Thread: Next year if Chytil is done
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GM69</b></div><div>He's a good player, I just think the wear and tear on his body is starting to show and would rather trade him now than extend him to a Girardi type contract (which it would be 2-3 years down the line). My thought is he may ask for more than Andersson makes (my guess is $5m) and he just won't be worth that in 2-3 years if he keeps taking the beating he has. They get a solid replacement in Andersson and also could potentially get a mid round pick with the overall packages being swapped. Kakko and Turcotte have both underperformed and I could argue Kakko does have more value, but getting rid of him was more since we have Perreault and Othmann ready to make the jump and Cuylle playing well.</div></div>

Lindy's only 26. Yes he's a Girardi type but I think he still has some gas left in him.

Thread: Buch
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>First of all, let's remember the Blues do not want to trade Buch. So he would need to be pried away.

More than anything they'll want a legit top 4 young or young enough Dman/D prospect, and the sooner to contributing the better. For the Rangers - who happen to have a few of those on board - this is even more important, as they seem intent on not trading their 24 1st and will definitely require retention.</div></div>

The rumor about Dolan not wanting the Rangers to trade their 24 1st has been debunked for a while now. It's definitely on the table.

As for the dman, they do have Miller who fits the mold of what you want, but a big change to their D-core right before the playoffs isn't a good idea in my opinion. If I were Drury I'd be open to moving Miller in the right trade but not right before the playoffs. Beyond Miller, there's Schneider who can probably fit the mold of what the Blues want, as he has a lot of promise and will be top 4 caliber soon, would you be open to a 1st + Schneider for Buch with retention?
