So the Canucks are planning to reach out to Pietrangelo tomorrow...
Trading for OEL will result in us taking on a 8.25mil/7 year contract.
If we take a run at Pietrangelo, he signs for around 9.5mil/7 year contract.
Not far off.
I'm just saying, we have the cap space and he is a much better defenseman than OEL. He is the type of guy you want around Hughes, Juolevi, Rafferty, etc.
I personally would be willing to take the risk. If he leaves St. Louis, they're no longer a cup contender. He's that good.
Hughes - Pietrangelo
Edler - Rafferty
Juolevi - Myers
I mean come on that's hard to turn down. Do we want Myers teaching Juolevi and Jurmo how to play in the NHL? Nothing against him but Edler is likely gone after next season and Myers is not a legit 1-2 dman. We need someone consistent.
I say go for it.
