Value of: Pavel Buchnevich

[JetsFan815]

Would St Louis consider dealing him if they look to be out of it by the deadline? If so what would the ask be? Is a 1st and Chaz Lucius in the ballpark?

1st and a top defensive prospect would be what I'd look for.

I'm really not sure what our plans are on him though. Could easily see us extend him, could also see us holding onto him until next trade deadline.

 

[BleedBlue14]

Blues prospect pool is so heavily weighted towards forwards I can’t imagine them being too interested in Lucius

 

[Majorityof1]

As others have said, its a 1st and a good defensive prospect. Someone with top pair potential.

That is if we don't want to re-sign him. He might be a veteran we want to keep around to show our prospects the right way to play. It all depends on what he wants and if he wants to stay in St. Louis. If he doesn't want to re-sign, we'll take best offer, so 1st + Lucius isn't out of the realm of possibility. I definitely think we'd shop him a bit more before settling on that though.

Buchnevich has a no trade. Slim chance he will waive for Winnipeg

Sammy Blais & a 2nd

it's a partial ntc with 12 team list, but Winnipeg tends to be on lots of those. now they are really good team- and blues aren't- so that could change calculus perhaps.

Oilers 1st, Broberg, Holloway, Campbell for Buchnevich

 

[Linkens Mastery]

1st + solid defense first defensive prospect is the ask. Preferred LHS. If we retain the price goes up a bit

Thats pretty close to what the Oilers would be paying just to unload Campbells contract. What are they offering for Buchnevich?

 

[jjniner]

Oilers first and 2nd in 24, 1 and 2 in 25, Broberg, Holloway and Campbell

for Buch and Binnington

NO. I don't want Campbell in any way shape or form. Holloway is a 22 year old who can't stick in the NHL as a forward - headed towards bust territory. Edmonton fans have soured on Broberg and his development seems to have stalled this year. I am not sure he offers the Blues anything more then a bottom pairing guy (and we have plenty of those).

And I don't think you will find any fan from Edmonton who doesn't think this is an overpay or will not be willing to give up 2 1st rounds.

 

[BlueSeal]

With the amount of goalies in our pipeline I’d consider packaging Buch and Binny but we need quality blue liners out of that deal or forget it.

 

[HuGort]

Habs might be interested in him in summer. Could offer young defense man plus either prospects or picks.

 

[LeafChief]

He's a tad arrogant and makes this place unbearable at times.


Oh you meant the NHL player. My bad.

 

[Cotton Eye Joe]

Heinola and Jets 1st rounder.

 

[SRHRangers]

Just bring Buch home to Broadway....

Never should've dealt him....rectify it now.... With 50% retention

At best, this is "take Campbell, we'll give you a 1st for that - and then we'll give you Broberg and Holloway for Buchnevich." Which ... no. I wouldn't take a 1st to take Campbell. I like Holloway, think he needs a confidence boost or time in the AHL to get seriously coached, but Broberg is a throw-in IMO.

You don't have a 2nd in '25 - that got sent to Arizona.

Ignoring that: you have to get both Buchnevich and Binnington to waive NTCs for Edmonton. One might be doable; two may be asking a lot.

NTCs don't exist here in GM fantasy land. All these proposals should be made ASAP. /s

That’s probably an unrealistic ask. These guys with real top pair potential are usually the D drafted in the top 10 that are trending in the right direction.

I could see a first and a great D prospect that is trending well and is going to be a good top 4.

It will be tough to afford his next contract now. So with the assets we give up, and then having to pay him, it seems highly unlikely, unless this was deadline next year and it was a playoff run move with limited intentions on going into 2025-2026 with him. The move was made. It's over. We can cry in the corner together if you like.

It doesn't have to be a guy that projects as a top pair, just someone who could hit it if everything breaks right. I'm not expecting Nemec. What you describe, a guy that is going to be a top 4 probably has an outside chance to be a low end top 2. That's all I'm asking.

Plus we don't have to trade him yet. Next TDL with retention, we could get close to 1st plus prospect. So I'm willing to hold out for a prospect I like for now rather than settling.

I noticed in fantasy he has center eligibility but does he ever actually play center?
