And for STL to be willing to trade Binnington for Campbell, with similar cap hits and term, would take a LOT of convincing, I would think.

Would have to be a three team deal too for cap reasons because the Blues have no cap space to absorb another contract from the Oilers and Binnington would put the Oilers over the cap.
If I was the Blues and I was actually committed to a full on rebuild, I would be willing to entertain it if I was extracting an incredible return. Campbell plus 3 first rounders would definitely do it for me. Some other team gets a 2nd for taking 1.4 million of Billington’s contract and the trade could happen.
It would be incredible if the Oilers traded their 1st round picks from 2022-2026 (5 firsts), a second, Tyson Barrie and a 4th and all they got back was a broken down Ekholm and Binnington.
