Wouldn't Koskinen have at least the same value as Allen?

no, @itookdonscherry because, FIRST, koskinen's career record is way better, and SECOND, allen has 2 good seasons and he all of a sudden has a lot more value?

just rechecked, allen has more wins and better career record, so i guess allen has a better value. but a 2nd and jones too, take out 2nd and make it a 3rd and it goes through.

Allen sucks per the narrative and gets paid 3 million to much no value at all right yuppy.

Now blues say no for several reasons. I will give the biggest one

1 blues need to cut salary to resign players getting kosk back at same contract worse goalie and longer term does not help.

Edm 3rd is likely property of Calgary when Lucic doesn't score 11 goals as a part of the trade conditions. A minor leaguer forward might work in place of the 2nd.

Blues are not taking back dead salary for minor league players.

Huge overpay for Allen. Blues could easily do this and then trade Koskonen in the off season. Then they get a return on their investment rather than let Allen walk for free at the end of they year. Makes more sense to me. Are you sure your a blues fan redwings?

Allen has 1 year left. Kosk8nan has no value. So you day over pay I laugh. You say that blues could easily move kosk next over the off season. I laugh at you again. Lol

Blues say no.

Yikes. This isn’t a good trade.

How does Koskanen have no value? Please explain to me how a starting goalie, or at least a 1a/ b tandem goalie, that played 55 games last year and is on pace for at least 40 games this year, with decent numbers on a bad defense team like Edmonton has no value? This I got to year.

Why isn’t it a good trade yupp? Who isn’t it a good trade for?

Not a good trade for edm, if there's anything that Allen has proved over and over, he's not the goalie to lead a team. The blues have been really good for a while, but it took a goalie change for them to come from the toilet last year. Allen's numbers always look good, but he won't steal games behind a normal defense.

Let me walk that back a little. Kosk has no value to the blues. If he has so much value then why is it on the blues to figure out how to flip him. He is an average goalie who nets 4.5mil per season for 3 more years. Allen had generally been above average with slumps here and there. He has only 1 year left after this year and is performing leaps and bounds better than kosk.

Blues will not trade away allen for Junk and a worse goalie. If they trade allen it will be to lose cap to help resign players not bring a subpar goalie on with the same contract as allen for 3 more years,

So maybe kosk has value right now but not to the blues not when they have Winnington, Allen, Husso, Hofer ect.

I agree with not wanting kosk, a more realistic trade would be Smith and a pick for Allen, it would make the blues a bit worse, so it's whether they decide a backup downgrade before playoffs is worth a2nd.

For edm they get a goalie duo, which usually Allen does well in.

I could see it if they were not a contender but they are a ligit contender for the cup so picsk do not help get the cup now.

^redwingsa most biased guy on here. Worse one ever. You really are a homer.

The fact that you think the blus would do this in any way shape or form shows your intelligence level. They are the best team in the west and arguably the best team in the league. they are Stanley cup contenders and one of the most favored to win it again. So they should make a trade that will make them worse for sheet futures and keeping kosk for 4 more years when they need to resign petro. Sounds amazing. you want to call me a homer. fine everyone on this site is, but don't sit here and act like I am wrong in my assessment. It makes you look like a child.

Actually, you look like the child trying to defend this trade and every other blues trade posted on here even when they heavily favor the blues. You put these guys on a pedestal and worship at their feet. If anyone sounds pathetic its you.

Seriously hockeyfanatic if you can't realize I am not defending but opposing this trade then you are dumber than you appear. Blues are win now. Allen is apart of that. They gave binnington 3 games off to rest and Allen won all three. He is currently performing leaps and bounds better than kosk. So the blues who are Stanley cup contenders should trade him and his 1 remaining year for kosk and his 4 at same hit for Jack sheet. Sounds amazingly stupid just like you lol.
