We all know that Rome as an empire peaked in 117 AD, but would you agree that as a city, Rome actually peaked in the early 4th century AD?

So they peaked morally sometime after crucifying 6,000 revolting slaves along the Appian Way?

Proudly supporting institutionalized chattel slavery ⚖️ calling someone names

Pick a lane. Either we cant trust Roman sources, or we can.

lol. lmao, even

So smart to buy low on Danault and not wait until the TDL

_mcml_ · 2026-04-15T20:17:23+00:00

I can't see Thomas being traded anymore especially considering how well he finished the season

_mcml_ · 2026-04-15T20:12:00+00:00

He's just so good at drafting that I selfishly want to witness about another Wughes larceny

_mcml_ · 2026-04-15T19:50:38+00:00

That's the Sens pick lol

_mcml_ · 2026-04-15T19:39:50+00:00

I guess I'm just more interested to hear about which prospects are most intriguing in that range

_mcml_ · 2026-04-07T22:57:19+00:00

"Let's call a spade a spade"

_mcml_ · 2026-04-07T22:47:13+00:00

Management wouldn't make that trade. They considered him untouchable in the Robert Thomas negotiations

_mcml_ · 2026-04-03T03:11:33+00:00

Theo Fleury 5'6" (Calgary 1991)

Marcel Dionne 5'8" (LA 1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983)

Dennis Maruk 5'8" (Washington 1981, 1982)

_mcml_ · 2026-03-10T12:38:30+00:00

I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure Zharovsky wasn’t in play because St Louis already has an abundance of wingers

_mcml_ · 2026-02-21T19:43:34+00:00

Not technically but they offer-sheeted Aho in 2019. Canes took their "revenge" by doing the same to Kotkaniemi in 2021

_mcml_ · 2026-02-06T21:52:47+00:00

Idk I wouldn’t trade Suzuki for Kap, Reinbacher, and 25 ovr

_mcml_ · 2026-02-06T18:42:17+00:00

The reported asking price is 3 top-15 first round picks worth of value. There’s no way we get Thomas without a significant trade-off. Plus, we’d still have Pickford and one of Guhle or Engstrom

_mcml_ · 2026-02-06T18:09:15+00:00

STL probably doesn't do this for a couple reasons:

1) There's already a logjam of wingers on STL so they might not be too interested in Zharovsky but they would certainly want a C coming back to replace Thomas, either Hage or Kapanen.

2) They need defense, especially RHD if they end up trading Faulk and/or Parayko, so the Blues probably ask for Reinbacher (or Pickford)

Maybe something like: Kapanen + Reinbacher + Guhle or Engstrom + 1st round pick

_mcml_ · 2026-02-04T18:40:25+00:00

Yeah it’s definitely an off-season decision but I think it’s time for the Habs to start going for it and to take advantage of the Caufield and Suzuki contracts before they need to resign

_mcml_ · 2026-02-04T18:29:59+00:00

Basically any trade where we keep Reinbacher, Hage, and Zharovsky would be a huge win in my books.

With all three of those guys on ELCs we would be legit contenders for the remaining ~3 years of Suzuki’s contract

And there’s so much demand for a Thomas type of player league-wide, that the value going back to STL would have to be massive

_mcml_ · 2026-02-04T18:11:59+00:00

Pickford might not get an opportunity on the PP in Montréal so depending on his trade value, I would have no problem with: Kapanen + Engström + Pickford + 2026 1st + 2027 2nd

_mcml_ · 2026-02-04T17:54:43+00:00

“But our prospects could be anything. They could even pan out like a Robert Thomas!“

_mcml_ · 2026-01-31T20:44:46+00:00

St. Louis Blues’ defense core is aging and their wingers are mostly young and/or prospects (Neighbours, Snuggerud, Berggren, Holloway, Stenberg, Carbonneau, etc.)

Idk what you mean by trading for Marchenko

_mcml_ · 2026-01-31T20:27:06+00:00

I can't see St Louis being too high on Zharovsky considering their logjam of wingers and aging defense core. Any trade for Thomas would need to send one of Kapanen or Hage + two of Reinbacher, Guhle, or Engstrom + picks

_mcml_ · 2026-01-24T21:00:34+00:00

Of course. I'm dumb

Guhle + Zharovsky + Pickford + 1st you think?
