Did the big contract play into how Kyrou played? The Athletic reported early this season that teammates were frustrated that he had gotten the big payday before really proving himself.

Rutherford also said on the radio interview specifically that teammates were bothered that a guy that doesn't put in the effort, doesn't practice correctly and hasn't put in his time, is now making more than any player on the team.
maybe this was the same source that told JR that Vladi would never play a game for the Blues again

No. We won the Cup before Montgomery was even here, and half this board was talking all last season about how this team was a fraud due to the poor underlying numbers.

Props to Montgomery for what he did in Boston but to imply he would have been the savior here doesn’t align with facts.
"Montgomery is responsible for ..."
"Robinson is responsible for ..."

🤔 It's like if we don't have all these other great people around, the Berube-Ott-Van Ryn threesome is going to shit all over itself and the team.

Lou korac never fails to crack me up. Feel like kyrou will end up being run out of town by how much the media here hates him

watching the play, my first thought was why didn't the D standing right there help out by doubling on the puck? why didn't someone show along the wall to give him an outlet?

That's on the D too. You either support or you prevent the puck from leaving the zone if Kyrou loses the battle. Our D-man did neither. Who was that on D, by the way, Krug? I don't even remember. But Kyrou also doesn't win those battles enough.

Kane never won those battles in his career either but that isn't his skillset, just like Kyrou
if a player gets stuck in a board battle with a stronger player he is going to lose those battles more often than he wins them, it is why (especially with a man advantage) you have teammates who should be helping by doubling on the puck

I agree. That's why I said "That's on the D too."

It was Krug. We wouldn’t be talking about Kyrou losing battle if Krug had done his job better there.
