Thursday could be wild!

Post by jaro »

It will be an exciting day for hockey fans Thursday. Whether it is a great excited (your team trades for stud giving up little) or a horrible excited (your team trades stud and gets little).

Could get butchered here but I would really hate see us give up prime young talent from our NHL roster for an expensive stud like Speeza at this point in the Blues quest for the Cup. Even with a Speeza like stud, we are not ready to make a serious Cup run. We have a couple of more pieces to get into place IMO and a 7 million $ guy would greatly influence what we will be able to do with the young RFA's we have to sign in the coming 2 years. I wish we had that type money to spend but currently we don't.

Okay men. READY...AIM...FIRE AWAY.

You're pretty geeked up about this aren't you? It seems I've seen a similar thread but I'm probably just having deja vu.

I honestly don't really don't care how many threads you start, I'm just a big jerk. Reel would attest to that.

I'm thinking it's going to be more of a Philippe Bozon type of signing if one at all. I've giving up on getting my hopes up...it's the Blues after all.

To disagree, one doesn't have to be disagreeable.

McKenzie saying there's a rumor of Brewer for Souray and I guess LA and Blues in contention for Kovy.

Yep, here's the exact Tweet from McKenzie:
Bob McKenzie TSNBobMcKenzie

Interesting rumour, and I stress rumour at this point: EDM possibly moving Souray to STL with Brewer coming back the other way.
TSNBobMcKenzie

Souray is a $5.4M cap hit who will make $4.5M in each of next two seasons. Brewer is $4.25M cap hit with salary of $4.5M for coming season.
TSNBobMcKenzie

EDM obviously must move Souray - he can't play there now - but will have to take some money back. Could Souray-Brewer be the answer??

This needs to happen!!!!! I don't like taking on the added year @ $4.5mil. Especially when we're apparently going to make a move for Kovy. Not to mention the Oshie/Berglund contracts expiring after this season. Cap could get messy next year.

But at this point anything to get Brewer off the roster is acceptable to me!

I feel the exact same way. I'm not a big fan of Souray, aside from his booming shot from the point, does he add much? Regardless, if it got Brewer out of town, I'm a-okay with it. I'm not a complete Brewer hater, but for this team to take the next step, we need a different captain, and Brewer needs to be off this roster.

What would be wild is if Kovy doesn't sign with ANYONE. He waits until the deadline for signing players before the playoffs, and joins a cup contender for bare minimum to win teh :cup:

From what I can tell, Souray has basically demanded a trade. Not sure the events that caused that, will look up to see if I can find anything, but he wants out.
