whomever in the ahl would be the first middle 6 winger call up, before you traded Saad since whoever that is becomes 1-2 injuries away from the nhl once Saad is gone.

Apparently Friedman on HNIC is saying that Blues are looking for a new home for Saad, and He is willing to willing to consider waiving his NTC.
Good. I’m so tired of watching him skate around lazily out there and do nothing.

I’d take a 3rd round pick for him straight up.

Maybe we package Perunovich with him to bring in a different forward. It’s obvious Scotty isn’t in our plans either.

I absolutely agree. I'm hoping if the Blues say "fine we will retain" they can get it bumped up to a 2nd.

I’d like a 2nd for Saad, but I think a 3rd is more realistic.
I think we can pull a second for Saad but what is the destination and does he wave the NTC? Also, since we have a glut of 3rd line defensemen now that will likely not see any playing time, are we shopping them as well? Do they package with Saad or separately?
