Dreger: Buchnevich is likely to be traded

[WingsToPick4th]

Some of our posters like Wallinder and Gibson, so one of them would likely get a deal done in our view.

they're both really solid, would not be fun to lose either one but you gotta give value to get value.

You guys also have the benefit of a crazy deep prospect pool.

Wallinder, Gibson and a 1st

Game winner tonight!

Shootout winner, followed by the worst celly. Hurts his value, hate to see it.

Kuznetsov-like celly….that can’t be good.

Nah he has the best cellys. Because he changes it up, he doesn’t do the same thing every time.

Profoundly weak analysis: Buchnevich is marginal on the Blues so they'll trade him for whatever.

Not at all saying that he is to be traded for whatever, but a fair price.

And the assessment is that he is marginal in value to the Blues' future when they are ready to compete.

 

[TK 421]

So which team ends up with Buchnevich if he's traded? Does this deal get held up until Guentzel gets moved?

 

[oilers4life5]

I would way rather trade for him than Guentzel. At least we get another year. Guentzel will walk.

Seravalli reported Army's ask is in line with what many of us have been speculating.

"Doug Armstrong has set a high bar, a framework that reportedly includes two first-round picks, or one first-round pick plus a first-round equivalent, and an additional prospect. That’s because the Blues are in a no-lose position. Armstrong either gets a hefty price for one of the best players available at this deadline, or he puts him up for auction again this summer with more teams in the mix."

From the Blues Forums per Seravalli

I am feeling more and more like a Buch deal is going to go down at the draft unless a team gets desperate and meets price at last minute.

 

[PocketNines]

I'll be content if he stays a Blue. But I'm very happy to see Edmonton spent their 1st on Henrique and that should end any discussion with them

Can we swap Lekkerimaki for Willander and we retain 50% on Buch?
