There are two players - two forwards - who clearly seem to be on the verge of being involved in a trade with the St. Louis Blues.
There is obviously the star forward Jordan Kyrou, who has been talked about a lot over the past few months.
But there is also the 31-year-old center Oskar Sundqvist.
These are two regular forwards who were surprisingly scratched from the Blues' lineup and sent to the press box this month.
Things are shaking in St. Louis, that's for sure!
An exact price revealed if the Montreal Canadiens want to acquire St. Louis Blues forward Oskar Sundqvist
This comes from the excellent Cam Robinson:
Cam Robinson: Regarding Oskar Sundqvist: "I had one source indicate that it shouldn't cost more than a 2nd round pick, maybe even get him for a 3rd if the Blues are convinced they're gonna lose him."

Knowing this, would you be willing to give up a second-round pick or a third-round pick in exchange for center Sundqvist?
Personally, I wouldn't do it immediately, but if Kent Hughes can't find a better solution before the trade deadline, it could definitely be an interesting option to stabilize the center line, especially with the long-term losses of Newhook and Dach.
Oskar Sundqvist, 31 years old, is a big, complete center at 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds.
He was a third-round pick of the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2012.
He's off to a fairly productive start to the season with the Blues with 8 points in 11 games after recording 20 points in 67 games last season.
