I have a feeling it would take more to get McKee, but whatever, I'll adjust the proposal later if I feel it's necessary. Philadelphia needs a #3 defenseman and McKee can fill that role well, and behind Eller the Blues don't have much in the lines of LW depth, and Upshall would be a good 2nd line option with them. When given a good center, he could be a 20-20 guy. He's an absolute sparkplug and hits whatever moves. Jones is a good future 2nd-pairing guy who can play behind Johnson & Pietrangelo for years to come. Philadelphia takes on McKee's 4M salary and they only take on an extra 25K, which is insignificant. Thoughts?
As a Blues fan, well... I think the Flyers are giving up a little too much in this trade. But....
