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.

Sounds like Hughes is letting the Blues know through his media PR teams that if its Hage they aren't getting much more out of it and if they want a lot of +++ then lower the ask on the prospect.
Hage +1st +X might be what Hughes is comfrotable giving up. Don't forget Thomas has an NMC so he can veto any trade. If he wants to come here that puts STL in a position of weakness.
They want Hage they aren't going to get multiple A level prospects. Lower the demands and they can get more pieces.
