Fair and to be honest I think you guys are on the right track. I think both Coronato and Pelletier could be top 6 players. Piece of advise? Johnny G might not be worth the coin he’ll get from somewhere. UFAS rarely work during all the years they have signed for. We’re stuck with Lee, Pageau, Palmieri and Bailey so I should know.
I think Beauvillier would flourish in Edmonton, he's just too good to be play this bad. I think there's a deal to be made with the Oilers.
I was surprised not seeing TO on the OP’s list as Mayfield is the perfect fit, but I forgot about the hatred.
Does Beauvillier play RW? I don't see where we will play on the Oilers with Kane, Hyman and Foegele playing on the LW.
I didn't get my true point across. I was trying to say Dobson is the better defenseman already and he is right handed and plays an offensive role (which is what Barrie brings to a team RH offensive D). From a point total perspective, yes Barrie is still better than Dobson.
Blues would definitely say no.
Fair but your window is not going to last long enough to see Bolduc pay dividends unless you think he’s ready next year. Saw every minute of the game last night. Offense can be lethal at any moment they decide to turn it on but defense is way to weak to compete with Colorado unless it was an off night which it definitely could have been. Dont know...
Just because our current window won't be open when Bolduc or the 1st is ready doesn't mean we should spend those assets for a unneeded non-upgrade in Beauvillier and a lower needed upgrade in Mayfield. If the Blues are spending those assets for an upgrade then it should fill the gaping hole that's open, not the minor crack. Mayfield coming in won't put us over the top when he's going to be below Parayko and Faulk in the depth charts.
I think you’re underestimating Mayfield but you know your team more than I. May I ask who you think is better than Mayfield and is probably available at the deadline. Or do yo think you don’t need defense cause you gave up 5 goals to a Ranger team that scored 2 goals three nights prior to Vancouver.
Did you ignore what I said? Parayko and Faulk are our top two RHD. Blues need a top 4 mobile defensive LEFT HANDED Left Side defensemen, which Mayfield is not. It's been rumored that Lindholm could be available would be the best player available for the Blues needs. If you want to cut Beauvillier out of the deal and we talk a trade about Mayfield we could possibly work something out. But he would not be the top of the Blues priority list.
Chill, I didn’t come her with the motive of raising blood pressure. I just don’t like Colorado and would like someone to knock them off and though you guys have a shot albeit a small one. Thought I was offering a package that would give you a chance. And for the record Lindholm will be caught it a bidding war and will command a king’s ransom. Why would the Ducks trade him when they are still in the playoff hunt. Rather have Giordano than Mayfield (and I’m not saying that you do but I know many are) that’s fine but I’m declaring most people haven’t witnessed the positive progression of Mayfield this year. Personally I think he’s playing better than Pulock. The Islanders should probably extend him this off season.
I'd rather pay a kings ransom on an absolute glaring need than pay asking price on an unwanted asset and an upgrade that is the lowest need of the team. Lindholm and Giordano (or any top 4 minute munching Left Handed Defender) would be the highest priority of the Blues.
Fine I’ll edit the original post and take the Blues out. Good luck with the season…
The jets are essentially out of the playoffs so y are we paying for a rental
Did you look at standing before making this post? Closer to a rebuild situation than anything.
