My point was mostly in agreement with what you said, while putting things into perspective for others. The three guys we have are young and still growing. The three guys the Blues have are in their prime years. And that the big issue with the Wings is most everyone else on the roster. And that IF the three Wings players in question turn out to be anywhere in the realm of these St. Louis counterparts, we'll be in quite good shape considering the next couple drafts will likely net us first rounders that'll be even better than anyone we have now.

Your grand idea is to invoke Alexander Steen? Lol s*** if we have all these great building blocks already, why aren't we winning? Ya'll are beyond delusional. Larkin is ROR, Zadina is Tarasenko, lol it's laughable, it's cringe-worthy. You're the fan of sucky team, get used to it.These players suck ass. Quit lying to yourself and the fans. 100% big dog I'm with you. Ready to move to the Veleno's and Rasmussens of the world. These retards think Larkin is the next Pavel Datsyuk. Talk about low standards. It's disgusting. The purge is coming despite their moaning and whining

Not yet, nope, but Seider could be a Pietrangelo. Larkin could be an O'Reilly. Zadina could be a Tarasenko. Petruzzelli could be a Binnington. etc, etc... Keep in mind that none of the players you mentioned were any further ahead in their development at the same age as the players I mention... Point is, it would be beyond dumb to trade away any of our current core at this point, unless a team is willing to massively overpay. It's not going to happen.

This is my train of thought right now. Theres simply no way Larkin or Mantha are going to pan out the way we need them to. IF we aquire Lafreniere and that's a huge if, I think it would be in our best interest to trade these two for picks or both for one elite prospect to a win now team. This way Alexis (again IF we get him) can get a couple seasons under his belt helping his development as we are drafting back up for him and the Veleno's, Zadinas, Rasmussen's & Seiders continue their development with the big club as well. To me this makes sense as having our core shifted to the young ones, aging useful UFAs are always available. Trade to build, because right now we don't have sh*t to work with
