Proposal: Parayko to PIT

[SouthGeorge]

You're judging defensemen's ability by the number of points they score and comparing Oleksiak to Parayko...lol

Yeah, how else are you suppose to compare them? Oleksiak and Parayko are both 6'7. Nice hands and cannon for a shot.







We don't need two of the same players.

 

[Colt55]

Schultz is better than Parayko and Kessel has put up 200 points in two years.

Wow your pretty wrong on that one. He put up 59 points in 15-16, he put up 70 in 16-17 and he put up 92pts in 17-18.

Now im sure im not a math expert but neither combination of those three years ever equals 200 it tallies as follows.

15-16 + 16-17 = 129 pts thats 71 points shy of 200
15-16 +17-18= 151 pts thats 49 points shy of 200
16-17+17-18 = =163 pts thats 37 pts shy of 200

Im pretty sure your full of dog doo doo. You cant even round up on these LOL

So now you're comparing Parayko and Oleksiak by height (Parayko is not 6'7" btw), youtube highlights, points and +/-...



Stop trying to pretend like you know anything about Colton Parayko. Your ignorance is showing. Fanrkly, this discussion is not worth having.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

Parayko is basically a Shea Weber than can skate.

I get why Stl fans don't want to trade him. Hell if I had him I wouldn't want to trade him either, but I still think Kessel + Schultz is too much to give up.

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

So a guy who's total career points is one more than Parayko's production last season alone is the same player?

Value-wise it doesn't make sense for you guys, but player-wise, it doesn't make sense for us.

 

[Breakers]

Please Please dont ever compare Justin Schultz to Parayko.

Schultz SUCKS in his own zone, hence the terrible shot suppression, tradition numbers.
Schultz gets incredibly generous zone starts, and cushy matchups.

70+92+23+9 = 194. I know your not subject to long playoff runs. But I counted the full season as regular season + playoffs. I wouldn't expect people who think they have the next Bobby Orr in Parayko to understand.

 

[bleedblue1223]

Oleksiak is basically Hedman then, why does Pittsburgh even want Parayko?

 

[SouthGeorge]

He's no Hedman but he's the same type of player as Parayko. Full season with the Pens and he will put up the same stat line. Parayko might be slightly better but not worth our best pmd and QB of our PP. We don't want him. I haven't seen OP in Pens section all year.

Parayko is the same type of player as Hedman, therefore Oleksiak is the same as Hedman in your opinion.

This has been very entertaining.

 

[Dbrownss]

Oh hey, another Parayko to (insert any team) that has turned into a pissing match. Blues fans say no thanks, Parayko is then downplayed and isnt even needed.



Ok we get it Parayko is mediocre, kindly stop asking for him.

 

[SouthGeorge]

I just realized it was the Blues #1 D getting embarrassed in this clip

 

[bleedblue1223]

Can we have the Nylander threads again? Never thought I'd say that lol. New found respect for Toronto fans.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

Value-wise it doesn't make sense for you guys, but player-wise, it doesn't make sense for us.

Exactly this.

Please Please dont ever compare Justin Schultz to Parayko.

Schultz SUCKS in his own zone, hence the terrible shot suppression, tradition numbers.
Schultz gets incredibly generous zone starts, and cushy matchups.

He's improved a lot defensively, especially this past season. He's actually been very solid for us in the playoffs. His offensive numbers may have dipped down a bit but he was so good defensively no one really cared for it.

Schultz may have sucked in the past, but for the past 2 years he's been arguably our best dman.

You know there's an age requirement to join this website, right?

I'm sure it would be REALLY hard to find a clip of Letang or Schultz getting embarrassed...

I know but there should be a hockey IQ test.

Could you find a clip of Parayko embarrassing Letang or Schultz?

How about Ryan Reaves?



Solid solid D there by Shultz lol

 

[Hockeyholic]

Why would St. Louis trade the second coming of Bobby Orr?

That's Reaves not the St Louis Bobby Orr...

 

[Em etah Eh]

Yeah, well I don't think anybody has seen you in the Pens section all year. I don't know that they would want to claim you either, haha.

What do you have against Parayko? You keep popping up in threads and I really don't understand your fixation on a player you've basically admitted you don't know much about.

 

[BA Carroll]

To STL: Kessel + Schultz / Maatta

To PIT: Parayko + ?

I assume the question mark would be a middle six type winger with a modest salary but enough to make it work for STL's cap.

More pieces/picks could easily be involved ....thoughts?

You misspelled "Edmonton" and "Draisatl".
Because that is the only scenario where Parayko gets dealt any time soon.

Maybe it's an alt acc for backwards name guy?
