Teams are only allowed to retain on 3 contracts at a time, yeah? Does St. Louis have any currently?

Say they retain slightly on Parayko. Brodie goes there as part of the deal for CAP reasons. St. Louis can even turn around, retain half of his deal, and trade him elsewhere. Since this is the last season of Brodie's contract. That way they could even get something for him.

That would have them at Brodie for the rest of this season, Buchnevich for this and next (if/when they trade him), and Parayko for 6. It could technically work, if they don't have any retentions right now.

STL is currently using 0 of their 3 retention slots.

Did you guess that or saw it? Because it's right.

id rather have given the 2024 1st for tanev than the 2 picks for edmunson.
- senstroll

Gross.
No way.
Sign tanev in off the season.

Eddie Munster is gonna cross-check his way to a Conn Smythe. Book it.

I’ve seen a few people say they don’t want to retain $ on this deal

It doesn't per say - but if they could do $1m, they could probably find a way to make it work, assuming they would (and could - 10 team NTC) trade Brodie. $1m with a rising cap and a rebuilding team? You probably don't notice that missing $1m until like the 6th year . . .I'm not even sure which of their young prospects really would project to be stars - I like Snuggerud and Dvorsky - but I think Logan Cooley was the stick that stirred the drink in Minnesota that gave Snuggerud more success. I think Dvorsky has a better chance - but my point really is that those guys are 4 years away - at least - from their first RFA years. That $1m may not be a big a deal.
- Monkeypunk

Ya that’s what I’m thinking. Then try and get a 3rd team to retain. Say stl retains 1m then he’s down to 5.5. Then you get a 3rd team in to retain and then you decide how much they retain based on the pick/prospect.

Could have parayko for cheap for 5 years.

Good, then my idea stands as a possibility.

They don't want to retain on Parayko, but will on Buch. So grab both

Necessity is the mother of invention... can't afford any fat wallet bros on your D? Grab some scrubs, see what happens Cap'n.

I'm just glad Briesbois didn't give up his next 34 picks for Edmundson.

Now, I am just waiting him for him to throw away those picks on Dumba or some obscure winger I have never heard of.

No but 5 years of parayko at a cheap contract when we have the big guys eating a lot of salary you’ll need to figure out ways to get stuff done.

Agreed. I don't mind parting with some promising pieces to lock up a player like him.
