Blues have lost Jaden Schwartz for a minimum of 6 weeks with an ankle injury. With Fabbri out all year they become a team that could look to add scoring depth.
Pacioretty to Blues for Tage Thompson (C), Jake Wallman (D), Tanner Kaspick (C), 2018 3rd round pick & 2019 1st round pick.
Philly has Blues 2018 1st round pick from the Schenn trade.
It's a lot, but do able from the Blues perspective. All 3 are good prospects but the trade doesn't touch Blues big prospects like Kyrou, Dunn & Kostin.
It also doesn't take from their current roster. Mainly futures. I believe Stastny & Pacioretty have played together on Team U.S.A & have good chemistry.
Just musing. I think Blues - Habs make good trade partners. They have a ton of prospects and are losing a lot of scorers to injury. Pacioretty would be a good pick-up for them. I can see him fitting into their system.
