It Will cost more than that to dump Campbell.

Parayko’s a 25 point D with bad underlying numbers, he makes 6.5M for 6 more season after this one making 6.5M. I don’t watch St. Louis and I assume he’s still a decent D but it’s not a good contract. Blues would get a recent top 10 pick that needs some NHL minutes and a 1st round pick while cutting salary and 3 years of term.

Paryanko for Broberg and 1st isn’t bad or Broberg and a 1st to dump Campbell.

Ebs, you are correct that Parayko isn't what he once was and doesn't have great numbers, but St. Louis still considers him a core piece from what you hear and he is still a top 4 defenseman, so that's worth something. A bit of a high cap hit, but still a respectable player.

While Campbell isn't even an AHL level backup, so that's complete dead cap. Along with a mid first and a B/ C prospect. There's just nothing worthwhile for St. Louis.

Replacing one bad contract with a more expensive longer bad contract is an Edmonton move.

Broberg and a 1st for Parayko? I’d maybe take him for free considering the Oilers are in a win now mode but probably gonna be a bad contract in 3 years. Also Broberg is definitely not a C prospect. He’s for sure an NHL player on a team with room for him.

I think it’s actually a good trade, Parayko’s contract ain’t any better so.

The term is definitely scary for Parayko. Campbell would be an easy low cap buyout for St. Louis after a couple seasons of retooling. I think it would be worth it for St. Louis to get a couple solid pieces while trading away expensive term.

Paryanko Is a big mobile defensive RHD those don’t grow on trees.

His team is worse when he’s on the ice. I’m not a fancy stats guy so I’m being a hypocrite by using his corsi and what not against him. But I can’t imagine he has much value. 25-30 would be good value but 30-36 isn’t gonna age well IMO. St. Louis should be looking to get younger anyway.

Is Parayko really worth that much? Does Edmonton want to handcuff themselves with a 6.5M contract for many years? I don't think its worth it for them

I think they need to balance between win now and keeping their window open wide. Campbell is as negative value as it gets and this trade would bring back a bigger contract but a way more useful piece. Last few seasons of the contract could be bad but it would be a win for the first few seasons.
