Not getting OEL for that lmao, try again. Maybe start with Tarasenko

Tarasenko for OEL is a joke. That's the same as Nylander for him. No chance. Think about what you're saying and realize how dumb it is.

While I agree Schenn for OEL is a joke, saying Tarasenko for OEL is only a start is an even bigger joke lmao. I like OEL, but he’s not THAT good.

OEL is a #1 defensemen on any team. It would take an elite player like Tarasenko. And I didn’t meant “ to start “. It would obviously be a 1for1 swap

OEL is not elite. And at eight million is overpaid. Nobody is giving up a top line forward 30g/ 70pt player for him. Ever.

Why do you think Arizona wants to trade him so bad then?

If gjys lije skeji and Trouba don't get more than a first + theb what makes you think OEL brings in anything close to Tarasenko. Even Schenn is overpay.

The Yotes do not want to trade OEL at the 2016 draft their GM said they wouldn’t move OEL for the 1st overall pick ( Austin Mathews) obviously the past 2 seasons have been very underwhelming to his standards he is still a number 1 dman is I were the leafs and I was given an offer of Nylander for OEL that’s something I’d have to atleast entertain if he were an right shot I’d pull the trigger immediately. But leafs have one of the deepest left sides in hockey. Rielly, Sandin ( who will be better then Rielly imo ), Muzzin and Dermott. As per the trade offer I say Arizona declines as OEL is their franchise player. If I were Arizona I wouldn’t move OEL for Taresanko either. Although I think that is a fair swap. Let’s not forget Taresanko broke 70 points like twice in his career.

"Wahhh nobody likes my trade proposal, something must be wrong with them! "

Instead of standing on the Blues side of this trade, why don't you hop over to the Coyotes side and explain with reason and facts why the Coyotes would be trading their franchise defenseman, their captain, for a center?

Its easy to say he's overpaid when you think your team is doing them a favor in picking him up, but that contract is going to look a lot better in 2-3 years when you've got players worse than him making $9+

Find a need for both teams and come back with something logical.

Arizona has Dvorak, Hayton, and Stepan all signed until at least next year. If they're looking to upgrade down the middle they'd probably start by shopping their picks or prospects not their franchise player.

Why wouldn't they just extend Stepan for a little more than Schenn is making? he's got locker room chemistry with the team already and i'm sure he'd be willing to extend and finish his career there if the team continues to move in the right direction.

I think this trade is short sighted and shows a lack of perspective of what the other team would gain from this.

"oh look at me, I think I'm funny, but I axtually don't know what I'm talking about"

Coming from someone who thinks the Leafs should use their twenty million in cap space next year to sign Petrol it obvious your criticism don't mean much little troll boy

Dvorak - a third line center at best
Stepan - garbage
Hayton has 20 nhl games
Schmaltz is their best centre and he only had 45 points

Schenn would easily be their best player, other than Hall if they sign him. Schenn woukd easily be there number one center.

OEL has a career xgf-xga of -38.3. That is not just a bad number. It is eye popping bad for a so called franchise defenseman. He is not a franchise defenseman. Calling him a franchise defenseman makes you sound like you just read an article in an Arizona fan mag and you thought it sound cool so you would use it. He might be Arizona's franchise defenseman but that isn't impressive in any way. He's the best of the worst. Good for him. His points total is no higher than Skjei who only went for a 1st. Except OEL gets paid much more. Trouba is a better player on identical contract and he went for a 1st+pionk. Arizona wants to keep Hall and having a number one centre that is his age and talent level for him to play with would be a good start.

Maybe think before you type. Learn something about hockey. Your a good keyboard warrior but way overdramatic with a large dose of "know-it-all"ism. You want to sound cool for your friends on the site but uniformed isn't cool. Learn something first and you might impress people more.

You couldn’t be more arrogant. Take a breath and look around. OEL is a stud and your way undervaluing him. He played in the Olympics for the most stacked D in the tournament. His value IMO is probably close to Tarasenko’s.

LOL I asked for you to come back with some reason and facts and this is what you come up with? I don't think I even need to address your reply much more it pretty much sums up how useless your contributions on this site are.

You think your hockey knowledge is showing in these replies? How about your own posts? March 8 you said Pietrangelo was untouchable and then 3 days later you packaged him with Thomas in a trade proposal for Vrana and GUDAS!

Whats next? Schenn for Cale Makar? Find another sport to pretend to follow because hockey isn't your strong point.

Then prove it. Put up some stats and a few recent trades that prove it. You and your cool internet friends rely on nothing but ganging up and agreeing on it. It's a big circle jerk each one of you saying the same thing. OEL is a stud franchise defenseman. A stud franchise defenseman to me means someone that is going to be in the hall of fame. A Norris winner. A cup winner
A winner of something. Anything. OEL has won nothing and has never even been a contender for anything. So so me a reason why OEL brings more than Schenn, when even Schenn is a way overpay. Just repeating "he does" without proof is like your parents keep repeating "because I said so". And like your parents, I know that until you grow up and learn enough that I know you know what you are talking about, I have no reason to believe you either.

LOL I ask for proof and this is what you give me, more of the same "I'm right because I said so". You probably still think Leafs should sign Petrol with their twenty million in cap space. LOL.

"So so me a reason why OEL brings more than Schenn, when even Schenn is a way overpay. Just repeating "he does" without proof is like your parents keep repeating "because I said so". "

Whats interesting is that you're creating a fictitious argument in your child sized brain that I've said somewhere OEL brings more than Schenn. From the very beginning I've been saying this trade makes no freaking sense because Arizona doesn't need Schenn. I asked you to give me facts about why they do and your only leg to stand on is that he's statistically better than what they already have. BFD. They like what they have in their team already and if OEL was being shopped it would be for a team need, not just what you think he's worth if St. louis calls.

"OEL has won nothing and has never even been a contender for anything. " = Silver medalist in Sochi 2014, gold medalist in world championships in 2018. You're probably going to tell me those mean nothing because he played on stacked teams or some other BS to downplay the fact you don't think before you type when you're getting pissy with people.

STFU and go back to bed.

Everybody disagrees with st. louisfan but somehow he thinks he's the only person that is right. bring up stats from being on a terrible team his whole career? Oel would fetch a lot more than a 50 some point a year guy. i'd expect a "1st line center" to get more points . Broke 60 points once in his career.

In his defence I don’t think OEL is a franchise Dman. He will never be a hall of famer nor will Schenn. I can’t imagine him being the go to guy on any team that’s competitive. Robert Bortuzzo won a Stanley cup. Does that make him good? Those aren’t impressive individual features its a team sport and his team won them. The reality is Tho this make Arizona a worse team and Saint Louis a better team.

I have you four good reasons why they need Schenn - Stepan, Dvorak, Hayton. Then I added Schmaltz too (who you forgot) . Arizona doesn't have very good centres and Schenn would easily be their number one centre.

Then I said that they need to re-sign Hall, and having a centre his age and who is a much better center than anyone they have is another reason.

I also mentioned OEL is overpaid. So that is another reason.

So I gave you all kinds of reasons actually.

I asked for proof by way of stats or some sort of recent trade activity that would show me that OEL is a stud franchise defenseman, and I got more of the same out of you and your internet friends. "We all say so, so it must be true". "I agree that you agree". "I agree with him for agreeing with you". Lame. You guys are all sheep.

@Shootsmcgee

I didn't call Schenn a number one centre. I said he would be Arizona's number one centre. Kinda like how OEL is their stud franchise defenseman. But thanks for coming out to protect your buddy who doesn't have a clue what he is talking about.
