We got a ton of garbage that's what we got more old ass geezers on the team that can't score over the age of 30
Awesome you get a prospect that struggling to the max and can't skate ( hopefully he can become the prospect that he was predicted to be but the speed of the NHL is going to change that)

The only thing good out of this deal is the first pick in the second

We got rid of a big contract that had another five years. RoR is a good player for now, but he's slow and has a bad back, and is an obvious problem with teammates. Getting rid of his contract now before his productions worsens is a positive.

He is 6’5, 1st round pick 2 years ago with Nylander. Is he ready?? Please stop!

He needs to hit the weight room get stronger for the wing he has to somewhat improve his skating and he probably has to be in the AHL this year

all the Blues fan said it was a mistake for him to be in the lineup last year he needs more time

Blues 1st in 2019 is top 10 protected. Wish they would have left that off, haha. But OK.

You really can't see the forest for the trees, can you? Why do you deal in such absolutes?

They may not be done. Say that very sloooowwwwllllyyy! It's (frank)ING JULY 1ST!!!!! Jesus.

I’m so F’ing pumped. Tage Thompson was a 1st rounder and as a UConn boy like myself, I am so happy we got him. He’s more than a bottom 6. Go cry in your wheaties if you don’t like this trade. A 1st, 2nd, Tage and 2 other ok players to cleanse the locker room. This is a steal.

I can’t be more happy! Go Tage!!!!

We get two 30 year olds who are 30 point players at best IE should be 3rd liners on most teams...

Not great cap hits especially for Berglund... 4 more years at 3.85....

Thompson.. I'll admit I don't know a lot about. But from what I've read big guy who CAN'T skate. Couldn't make it with the NHL last year but was a goal scorer in college. Likely projects out to be a 3rd line RW.... So no speed, no cap relief, no immediate goal scoring, no top six replacement. How did we win this trade...?

Now you're trolling. Right? Do you really think the Blues are finishing that badly?
