Blues Superstar Could Be Moved Prior to Trade Deadline
- Elliotte Friedman says Robert Thomas could be traded before Friday’s deadline, with a high price tag likely.
- Thomas, 26, has posted strong point totals over the past four seasons, making him a hot commodity.
- The Blues could face a fire sale if they stay out of playoff contention, according to Friedman’s notes.
- Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Islanders are named as potential suitors if a deal goes through.
- Thomas could fit behind Bo Horvat on the Islanders, potentially easing Horvat’s scoring load.
- If traded, Thomas could provide immediate and future value to a new team.
- The report notes the Blues would seek a notable return if they part with Thomas.
- The deadline timing is described as imminent, with Friday identified as the cutoff.
- Friedman discussed the topic in his 'Saturday Headlines' segment for Breakaway on SI.
- The Blues’ move could impact the Metropolitan Division if Thomas changes teams.
