Speculation: Possible talks with Tor/Stl for Paryako

[rhef3]

Not really a fan of either team, just happen to live near st.louis so I see blues related talks

"According to Toronto radio analyst Dean Blundell the Leafs and Blues may be talking another trade.
Blundell states that some very valid sources at MLSE are talking about a trade package that will make a splash in Toronto
According to his sources Andreas Johnsson, Timothy Liljegren and the 15th overall pick from the Kapanen trade is being discussed with St Louis in a package that would send Colton Parayko to Toronto."



So I do believe that tires were kicked and names mentioned

Blundell has no sources and even less credibility.

It’s entirely made up.

 

[DopeyFish]

dean blundell isn't reliable

he's a loud mouth opinion man, not an insider

 

[Bloomberg]

Yes please. Leafs fan

Its a really bad deal for St. Louis. In the Blues current position they need to make around 7-9M cap space to resign Pietrangelo. This deal nets them a total of 2M.
My counter offer would be Sandin + #15 for Parayko. This would give them 5.5M cap to work with instead and would being them a lot closer to an extension

If I’m correct Blundell is one of the people who posts on nhltraderumors right? Eklund has more credibility than that site.

I would still do that, which says it's still probably not enough for St Louis.

That works too for the Leafs. Leafs already have Rielly and Muzzin and Demortt. Sandin should be expendable

Would be nice, but this guy has no sources.

I know these Parayko to Toronto proposals are tiring and I see them all the time on these boards from fans and for that i'm sorry, but I'm reading it from St.louis based pages as well, but yea, most all linking to this Dean Blundell guy, so if he isn't credible then chances are not happening and nothing to worry about for those that don't wanna see Colton leave.

 

[Chayos]

How is this going to help ST Louis. They trade out 5.5m and get back 4.26m if Liligren goes into Parayko's spot. Andreas Johnsson doesn't fill a need for ST louis as they already have a ton for forwards.

 

[780il]

That’s a bad deal for the Blues lol. I’ll give them AA + 14 + Jones anytime.

Well my thinking is they want that pick and to shed some salary to sign petro, Liljegren is a nice throw in as well for the younger defenseman coming up, And these are just names discussed in a package, it would most likely be more names/picks thrown into a package, because even i don't think that's enough to get Colton.

it's not the whole deal, just some names mentioned in "A package"

Funny, I never see them. The last one I even remember was last summer.

Doug Armstrong and Craig Berube said they have a 5 year window to win another one and they are in year 3. You need Alex Pietrangelo to do that.

Well maybe it was due for another ? haha

 

[Legion34]

Is the only thing that blundell called the babcock thing?


He had the number and term exactly on that. Even when insiders were saying buffalo.

I can’t remember anything else?

If they trade players to get Petro signed it won't be Parayko. They can buyout Steen, Trade Bozak with a sweetener and trade Schwartz for futures and they then can sign Petro and Dunn.

 

[Petrus]

I thought Blundell was a morning music radio host?

How come he is doing sports?

 

[MissouriMook]

If the Blues are inclined to trade Parayko (presumably because they have a deal in place to re-sign Pietrangelo) then I would expect they will only pull the trigger on a deal that they will "win" given the demand for his services around the league, at least judging by NHL fanbases. I can't see a deal between TOR and STL that includes Parayko but doesn't include one of Nylander or Marner. I would say Rielly since STL could be seeking a top LD, but I don't see that as a realistic ask from TOR given their need to bolster their defense and their glut of top forwards.

There are just too many other options out there as potential suitors for Parayko that I can't see them settling on a deal that has Johnsson as the "centerpiece" unless there is more than one premium pick coming back the other way.

[Chayos]

That’s a bad deal for the Blues lol. I’ll give them AA + 14 + Jones anytime.

I think they would want more futures and no salary coming back if they are moving Parayko.

Probably something like Broberg and 14

I agree that they need Petro to do that but the Toronto deal doesn't solve anythign other than getting ride of their number 2 defenceman

 

[mriswith]

If I'm St. Louis I pay a 1st to dump Faulk before I make that trade
