No it’s not sticker shock at all. It’s about player assessment and making him earn the highest contract in franchise history. Because they are playing him more? Because he skates well? There’s propaganda right now. If Montgomery truly thinks Broberg can take over games right now…he’s back on the sauce. Tell me one game he took over. I wanna watch it lol.

You can point to the cap increase all you like, but that’s not the point. Buchnevich is getting 8 per long term in part to them seeing a cap rise, but that’s doesn’t make it good when you compare to peers.
Lol you’re complaining about making him the highest paid player in Blues history while ignoring the circumstance that’s driving it (the rising cap). That’s what sticker shock means bro!

You’re laughing out loud because the only thing you keep saying is the cap is rising? Don’t make players earn contracts because the cap is rising? That’s your argument?

Hey Opie,

I'm not Petro
My name is Monty
Petro left you years ago
My team is St. Louie Blue
But Petro chose to leave you
'His mangled body brings back your disgrace

[Verse]
He was your morning light
His smile told of no night
Your love for him grew
With each rising sun
And then one winter day
His greed led him away
He left you here
Drowning in your tears
Here, where you've stayed for years
Crying Petro, Petro

[Chorus]
I'm not Petro
My name is Monty
Petro left you years ago
My team is St. Louie Blue
But Petro chose to leave you
'His mangled body brings back your disgrace

[Outro]
I'm not Petro

Hutson as a 20-year-old

66 points (pacing for 70 this year)
123 blocks (pacing for ver 130 this year)
Runs a pp
Plays when the game is on the line at a deficit

Broberg as a 24 year old
Pacing for 30 points
135 blocks
Doesn’t sniff a pp
Doesn’t play when the game is on the line at a deficit

But hey…the cap is going up lol

Can you imagine how weak this guy is in life? It's the holidays and sports are red hot right now, and the guy can't do anything but find negativity. A sad, lonely, submissive, simp of a guy.

It’s about assessment, term, and principle. Yes millions. It’s not your money so it doesn’t matter?
Not millions. Just one million. Are you such an expert of the NHL market for defensemen that you are willing to invest this much time trolling over a 1M discrepancy between your opinion and what he might hypothetically get? I don't see the difference. This team has much bigger problems than whether they spend 7M vs 8M on Broberg.

I’ve clearly talked about term here. Yes many millions. Maybe you missed that. Calling me a troll over questioning the great Broberg.

You ok?

Your life is following someone you think is a loser repeatedly saying the same.

I’ll be better if Broberg takes over a game like Montgomery says he does
