Great job, gentlemen LGB
No. Trade Hofer, get Bennie some defenders in front of him. We need muscle back there, think the likes of a Pronger, MacInnis or an enforcer like Shannahan or Probert on the wing.
Bad idea let’s make another knee jerk reaction you guys are wrong about that. They both had their bad games when the chips are all on the line. I wouldn’t have won another goalie than Bennington in the net come on guys wake up.
Binner and Faulk for McDavid, Deal or No Deal. LGB!
Why do you think Edmonton wants him so bad because it’s what kept him from winning the cup they need a goalie like him. Who the hell doesn’t
Get a bum in the net yea why didn’t we keep the youngster in the minors then trade Bennington instead of inheriting a crap goalie no that ain’t good
Binnington for Skinner, Savoie, and 3 first round draft picks. Waive skinner, trade for Ellis, and let him and hofer battle for playing time
Now you’re talking a little better
Exactly !!!!
Hofer is good, but not having Ellis in the system anymore, I would be kinda nervous about losing Binner….
Yeah go ahead and trade our key players…..not!!! Schenn I can see but one of our goalies is only going to weaken us. Hofer is not ready for a head spot. Harkens back to us trading away Peron, O'Reilly, Maroon and others after we won the stanley cup. We haven't been the same since! If this is rebuilding it sucks for the fans!
No NoNo and No….
i just dont see it .. who the hello on edm would we want … not skinner for sure .. i rather trade hofer tbf … but edm is not a good trading partner , montreal would be better
Horrible is a little strong!
That move gives Oil the goalie they've needed forever. It does nothing for StL 5:49
Hofer is not a Hall of Famer.
You 2 guys must be high to trade binner for skinner unless your oilers fan
No way Binner is going anywhere.
NOT GONNA HAPPEN. Wouldn't be prudent
Lol….we are not trading our goalies. We need a true shooter and more than anything a better defense.
Not sure if you have seen but Edmontons defense is just as bad as ours.
Also Edmonton is dependant on McDavid and Drysaitl to create scoring on at least 50%of their goals. Everyone else on that team is just as good as what the blues have now.
It is WAY too early to he talking like this. Unless the return is an elite player, there is ZERO point in this
0 interest in Skinner as the main piece back for Binner.
Trade binner and kyrou please. The rest will sort its self out.
trade hofer instead or binner to mtr for a cartload of prospects and maybe their goalie monty
Binnington is not going to be on team Canada I mean almost ever team hates him
This would make a lot of sense for Edmonton, but I really hope we dont trade Binnington. He's not perfect, but he's our trash Binn.
A trade report is a report on a trade. This is a rumor.
Binner is the ONLY reason why this blues team will even stays near or slightly above .500
They wanted binnington last year but the Blues were still in the playoff hunt so no deal. I don’t see this team doing that’s again. If a d man is included it would be Kessel or Faulk. The question is what would St. Louis get back. I’m sure Edmonton would prefer Faulk but can they afford his salary along with Binnington without sending salary back out. I don’t think so so if a d man is involved it’s probably Kessel which isn’t an upgrade imo. His play has been shaky at best
Of course , it makes sense that Edmonton would like to trade for Jordan Binnington. However, it makes no sense for the Blues to trade Binnington to the Oilers for SKINNER, especially after losing Colton Ellis to Buffalo on waivers.
If the return listed is true Armstrong has to pull the trigger. Three first? Come on that’s a huge return. The additions of Faulk really isn’t possible due to cap restrictions unless army takes salary back. Faulk shaking a great offensive season his value hasn’t ever been higher as a Blue
No freakin way! Where do you guys even find this smut?
Unless they are adding one of their top forwards ain't going to happen. Sincerely all blues fans
I feel Bennington has been rumored to Edmonton since last year (if not longer). He makes sense they need a goalie bad (and have for many years)
Has to be a MASSIVE haul for a goalie with his resume
I will be willing to say if I'm wrong on this, but I do not see this happening unless binner wanted it. I like this channel but there are other things you can talk about that isn't dumb rumors that only sew division between the fan base and possibly the players if they see these dumb headlines
Skinner is perfect for a “tank” season
Would expect much MORE than a goalie swap. If EDM is desperate Skinner can’t be their primary chip, right?
Need to try to be SELLERS and getting at least slightly more value than giving up.
Don’t get rid of anyone just to get rid of them
If I was Army and they offered Skinner, Savoie, 2028 1st, 2026 2nd, and a player to make the cap work, for Faulk and Binner, I would pull the trigger. That first in 2028 could be insanely valuable if McDavid decides to walk or get traded.
Getting rid of Binnington would make the Blues into the Sabres–do we really want a decade of futility with no playoffs? Because that's what's going to happen if Binner is traded.
That’s dumb. Edmonton would need a 3rd team to be involved. Their prospects aren’t that good and a late 1st is not gonna get Binnington.
I dont see how this wouod help the Blues at all. Binnington is doing great but we have nothing going on on the actual ice
