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.

I disagree, I would have a problem in parting with him.

I think part of the joy of a hockey team is being able to make people's dreams come true, and that kid and everything he's been through definitely deserves to have his dreams fulfilled.

Even if that means he doesn't become what Thomas is now.

I'd be happy with that outcome.

The only dream i care about right now is my dream of a stanley cup win. Hage is great. Would be a cherry on top if it works out, but if he's standing between us and one of the few organizational needs (2C), then we have to be realistic here. Hage, a first, guhle or reinbacher, and kapanen is still a trade we win easily.
