Watched the Embedded from the Draft...

A day after trading him, Kevyn Adams gets a call from Sam Reinhart and said "I feel bad because I really believe in you and Donny to get this right, and he appreciated that he (Adams) did the best to put him in the best spot for a clean slate"

That sounds like a stand up guy to me

I'm sure eichel will make the same phone call..

8-12, Better sure, not nearly even close to competing for a playoff spot.

IMO all star games and drafts should be rotated evenly amongst all nhl teams

Jeremy Rutherford reports the contract standoff continues between the Blues and restricted free agent Robert Thomas. The 22-year-old forward is coming off his entry-level deal with little leverage except if he signs an offer sheet with a rival club.

The Blues have almost no cap space left for the coming season. If a team signed Thomas for between $2.055 million and $4.11 million and the Blues declined to match, they’d receive a second-round pick as compensation.

Could go a long way towards redemption for the ror trade

Would be a nice Addition, and we just happen to have a extra 2nd next year, so losing our 2nd wouldn't hurt as much.
Edit: whoops that extra 2nd is in 23

Say the Sabres did that with Thomas and St. Louis declined. Does that change the climate for a Eichel trade on what Adams would be willing to take back.

CapFriendly has St. Louis with $781K in cap space and a full roster while Evolving Hockey has Thomas contract predicted at $2.1M for 2 years.

St. Louis could demote one of their D men and that would free up another $750K.

If they waive a forward, they can fit Thomas, unless he's looking for some kind of big pay day.

From his perspective, he's worth more than Mitts [email protected] deal. KA didn't do him any favors there.

Evolving Hockey has both Thomas and Mittelstadt getting almost identical deals at either $2.1M per for 2 years or $2.5M per for 3 years.

He's no Robert Thomas

Interesting, Thomas has about 50% more NHL points than Mitts. I wouldn't put equal projections on them.

Like Thomas, think he needs a change of scenery. Plus he can play C and RW.

As you know, EH uses a robust formula, but a key aspect for Thomas that plays a part is he did not have a good season last year, and he was out of the lineup for almost 2 months.

maybe they should go full caniac: 1yr/$6m

edit: cancel that...not for a first and a third...$4.110732m is the highest for a second rounder

he only took 22 shots for some reason...had a 13.6% shooting percentage

Not calling it crazy or anything. Thomas has performed worthy of that deal, where as Mitts is more on draft position and potential.

That's really strange.

He either broke his thumb or wrist last year. Missed like 6 weeks

shouldn't
- Michael Pachla

I would agree with that.
