STL - FLA trade

[stlouisbluesgm]

Blues Receive:

Vladimir Tarasenko at $7.50 for 2022-2023 then UFA
Ryan Getzlaf at Retired on books for 1 more year at $1.14

Panthers Receive:

1st Round Pick STL 2023 
3rd Round Pick STL 2023
3rd Round Pick STL 2024 
Lassi Thomson at $0.86 for 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 then RFA

St. Louis wants a top talent forward who plays with several guys on his team and has cap space to resign player in 2023-2024 and beyond.  Florida needs cap relief.  St. Louis still has 1st (PHI) and 3rd (TOR) in upcoming draft even after giving up 1st and 3rd and is willing to give an additional 3rd Round Pick STL 2024 and Prospect Lassi Thomson at cheap for a player like Tarasenko.

[Florida GM]

Florida accepts.

Sad to see Tarasenko go, but we need the money to resign Kris Letang.

Thanks for the dealing St. Louis
