Oilers trade you Klefbom for a first rounder
Is Klefbom no longer likely career ended due to injury?
I didn't get that memo....
Doubt the Rangers will move him anytime soon, also doubt he will develop into a top pair player, but Zac Jones looks to be a quality LHD that can play 2nd pair minutes right now and grow further. Probably will top out as a high end 2nd pair guy though. Numbers game pushes him down.
Jones is now clearly Fox lite
We believe he will proove to look more and more like Fox over the next year +.
He is available but the cost is signif
Time to grab was past off season
Price still high but reachable
Had eye opening good pre season
Jones plays a Krug like style though.
I can see the Blues having interest in Robertson/Miller/Lindgren
They’d be more the type
Lindgren despite being the smallest, is the most physical.
Miller had solid Rookie campaign and Robertson still needs a year year n half in hartford
Agree w/all of this, except that while Robertson could use the year, I think he could cut it w/right partner if he had to.
You are already paying top line money to Krug, so unless you are moving him, you aren't getting any other #1 LD, unless STL has a different cap than everyone else. No team is paying 6.5 for a "2nd pair defender" as is being suggested he is, which I don't fully agree with.
Blues gotta live w/Krug, or pay broker's fee to move him and repurpose cap.
===========================
Lindgren is very reasonable, 3 yrs.
Need a reason to go there.
