Marco D'Amico: Re Blues rumours: "Schenn’s leadership and playoff experience make him a highly coveted piece for contenders, while speculation around Kyrou or Thomas would ignite league-wide frenzy. For now, St. Louis remains the team everyone is watching" - RG (10/30)

Got it.

D'Amico followed up saying people were mistaking his statement. Dumb.

It’s no secret Kyrou isn’t happy and that they’ve been motivated to move him for a couple years now.

Hope that helps

Honest question - is he unhappy because he's getting pushed by coaches to be a better all around player? I'm not being snarky, but legitimately curious as to the reason why he's unhappy.

There’s been tension with every coach. Berube crossed the line and hurt him deeply. That was ignorant. Then the fans turned on him because he wanted to turn the page and said something that came out wrong.

Berube, Hitch, Armstrong and Montgomery are a boys club. They don’t like/respect him much.

His name is constantly in rumors. Top analysts repeatedly saying the Blues want to move the contract. Limited ice time in big games. All of it would make anyone unhappy. He’s not from the area. Why wouldn’t he welcome change. I would

Vinny's value was last year.
Sxhenns three years ago
Sunny has none. No one wants him.
Kyrou has value around the league and would likely rather go to a team that won't demand him to play in the corner.
But we don't need another vet Neighbors type, or another vet pp defenseman.
We need a good return. And Army has NEVER had one of those.

Our best move is to tank for that 1c. Keeping as many of the skilled players under 27 as possible.

Ok.

Well, if his skin is indeed that thin, then as a coach I wouldn't want him around either. I got to a pretty fair amount of games and his level of interest wanes far more than it should based upon his paycheck.

Thin skin? Berube publicly humiliated him. Even Armstrong publicly said he didn’t respect what Berube did. You don’t do that…ever. It hurts the player and the team.

Also, if Kyrou is happy playing 14-15 minutes some nights in the playoffs…I don’t want him here anyways.

I don't remember the incident. But Berube is very old school and by all accounts was a great team mate. If he did call him out / humiliate him, then he would have tried everything and anything to get the message through to him behind closed doors and the message wasn't getting through.

Don't get me wrong. Kyrou is an incredibly skilled player. But he does have an air of immaturity about him at times.

I like Berube, but there is no excuse for what he did. He crossed the line “broke the code” as Armstrong said. Had he not been a cup winning coach or a friend or Armstrong’s he would have been fired earlier for that

All this smoke but never any fire to date...and yeah it's a play on words but true on both accounts.

Berube called him out...very debatable tactic.....JK responded poorly for his off hand dumb remarks and grew up a bit with his public mea culpa doing it. Whoop tee do. It's history and Berube is gone.

Then what's important about it is he responded very well on the ice. He's improved as a player since that day.

I consider myself fairly perspective reading players and relations between them. I don't see this animosity or resentment towards JK and I don't see some problem child out there pouting or not caring as some people are saying. I see no firm reporting or info talking about or detailing what is apparently rumored about his character or present position as a good team mate. If he hates it here he sure knows how to hide it or take it, my guess is neither. He can certainly approach DA and ask for a trade any time he wants.

Wanting to move him for hockey reasons is one thing wanting to move him for all the Peyton Place drama queen stuff is another.

I'm a fan, hope he stays and I know dam well he can help this hockey team.

You are definately spot on dhsux. Great to hear some legit hockey talk. All the rest of you guys ought to speak up too. There is too much knowledge out there guys. We all need to speak up again/more to help drown out the nonsense. I'm getting tired of reading the useless comments, instead of talking some serious Blues Hockey. I don't want to waste my time or brain cells either, but I do want to hear you guys again.

Absolutely! The show they did with the U.C.L.A. marching band knocked my socks off. The way they had the entire band walk in with sunglasses on and joining in on Tusk was phenomenal.

When asked, Kyrou was very moved by fans' reactions and apologized. He stressed that his response was about being a better player for Blues and wanting the team to win, not a shot at Berube.

Fans (honest ones), sometimes forget these guys are human and respond extemporaneously.

Berube, who said "escalated over nothing."

Kyrou, who said, "I see where [the fans] are coming from. ... I love playing here."
