to blues Mats Zuccarello Adam Tambellini
To NYR Kevin Shattenkirk (agreed sign and trade 6 years 6 million) Dimiti Jaskin (sp)
Gives STL a dynamic player who can play both wings very well. Another threat to go along with Tarashenko schawartz and company. Makes STL PP top 5 in the league and is signed to one on the best deals in the NHL. By trading ****-head to NYR is lets the blues get more value from trading him because of the agreed upon sign and trade.
For NYR it gives them a proven puck mover that can replace some of what yandle brought to the NYR offense,PP,and transition game. I fully expect staal to have a bounce back year. He had surgery last june that many forget about, logged a ton of minutes because over the last 4 years the rangers have played more playoff games then any other team in the league. Staal is not overly physical so he will age well, he is very good positionaly, and has one of the most active sticks for a D-man in the NHL. towards the end of the year when McD was out he was excellent. yes, his contract is long and about a million too high but he really gets a bum rap on these boards. If paired with a puck mover he will do great. hence the stralman-staal pairing. This trade allows NYR to run a top four of McD -Skjei
