There is a reason he is being shopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I’d love Andrei Vasilevsky, I don’t think that happening lol I mean I suppose you could trade Dawson Mercer and some other stuff in some blockbuster trade, and then have a great goalie and your second line is Zacha, Geertsen, and Foote. Obviously I'm joking, because anyone trading us an elite goalie wouldn't leave us with Mason Geertsen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but I don't think the answer is to give up assets to obtain 28 year old who has been declining season on season and is signed through to 2027 at $6 million a year.

Well yes, maybe not THAT guy. But it'll have to be someone whose team has a reason they are letting him go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Just because Binnington is who St Louis WANTS to trade doesn’t mean that’s who they end up trading. If they get no buyers they have no choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Binnington's been just meh enough that if Fitz was interested in trading for him, he should tell the Blues that they're taking Tatar off his hands (Devils are taking several years back). Devils could give them Blackwood as well as an expendable or two (basically guys who have no chance to be a part of the future here...say, Johnsson). The Blues could wave bye-bye to both Tatar and Johnsson after next season (unless they're able to move them first). Not saying that I would make this trade (that is a scary contract from a pure length standpoint), but Binnington has a .909 save% since the start of 2019...it's more of a salary dump for the Blues, than anything else. If they want to deal off a question mark, fine, but then you're getting a question mark in net back, and given the length of his contract, nothing else that's desirable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I’d much rather bank on Blackwoods development than a Binnington return-to-form. If Binnington stays as a .909 and Blackwood gets back to what he was doing pre covid and injuries it would end up being a pretty lopsided trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Binnington stays as a .909 and Blackwood gets back to what he was doing pre covid and injuries it would end up being a pretty lopsided trade Yeah I'm with ya...like I said, I wouldn't do it myself. In Blackwood's case, the Devils aren't tied to Blackwood for five more years at not-cheap dollars. If anything you could probably take Blackwood out of the mix, and give them Bernier and a draft pick (along with Tatar and Johnsson...probably one or the other). It's a salary dump for a guy who's play has been largely ordinary since winning the Cup...the cap relief (Tatar, Johnsson and Bernier are all only signed through next season) and not having to pay Binnington is the real win for the Blues. They probably shouldn't expect to get very much back. Edited March 18, 2022 by Colorado Rockies 1976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
