Woah. There’s your cap space.

PLEASE DONT KEEP JJ.

Maatta was underrated and a good soldier in two cup wins. Godspeed Olli, great dude from all accounts.

 

[Asuna]

 

[ImporterExporter]

That's step 1.

 

[BlackAndGold87]

Dominik Kahun is 23 years old and scored 37 points(13 goals) this past season.

 

[Clare2904]

His balcony lounger will miss him.

 

[K Fleur]

Maata on a game by game basis as a pen:

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Much respect to Maatta for his time here. But this is a good start, for Pittsburgh. Don't know much about Kahun other than his raw statline. But frankly I don't much care. This is a good deal, regardless.

 

[ImporterExporter]

Honestly that's a nice get.

Kahun is exactly the type of cheap young, speedy player we should be stocking up on. He's a legit 3rd line pro.

 

[Gurglesons]

Cap dump and we got a decent enough player. Solid deal

 

[cookthebooks]

wow that’s better than expected

 

[Turin]

Maatta is a good fit for Chicago.

 

[Tom Hanks]

That looks like a really good deal for both teams.

 

[K Fleur]

This hopeful feeling will disappear when JR signs Phaneuf on July 1st.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Watch his career turnaround now with the Hawks. Now that hes out West.

Actually good move by them

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Chicago fans are PISSED so therefore I'm happy. Besides Maatta needed to be gone

 

[ncm7772]

Nice.

I’ll always appreciate Maatta’s contributions, but he’s been on a slow but steady 5-year decline. It was time.

What is Kahun’s cap hit?

 

[Trade]

I like everything about this and I hope Olli blossoms as much as he can playing in Chicago.


Honestly know nothing about Kahun other than a quick check of his 37 points last year but his name kinda sounds like Kuhn and Kunitz so I’m optimistic.

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

Dominik Kahun is 23 years old and scored 37 points(13 goals) this past season.

In his rookie season no less

 

[Tom Hanks]

He played on the RW as far as I’m aware. that’s interesting

 

[JTG]

Great trade for us. Kahun is only going to get better.

 

[canadianguy77]

What are they smoking in Chi town?

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Kahun a Simon clone? Or better?

 

[Tom Hanks]

Nice.

I’ll always appreciate Maatta’s contributions, but he’s been on a slow but steady 5-year decline. It was time.

What is Kahun’s cap hit?

Just over 900k for this season then RFA
