This also falls on Lou of course.. bringing in these old Vets who are above the law b/c of what they did elsewhere.. Everyone talked about how close knit this team was and Lou traded Toews away for very little.... at the time I thought it was b/c he was going to lose him in the expansion draft for nothing (don't talk to me about the cap. You can easily make moves to get cap room. they did that last summer easily.. $4 mill is not why Toews was traded).
He then trades Leddy using same excuse.... then allows Eberle to get taken protecting MM.. nuts.
This team has Toews last year they win the cup...
if they played Wahlstrom they win the cup..

Wow, both your posts are spot on. Fire lou and Trotz NOW!!!

The only thing Lou got right was when he and Barzal had a deal on his contract and was waiting for JB's LTIR to kick in before signing him

These posts take Monday morning quarterbacking to a new level.

I already agreed to Tank for Tito and Bolduc. You failed to send me the paperwork. Don't come in here asking for more after we've already agreed in principle. Now, send me the damn paperwork for the trade you & I agreed to or quit bringing it up in here. Of course, it seems strange that for someone who loves and builds up Tank so much, you're awfully anxious to get rid of him.

I dont want to get rid of him. He requested a trade at begining of season so its bound to happen. I mostly come here becuase most you peeps said tarasenko was trash and would never get back to his former self.

31gp 12g 17a 29p and playing ssome of the best hockey is by far not a shell of his former self.

he is pacing for 32g 45a for 79 pts hmmmmmmm

I think someone here said he was an expert on shoulder injuries, and they never heal right........or something like that.

John is correct. There was one guy that said shoulder injuries don't heal right. He also said that Tank would be trash and the first hit he took would end his career (something like that). He also said Tank wouldn't score 30 goals (don't remember what the exact number was) in a season. But he was the only one.

So lets unpack a couple things from your post.

First bold: Um, no. Just because he requested a trade doesn't mean the Blues have an obligation to trade him. He's under a contract that he agreed to and signed. Now, it doesn't mean it won't happen. We'll see how it plays out. Maybe Tank gets dealt at the deadline.

Second bold: There was only one guy that didn't want Tank and said he was "trash". He doesn't speak for any of us or the Islanders. Much like you have no say in ANY trade or signing the Blues make. So stop coming in here making dumb trade offers. Even if we did like the trade offer, not a single one of us is qualified to accept it. Nor are you qualified to offer it.

As far as the stats you posted, that's the reason I wanted Tank. He's a goal scorer.

Lastly, please learn grammar and/or how to spell. When you see a redline under a word while typing, that means it's either spelled incorrectly or you're missing an apostrophe.

Thank you

Speak for yourself. I am qualified to accept trade offers. In fact I already did accept it. You can expect an announcement from Ek shortly.

Oh look you are bringing up old sht again (that isn't true) like my wife.


maybe you should reread my posts.. .never said to fire either of them but you can certainly criticize them and their moves without saying "Fire them" ..

Parise is a disaster, Chara is a disaster, Palmieri is a disaster.... While Eberle and Toews are lighting it up eslewhere... pointing that out doesn't mean I want Lou fired.. it means he fcked up and I can call him on it.
