That’s what I mean by preference. There is no place in this country I would want to live less than Florida.

Humid and sticky. Dirty beaches. 1950s politics. Most of it will be under water soon.
by the large number of people moving there seem to disagree. but as far as not wanting to live there I'm in agreement.

Oh well. Best for all sides that Kap's gone. Maybe he gets a better shot somewhere else and that team caters to his style to help get the most out of him. Wasn't gonna happen here.

There goes an integral TDL asset everybody was using to make the cap work in all these hypothetical trades. :laugh:

Kapanen playing for Berube is hilarious. I am fascinated to see if that works.

I genuinely do hope the best for him. seems like a nice kid. Just didn't work here. Our goofus coach didn't help matters trying to turn him into a shutdown forward.

Yeah, I wanted JR to go after Kap (not anywhere near the price paid but still) and was excited to see if he'd continue improving here like he'd been in Toronto before they had to shove him out the door for paying like eight guys $10 million AAV.

So ends an ugly saga. Oh well.

That's amazing. I really didn't think anyone would bail us out on that contract.

Don't care if Kapanen puts up 100 points there next year I'm relieved to get out of that
Terrible asset management by our FO

They might. Kane's apparently sick of the way things are dragging on so he pulled a Giroux and told the FO to f*** off and make a trade work with the Rangers.
What a douche…I hope the Hawks refuse to trade him there

Per a team source, Kasperi Kapanen didn't travel with the Penguins to St. Louis. So he won't play for his new team today.

Hextall is lying and all GMs to this at this time of the year of who they might not give up or flat out won't give and they may make be the frontrunners on some guy at the trade deadline next Friday or may stand still.. Why I say the Pens are playing games with the media sources right now..

That's good, because he's going to score every single time he plays against us for the duration of his career now because that's always how this works.
Is it bias that all players we cast aside as turds turn into value?

I'm seriously impressed the Hawks have taken half a year to make AHL Lafferty into 'hold them out for health, big target' lol
