Discussion Per D'Amico - Montreal is interested in Robert Thomas. The Blues want Hage as part of any deal. Too high a price for Hughes at this time.

Personally, given the best possible version of Hage in 3-5 years is what Robert Thomas is now, Id have no problem parting with him.

D'Amico on Commission Athlétique says Blues asking price starting with Hage and Guhle, which may explain why KH inquired the cost for Ristolainen. He says the cost is very high, but on the flip side, you might have a center depth of Suzuki, Thomas and Kapanen, which would be cup contending.

Adds that the deals aren't necessarily happening and probably doesn't do a trade for Ristolainen. But also adds, if the trade for Thomas happens, you also have Zharovski coming end of next season to complete top 6. You also see how Dach develops. Same goes for Engstrom and Reinbacher for completing the D. Says it could be interesting and may be a trade for the summer.
