“Armstrong wants penthouse value for players”

Post by theograce »

…”and he’s not going to get it 15 games into the year.”

Darren Dreger

What a mess it must be in that room lol. Here we are once again. Kyrou is being described as “disgruntled” lol. No sheet.

Just another Tarasenko where everyone is unhappy for a couple years I guess.

Not sure if what you posted is the entire context. I do not follow any posts, as social media to me is who is first to post, no context and no substantial content. Often scrubbed to meet the poster's intent... So in that bubble...

Consider this if Army is not currently selling - if there are shoppers, he is going to ask for the most return he can get, only makes sense. He might likely be seeing what chemistry and puck luck might change for the better for now rather than sell the farm. Not saying this team will go worst to first, or even playoffs, but I would guess Army has that in his thought process at the moment.

And how come no one ever uses the term "gruntled"? Sure doesn't sound being content, even though it is...

Yes it would be wise for Army to advertise his players and start off asking for other teams' scraps in return. Great way to open negotiations. :lol:

Well the best part is everyone knows he’s been gaping open for a while now.

I guess we sit on our problems … pretend they aren’t there.

Nah - how much lower can the stock of Buch, for instance, go? Kyrou? This goes against the principle of buy low sell high. Might as well ask for the moon or see if the players / team can right the play and then trade them when there is more of a value proposition. If not, then I am sure the same trash will be available later as a return. Why panic now?

Rest assured. Fear not. We got this. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT ARMY IS A GREAT GM AND IS SITTING ON OVERFLOWING TALENT. :). Trust me. Other GMs are as clued in on Army as the Army Moms are.

Makes trade. “Didn’t get value”

Doesn’t make trade “he wants too much value”

The Dallas Stars were really bad with Armstrong as GM. It took a few years after he left but they drafted their way into one of the best, most complete teams in the NHL. He left that team with very little talent on the team and in the pipeline.

Now it has a problem with Army Moms? Guess it doesn't support the troops, either?

Soccer moms are the worst. Except for dance moms.

To whom it may concern:

When I make a statement, and the only replies that I get back are insults, that tells you that my one-timer went 5-hole.

Some Blues fans love to trash our players thinking that will get Army to make the moves. It's hilarious how they just continue to have post after post about how terrible our players are and want them all traded for any player that draws a breath. :lol:

Glad to hear it. Oh and if Dreger is right, then just be patient and wait.
