GDT: Sabres @ Habs

[a smell of green grass]

The Sabres are losing because they are missing Colton Parayko, right?

Yes, the now greatly devalued Parayko who wouldn't have made a difference anyway because he just wanted an easy ride, not tough playoff games. That's what we're supposed to believe, which is UTTER nonsense.

Right?!
Such a disgusting take on one of the better Blues to don the note.
Obviously antagonizing.

Ok. So let's set it all in stone.

I believe that Parayko didn't want to give up his gig on easy street.

You believe that Parayko didn't have enough time to make the decision.

Well, pardon me. So what do you believe about Parayko's decision? What's the reason?

He got to chose his employer and where he works and lives. As Soungarden lyrics for Outshined "The grass us greener where the dogs are shi++ing". He had a choice so cry me a river little water bug.. Myabe I should invest in Kleenex for all the tears you cry bout this.

[HighStick]

Parayko plays 87 mins a night. He ain't on easy street here. Never has been. Even during the run. Petro got all the shine while Parayko/Bouwmeester did the ugly work. Dudes been a horse for us since day 1. Parayko deserves a statue. I hope he's here till the end of his career and gets it.

It doesn't matter one whit what I think about Parayko's decision. Astounding you don't grasp that.

As for your posts here and in the other thread, yes I have an opinion. Parayko has been an exemplary warrior for the Blues helping them win a Cup, post a 109-point season, and other smaller accomplishments. He has played through serious back pain. He has been an exemplary ambassador in the community. Hard to imagine how ANY player could better exemplify being a TRUE BLUES. He has EARNED the UTMOST in respect from EVERY CORNER. He's not getting that from you, which places you down at at worm and cockroach level in my book.

The trade was botched, leaked. What should have been handled professionally and respectfully behind the scenes got aired in public. I believe Army is furious and fit to be tied about that. Colton had rights which he earned, he exercised those rights. He is no more nor any less a TRUE BLUES player today than at any time prior. I believe this will be the case until he either retires or agrees to a trade.

And, he absolutely would have made a difference in this series. Who could believe he wouldn't?

I want what is best for the Blues. Army told me that Parayko going to Buffalo was best for the Blues. The choice that Parayko made was best for Team Parayko.

Now, the Blues will have to sell Parayko for pennies on the dollar, if they can trade him at all. Of course, that doesn't concern you. Your loyalty is with Team Parayko.

Keep digging, it's befitting. The Blues don't have to do anything with Parayko. What if anything they do remains to be seen.

You continue to disrespect a player who deserves your respect. He has RIGHTS under his contract. You advocate stripping or ignoring those rights. I cannot respect that. I have quite a bit of direct life experience with employment contracts. Your take is WAY off-base, naive even. When you sign a contract either as an employer or employee you are legally bound to respect the terms of the contract. RESPECT. There's that concept again, the one you don't grasp.

You hate Army, so Army telling you anything would make you believe the opposite. Hope, Parayko finishes his career where he started it and you finish yours in this chat very soon. You have little credibility with most of the posters in here who really back the team.

A hockey player that runs from a Cup is not a hockey player.

So what pairing will Parayko be on next year? Hopefully he can relax a bit, get way fewer minutes.

Armstrong didn't tell YOU [shirt], nor is your interpretation particularly compelling to any objective observer.

Army got an offer for a player he was open to trading, and asked that player if he would consider it. That doesn't mean the Blues would be better off moving Parayko. And, hell, since when do YOU put any stock in Armstrong's opinion?

Armstrong, who YOU rant tells his team to win in April...
Armstrong, who YOU rave is too cowardly to have his scouts prepare for a top 5 pick...
Armstrong, who YOU insist is afraid of evaluating top 5 talent.

You are a (bleep) stain on this forum.

[a smell of green grass]

Armstrong wanted to move ahead with Parayko trade for the good of the Blues. Parayko, said "NO. My needs TRUMP the team needs".

Parayko should not be hated for this decision. Clearly, it was in his contract.

However, I want what is best for the team, and Parayko kicked me in the teeth, and he is well aware that he kicked me in the teeth.

MY DECISION, MY CHOICE is to tell him goodbye to my favor forever. I want players on my team that are loyal to the team and to winning. Parayko is neither.

Why would the Blues have to do anything with Parayko? The Blues are in a great spot with D on their roster/system IF someone wants to offer up something Steen wants AND if its somewhere CP wants to go then why not otherwise CP is a rock solid top 4 RHD
