Maybe you are right but in my opinion if you can't go out there in preseason and at no time look like you can play at all, that's a problem for me. A guy can get off to a slow start, he can struggles at times but in my opinion, you have to at least show flashes. He wasn't even good for a single period.
Armstrong must have had a poker debt to Chia from past GM meetings that Chia agreed to waive because to trade ANYTHING for Jerabek when he is probably going on waivers this morning makes no sense. To trade for Jerabek when he is going to go on waivers is something that Chia does. I don't care what he supposedly did, Montreal dumped him and their defense sucks and he couldn't crack the Oilers line up. Jerabek couldn't beat out Garrison, a PTO guy and that isn't my opinion, that's the truth. That is how bad he was. If he couldn't beat out Garrison, you are freaking bad.

Armstrong sought out this deal. The Oilers "released" Jerabek yesterday, so they were going to have to put him on waivers shortly. The Blues wanted the guy.
Worth noting - the Blues could also sign Garrison right now since he's only on a tryout for the Oilers - and it wouldn't have cost them anything to do so. So Garrison beat out Jerabek for the Oilers, but Jerabek beat out Garrison for the Blues. Call it a wash.

Well good for the Blues. If your calling card is supposedly offense and puck moving and you can't make a pass against junior guys and AHLers, you can't play in the NHL. It's not like he didn't get a chance to play. He got into 5 games and he was terrible in all of them and he wasn't even good in practice apparently.
