It's not that we think he's untouchable, it's simply that we don't have much in the way of centermen. He's a 6'4" center with good defensive capabilities, so that's why we like him in St. Louis. But if you look at our team, we have 2 or 3 true NHL centermen with very little in the way of prospects to replace any of them. That's why Blues fans want him, not because he's some stud that comes once in a lifetime, but because we don't have anything better. We're not saying no to the trade because we feel Berglunds vastly superior, we just don't have any replacement if we get rid of him
