Would Marco Rossi Be A Good Fit For The St. Louis Blues?

The topic here is Marco Rossi, correct?

(feeble attempt this doesn’t turn into another Petro thread).

Your opening post on Rossi was too complete and covered it all to keep discussing it, it's your fault we ran out of Rossi

Fair enough.

lol I was just going to say the same thing, Arguing about Petro and the bleedr effect is probably the best path forward here.

The Blues expected Schwartz to depart in free agency (to Seatle) so they didn't protect him. Seattle didn't need to select him, they selected Dunn when Armstrong protected the guy who hit Thomas that time in the Finals, did you see that big hit? What a physical hitter! and crushed Armstrong's mind and thus our hopes for years.

Krug had just signed here the year before, no way we weren’t protecting him

I agree with you – "We already had money invested in the pot, we couldn't fold a bad hand!" was the logic and Armstrong was never going to fold that [shirt]ty hand one year after placing a big ego bet on it.

Krug did well his first year. At that point in time, why is it a bad hand? Hindsight is great now

Absolute spit take at the concept of wanting to get rid of Krug = "hindsight"

no I was just wayyy ahead of that curve

I don't remember there being much of a curve to be honest and rightfully so, losing Petro and gaining Krug was always really bad. I think even most of the people that supported that move were manipulated into doing so by bleedr

It was the minority opinion as I recall, though there were plenty of wiser people who hated it from day 1. Bleeder was completely and thoroughly correct in the Pietrangelo argument over on this forum and he was doing an art show for lurkers to expose how people could be influenced into making themselves ridiculous by ridiculing Pietrangelo. He was doing bad behavior by toxifying the whole argument, but I was rooting for him in substance, because people were responding to him the way they would respond to me. The whole thing was so personal – until Petro absolutely curb stomped one side of the argument by leading Vegas in ice time to a Cup – that it could not be discussed in any forum. When he won the Cup and we were missing the playoffs it became undeniable. So now it's been commonly accepted for awhile that it was bad.

You know how evolution always leads to crabs? Threads here always lead to Petro
