Exaggeration. Sutter started of ahead of him due to a moronic shot attempt by Vanek, who was the cause of the break. What you are really saying is that Suter couldn't catch Sutter on a break.
Suter is playing the worst hockey of his career

This is one of those myths that is often repeated. He doesn't even crack the top 20. Completely one dimensional dman.

Jakub Kindl for Ryan Suter straight up.
edit: **** I forgot Parise will want to go with him.
Jakub Kindl and Joakim Andersson for Ryan Suter and Zach Parise.

I agree.
He should have stayed in Nashville.
Now he's stuck with a loser franchise for the rest of his career.

are you serious?
I say that in mockery of the thread about how Minnesota won't win a cup with Parise and Suter in which the OP says Suter will only play another 5 years and Parise will play alot shorter.

What the hell's going on with him? Is he playing hurt? 30mins a game for any player is a bit much to ask, even for Suter.

How dare he want to spend time with his family, especially his father who passed away this year.

He was playing pretty good before he got the mumps. Then he may have come back early or something because after that he hasn't even been close to the same.
Ryan Suter is the player I disagree with HF on more than anyone else. Every game I watch him play he ends up playing somewhere between mediocre and average. Maybe my expectations are always too high, but I'm always left wondering what player everyone else is watching...especially in his own zone. I'm well aware I just keep watching some of his rougher games but still.

The first 2 seasons with Minnesota he was a top 3 defenseman. There's no myth, only people who go to nhl.com to watch his stats and say "well he's not scoring as much as Erik Karlsson!"
C'mon, give me your best argument on why he's not a top 20 defenseman. No other player plays 30 minutes a night. And if you want to bring up +-, last year he was +15 playing on a team that got somewhat consistent goaltending.

Yeah, Suter's not terrible it's just the team around him that's bad. If Minny was still good Suter would be back to his Norris winning ways.

This. Hockey is as much a mental game as anything else, if you've got that much going on both mentally and physically it can definitely take its toll on you. Once he's had a summer to relax and get back on track he'll be back to normal next year.
Love how mods allow people like you to flame our franchise but the second I call you out on it my post gets deleted.

I can't believe I benched Gologoski for Suter last night. Have not been paying enough attention to how awful him & the Wild have been.

As if also becoming the highest paid defenseman in the NHL had nothing to do with it......

Because Nashville has won so much?
Suter was a UFA who earned the right to play wherever he wanted. My main issue with the entire situation is that (from what I read) he wasn't up front with the Preds about his intentions. Suter didn't "owe" it to the organization to stay if he wanted to play for the Wild, but IMO he did "owe" it to Poile to tell him whenever he knew that he wasn't going to be coming back.
