Looking for high end draft picks, blue chip prospects and high level talent under 27 years of age!
Not really. Stewart has shown up to camp in great shape and everyone is saying he looks much better than last year. He apparently came of age this offseason and re-dedicated himself to the game.
The Blues aren't going to give up on a 24-25 year old power forward that put up 28 goals in each of the two seasons before last year. It would take a heckuva return to get him. Everyone in St. Louis is interested to see the new and improved Stewart.
Ian Cole is certainly available for a top 4 d-man, though. Cole has a spot in St. Louis this year but the Blues need someone to pair with Pietrangelo. Cole isn't quite ready for that responsibility. He is slated to pair with Shattenkirk and that is a bit too much youth and defensive uncertainty for my liking.
Needs:
- Depth defenders (6-7, preferably with NHL experience.)
- Minor league defenders on 2 way contracts (injuries/illnesses have decimated their defense)
Edmonton picks 2nd on the waiver wire - they'll likely see what comes available as teams cut to roster size. I wouldn't be shocked to see Adam Pardy as an Oiler to start the season.
Available: Mike Rupp (NHL), Matt Gilroy (NHL), Stu Bickel (NHL), Steve Eminger (NHL), anyone in CT except JT Miller or Dylan McIlraith.
3rd round pick.
Need: bottom 6 depth guy (leftie) plus #6 RD (vet). A PP specialist as well.
I wouldn't mind Pens grabbing Ryan Wilson from you but since he's being paired with EJ and you'd most likely look to upgrade him there just isn't a way to do that.
And mtl say no way !! We need emelin this season for sure unless we have the same type of player coming back or until tinordi is ready
So you would only trade Emelin... for a player exactly like Emelin? Whats the point in including him in the "available" group then? I'd give more than that initial offer but if what youre saying is accurate theres no point in making him available.

What has changed with ROR? 3 weeks ago, Avs fans wouldn't trade him for anyone short of Crosby! Has the contract dispute really hurt his standing THAT much?
for him ?
