The trade still requires Parayko’s approval, but it is believed to go through.

32-year-old Parayko has played his entire 11-year NHL career in St. Louis and won the Stanley Cup with the team in 2019. This season, he has recorded 1 goal and 14 assists in 58 games.
The Canadian Olympic defenseman is in the fourth year of his eight-year, $52 million contract.
It’s believed Parayko to Buffalo is going to happen. Things are being finalized. Player needs to approve, etc.
