St. Louis Blues GM Doug Armstrong has his hands tied with Colton Parayko, Justin Faulk, Nick Leddy and Torey Krug...
St Louis Blues general manager Doug Armstrong wants to re-tool his roster this offseason. One of the many issues the Blues GM will have to navigate is the fact, a number of his current roster players hold trade protection. It’s going to take a lot of creativity from the veteran executive to strike a deal.. The two-way forward has one season left on his current contract at a $5.8-million cap hit, meanwhile Buchnevich owns a 12-team no-trade list and has some say in the matter.
The Blues finished this past season with a 43-33-6 record, missing the second wild-card spot by six points. Armstrong is at a crossroads as he looks to make upgrades this summer.: Well Frank, listen. There’s problems with this, because I’ll tell you why, when you look at the d-core, their four mainstays, they’ve all got term, they’ve all got money and they’ve all got no-trade clauses.
So he’s gonna have to get creative, a guy like Torey Krug, who he’s tried to trade once before and you know said no, I’m going to exercise my no-trade clause here. Last year it was reported he was going to be traded to the Flyers, maybe that wasn’t last summer, maybe it was the summer before, correctly if I’m wrong and you remember, but you know he’s got his hands tied.
