Every year other teams are able to trade for youth. We can do that too. There are many other "Holloways out there. Kids who are being misused or not used because of a contract. That we could find.

Carolina, New Jersey and LA all have our guy.
Unless we find a top 4 RHD somewhere else, we aren't trading Faulk.

I ve heard Rossi's name in the rumor mill. If you acquire him he would likely want a long term contract which would kinda box out Dvo unless they see him as a winger. I would package Dvo and Adam Jirichek for Rossi!

Rossi didn't produce anything until age 22, by Board standards he's a bust, plus he's not top-5. Hard pass. :roll:

Rossi is 5 foot 9 inches…he was relegated to 4th line on the playoffs. Under no circumstances should the Blues trade Dvorsky or Jiricek for him let alone both…

Tucker wasn't ready until he was given the time and opportunity too.
We have way to many seasoned enough defenders in the A. All could go a route that doesn't bring them up at 24 to just get them ready for another team to use.
It can happen, but odds are if they aren't dominating in the A, they will get absolutely obliterated in the NHL.

That's not the way you progress someone. Now if an injury should happen then sure, but until then, we aren't putting a prospect in a top 4 position when we are looking to to finish 3rd or 4th in our division this year.
Binnington.

Binnington.
My very first 3 words were "It can happen" however Binny wasn't getting dominated in the minors, he had just been passed up by Ville Husso.

His last 2.5 seasons in the AHL

32 16-7-3 .911 2.71
28 17-9-0 .926 2.05
16 11-4-0 .927 2.08

then the call up and the rest is history.

In fact his lowest save pct in the minors was .907 numerous .910s and above.
