2024-2025 Blues Trade Proposals Thread.

Concern is development of the players currently on the roster. I guess to a degree you’re right. But you’re also now shopping in a UFA bucket that’s not very large with a known large cap increase.

I suppose Bolduc is the only one that falls into that category, and I don't see how moving Schenn with no replacement really changes much for him the rest of the season. Now, it's possible that Dvorsky gets called up after the trade deadline like Bolduc was last season, but he'd probably be getting Schenn minutes with quality wingers, so as long as he's actually ready, I don't see much of an issue there either.

I love Schenn, but he doesn’t fit in our rebuilt timeframe. I’d take a 1st without hesitation.

I'd take less than a 1st, but I do think that's a reason why he won't be moved. I think Army is saying he's available in the sense that if a team pays a price that they shouldn't, we'll trade him. Same as last deadline with Buchnevich.

Completely agree, which is why "mammoth" has to be more than just one first. Neighbours did an interview with Friedman and Bukauskas around the Winter Classic that was very insightful. I recommend everyone listen to it. Goes into just how great Schenn is for our locker room.

Edit for link. Starts around the 10 minute mark.

Yeah even though performance wise Im not sure his value is super high, I believe he’s an overall positive influence off the ice. I don’t think I’d accept two half assed, late firsts for him. Especially not in a weak draft.

Anyone else getting the Gut feeling Blues are going to take a run at Marner in the off season with the cap jumping?

I bet we throw out significant offers for him and Rantanen or any other high-end player, no idea if they get close to their ask or if they are even interested. For the same reason that we'd do it, a lot of other teams will with the rising cap.

I just don’t see UFA wanting to come here during a rebuild. Hopefully things change in 2-3 years.
