Thread: Getting Parayko
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeastModeUnknown</b></div><div>You are stupid. Parayko is a top 5 defensive defenseman, and 2 RNH he is a 2C. Parayko is a #1 D-man. Schenn is a 2C. and Lucic is a cap dump. You are high or you really love EA.</div></div>

If Nugent Hopkins is only a #2 center and he's likely better or at the very least equal to the Blues current #1 center then Brayden Schenn isn't a #2. Based on the 2nd half of last year and how this year is going Schenn hasn't been very good at all for what appears to be about 1.5 seasons. He's likely a better wing than a center anyway.

Parayko is a #2 on his own team. He's not a top 5 defensive defenseman. And even if that's true it's not a very valuable commodity since the Blues are at best mediocre or sub-mediocre team. Blues fans maintain a belief than Parayko is the next Pronger and it's totally unfounded. He's a good defenseman that has an okay offensive upside but he'll never be great.

Thread: Kris Russell to Toronto
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Well opinion is subjective and my opinion is that Russell is <strong>not</strong> a top 4 on most teams. He's overpaid for what he does and the thing he does do very well is something the NHL is moving away from for dmen. Blocking shots is always admirable and may stop some pucks from going into the net but needing to do it too often is usually a sign that that dman is in his own zone too often.

Not saying they couldn't use him. He could help them but if the price is Johnsson and they have to pay Russell 4M a year for another 3 years, IMHO, I'd decline and look for a different solution. This helps Edm by clearing some much needed cap space than it does bolster the Leafs blue line.</div></div>

Besides Reilly who do you have that would be in the top 4 on most teams?? Don’t say Gardiner cause he is horrendous!
