So this is why the site's so slow

That feels like a lot for him.

Do the fans get a veto and can we use that on this? lol

San Jose has to get to the cap floor somehow.

Not this badly. Kunin sucks.

Sign me up! I'll play. I'll help you guys tank. I'll take 1M less than Kunin.

I'd say that makes him trade bait...but the Sharks can't retain on contracts anymore. So it's a little bit weird.

He's just terrible, but at least it's only one year - I was worried he'd be signed for term.

 

[CanadienShark]

I want a redo.

 

[DG93]

Uh okay...I guess

His QO was literally more.

Probably just giving him another shot since they have to spend to the floor anyway

Kunin is fine as a 4th liner. Problem is 4th liners shouldn't be making 2.75M a season. At least its only one year though.

Never understood the Kunin hatred. He's not spectacular but he's also not a terrible 3rd liner. They gave him a 1 yr contract at 3rd line money. Nothing wrong with this at all

He’s a terrible 3rd liner.

He has zero offensive talent whatsoever and isn't good defensively either. He hits people.

 

[weastern bias]

Thank God, what would we do without him?

 

[Cas]

Honestly, we have tons of cap space, he's signed for just one year, and it's not even a big salary (much bigger than he's worth, of course), and maybe some playoff team will be suckered into buying "physicality" at the deadline and we can turn him into a 4th.

He's awful and I hate watching him, but this is just about the best case scenario I could imagine for keeping Kunin.

Kunin is what they call a "good locker room guy"

That's gotta be it, because he's not a good hockey player.

I'll take league minimum and I'm 44 years old
