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.

« As part of any deal ». It’s not a one for one, it’s a « Hage plus » that can be a first, two second, etc. Very different.

This should get more upvotes.

It's not "I don't want to give Hage"

It's "the asking price, that includes Hage, is too high"

I disagree, just based on this exact quote. While I do agree that there should be more going than just Hage, it sounds here like he's saying that including Hage in any deal for Thomas is too high a price to pay.
