After losing 6 in a row, sounds like the St. Louis Blues are trying to move some assets by tomorrow... hearing Sobotka is now available. Expensive, but available.

Hoping the blues go into sell mode. Having said that, dome teams that sell end up playing a lot better after the deadline because they feel the pressure is off. St Louis had a rough patch last year around this time also before dumping Hitchcock and turning it on.

Don’t the Flyers have the Blues unprotected 1st next year? Can’t see them selling but maybe they want a shakeup. They can have Brouwer back

Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun
Despite getting Letestu today, Jackets I think would still prefer to get a forward back in a Jack Johnson trade... and Columbus also happy to keep Johnson if trade offers aren't good enough...

Also of note, the 23 man roster limit lifts at midnight tonight. So any team that wants to add and have more than 23 men on their roster can do so at that time.

Unhealthy scratch I think. But also if they want to move him they wouldn't risk aggravating whatever is wrong with him.

Maroon is missing his third straight game. Is he a healthy scratch, or is he hurt?

Hearing Flames might be interested in Maroon. This is from a buddy of mine that has connections in the Oilers org. Not sure on return or anything. FWIW

I don't get it, why would the oilers trade Maroon. He scored the first ever goal in Rogers place. Surely they have a management position for him...

I don't think he's a bad fit at all, obviously it depends on the price but I wouldn't mind him as part of our top 9.

No but the banner for that first goal is in jeopardy now if he gets traded.

I'd still keep Brouwer even if he is a toy Gulutzan shouldnt have around to play with.
