    Default Does Lundqvist to the Blues make sense

    Sure, the Rags don't play D in front of him but they are years away from being competitive again with no young help on the horizon. Does asking The King to waive his no-trade to St. Louis for their wealth of young players...rebuild the D starting with Schmaltz....make sense?

    If it is time for Rangers to rebuild then move makes some sense, gives Lundy an oppotunity to go to a contending team.

    It doesn't, just because of contracts, and the fact that the Rangers have no one to take over for the next 2-3 years until a young goalie is ready to fill the void.

    Hutton has been lights out and Allen can only play better, plus they just got Schwartz back which will be a major boost.

    When the Blues inevitably make a move it will be for a top 6 forward. I think they still need a top C to be a serious cup threat but with the abundance of W available this deadline that might be the more likely route.

    I don't see the rangers trading Lundqvist either. He's too important to them on and off the ice, they'd never get anything good enough in return to justify trading him.

    I do not think this makes sense at all for either team.

    No, becuase I don't really the the Blues needing a goalie.

    I think they could deal him offseason if they can get a replacement in free agency or via trade, not necessarily in the same trade.

    Also, last time the Blues tried to make a trade for an elite goalie on the downswing it hurt the team more than it helped (Miller).

    Don't forget about Marty!! Although it's very easy to

    And no...I think if anything Lundqvist goes somewhere else.

    It’s a shame to watch him wasting away on that team as currently constituted.
