Post by TAFKAP »

BREAKING NEWS!!!!! I can’t link because I’m on my phone just read a credible report that said not only is McJesus willing to take a team friendly deal, he’ll give more back to make sure John Kelly is calling the games. “His dulcet tones are a big reason I wanted to come to the Mecca of the Midwest (Must be a Canadian phrase. 🤷‍♂️) I want to be sure that continues”. What a guy. Many insiders are talking about this now.

The blues wanting to trade Kyrou and Kyrou wanting out according to top analysts isn’t trolling.

They know that. It just hurts them for some strange reasons. It did with Tarasenko too
Another thread destined for 5+ pages of nothing but name calling lol
I've tried to read every comment because I don't take things too seriously and it's hilarious, and I don't recall seeing any name calling. Other than one guy disparaging people of a certain age. Otherwise, it's been a golden thread and highlights what it's like when opinions are stated as facts.
Its a figure of speech. I get what yall are doing. Have your fun. But this thread, along with numerous others are pointless.

Kyrou said to his agent “of course” when asked if he’d accept.

This is being reported as a fact. The fact his agent is even consulting with him on it tells you what?

Opinions…laughing

That you actually appear to believe that “report” and quote is freaking hilarious. Of course, I don’t think you actually believe it - your bit is amusing, though.
Did you believe it when Tarasenko’s agent was leaking info?

I don’t see Kyrou or the Blues denying it. You? These are top analysts reporting this stuff guy.
Can I ask seriously why you keep referencing Tarasenko?

Yes, he handed in a trade request. A request that went nowhere for two years until the Blues traded him as a FA to be during a season where the Blues weren’t making the playoffs.

So is the point here that the Blues might one day trade Kyrou when it suits their needs and timeline?

Because I would agree. But that isn’t saying much considering that describes every player.

Just not seeing the parallel you are trying to make considering the Tarasenko example you keep going back to would have the Blues trading Kyrou circa 2031.
Because many people didn’t want to believe it. It’s a similar situation in that both sides want change. The Blues are shopping Kyrou and Kyrou seems content/happy with that. I would be too if I was him. He’s had a rough go the past couple years with management, fans and media
I don’t think anyone here has ever said they don’t believe the Blues were or have ever shopped Kyrou. This thread and its twin on the front page pretty obviously seem to come down to statements you said were made rather than whether or not the Blues have ever considered trading Kyrou.

Feel free to show otherwise. Other than that it seems as if the Blues will treat Kyrou like everyone else with a contract and keep him until it suits their needs best by doing otherwise.
What do you want me to show? Kyrou’s agent telling people he’s willing to go to Montreal with an explanation mark. Where do you think that comes from. Rumors?

Well no, you would show examples of people who don’t believe that Kyrou was or has ever been shopped. You said in your last post that is the throughline to why you keep bringing up Tarasenko as a comparison.

As my first sentence states in my previous post I don’t believe that to be true.

What I see is people disagreeing with your version of the events and how you have supported that version, I haven’t seen anyone dispute that those events happened in the past or could happen again in the future.

When people mock the informers and say it’s all speculation … it implies disbelief…right

It’s such a literal world now. It’s funny. People want to be spoonfed facts when there aren’t any and won’t be until something happens.

The reality s numerous people are stating Kyrou is actively being shopped and Kyrou is saying yup let’s gooo. And it all makes sense right now. That’s where the evidence takes us right now

Perhaps people are asking you to be literal because you shared quotes within your story?

Food for thought.

If you google any precise quote…it comes up in a nano second at the top of the page.

Or be lazy and cry that there’s no link?

So much laziness

You’re right this was easy.

Kyrou’s willingness to waive is a report, not a direct quote.

Not sure how you missed it. I’d share a link but well you know.

Kyrou's name has been on the block for quite some time, though my opinion is it became much less prominently listed, if even listed at all, on said block when his NTC kicked in.

I suspect most of the internet speculation since then is simply because people haven't caught up to the fact that the window to move him has by and large closed.

But anything beyond the fact that he was being shopped seems to be just internet gossip at this point.

It doesn't make a lot of sense for an agent to leak that a player would accept a deal to a specific team unless they know a deal is close and they are trying to pressure it over the finish line. It REALLY doesn't make sense for them to make their client appear overly enthusiastic or excited to move. That's a good way to get the player hated by their current team if they aren't ultimately moved.

“Of course, yes!”
It’s pretty clear the Blues want to move Kyrou and the contract. 2 coaches now have most likely said the same thing and he’s being squeezed out internally. This surprises you? Can’t get your head around it?

His "bit" is to bash the franchise and city any chance he gets.

And plenty here sit on their hands while he does it.

Once again making up lies with nothing to back any of it. Please post where Kyrou wants out. Please post where Armstrong wants to trade specifically calling out Kyrou.

You post something from one of your sock accounts saying something about Kyrou or his agent, then you reference it as fact. You need medical help. They have made tremendous advancement in medication for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Armstrong probably talked to 10-20 teams about trading all types of players as very few are untouchable, but I want one specific where he says he is trying to trade him.

I wont wait for a reply as like the last 3 threads I called you on you just blabber on that it is common knowledge.

Armstrong has moved on….the resident Schizophrenic and media haven’t.
Blues general manager Doug Armstrong appeared on the NHL Network recently, and dropped a pretty strong hint that he is done making any significant moves this summer, and the only thing we can draw from that is that Kyrou isn't going anywhere.

After his move of signing unrestricted free agent center Pius Suter for "some depth down the middle of the ice," the Blues GM made it sound like he's ready to hang a 'Closed for Summer' sign on his office door.

"This is probably, in my 21 years of managing, this is the strangest summer I’ve ever had. We have all of our contracts done on July 2nd. No arbitrations. Everybody’s in the fold... And so when we signed Suter, that was pretty well, put the 'Go(ne) Fishing' sign up," said Armstrong.

Exactly.

He climbs a well picked deliberately antagonizing hill and beats his chest and makes sheet up over and over.

And to your accurate comments it's not just about disagreeing with his point but how he goes about it which is precisely what you are saying.

Who argued that Senko wanted out? We went through hell and back with his agenda posts on the guy he literally hated. This went on for YEARS. The Blues player who most every fan will stand and cheer in the future despite his trials here.

It's constantly bazaaro world with him. He thrives on it.

Continue your civility with him like he has earned it. He counts on finding a dozen or so of you to carry on his charade here.

Meh, I’d argue the opposite. Trolls don’t count on civility, they count on people reacting emotionally.
