He is a guy I couldn't root for as a member of the Penguins. Seems like someone is looking for site hits and nothing else.

You certainly need an education lesson on hockey players..Kadri is far from a joke,he is a talented young centre ,he is aggressive he does have 95 points in 145 games he still going to get better,in other words if you don't have anything intelligent to say...well im sure you can finish the rest of that sentence

So, is he centering Pittsburgh's third or fourth line?

Ok to be honest though the way Crosby and kunitz have played any one can be on that line and look good

I beg to differ I've seen chuck kobasew play on that line and even tanner glass for a little bit yesterday this team is desperate for a player to stick on the right side of Sid, and a move to do that would obviously help out the bottom six scoring wise because they have been awful all year.

Or moving to wing.....
Kadri on Crosby's line would be ridiculous.

Still, makes no sense though for Toronto to trade Kadri to Pitt when they need a 1C.

Lol, Bettman would step in and then change the trade, sending Crosby to Phx so that he can continue to sell hockey in markets that can't support it.

Blah blah blah, says the elitist hockey snob from a market that shows up like lemmings jumping over the cliff to a franchise that can't ever seem to get its sh*t together to even win a cup since 1967.

If Kadri does come to Pittsburgh, I can definitely see Sutter going the other way. Exchanging centers and I know I was expecting a little more out of Sutter, I wonder if the Pens feel the same way.

Sutter is playing just about like I would have figured. Considering he's been playing with a rotating array of AHLers this season, I think he's been fine.

You apparently missed the part where Crosby called him a joke to Dion and told him to make sure he told Kadri.

Leafs would never trade Kadri for Sutter...that would be plain stupid.

We just haven't found a way to be the worst team in the league 4 years in a row to gather top picks...

That's right. The Penguins didn't do anything special to get good. They were just exceptionally terrible for a long time. (Chicago too)

Right, because the penguins need another center. Sid, Malkin, and sutter aren't enough so they want kafir for the 4th line center role. My sources say that the pens also are looking at Ryan o'reilly for their 5th line center

- Emperor Filonius


Definitely not saying he's been playing terrible or anything like that. I think he's playing ok but wouldn't be surprised if they felt Kadri is an upgrade there. Plus he'll be an RFA after this season while Kadri has 2 years left. I like Sutter, I really do. But I'd make that deal.

Actually he called kadri's actions after the hit a joke hence why Dion said "you wouldn't like I if I hit you like that either " paraphrase but pretty close to what was said on 24/7

I have no issue with what the team did. They won two cups, were terrible for a few years, gathered a lot of good draft picks, won another cup, and are now a top team that will contend for the cup for the better part of a decade. I would rather deal with bad years and a full rebuild than watch a mediocre team that spends too much on FA and continues to finish middle of the pack.

It could be worse, they could of had a top 10 draft pick for like the last 8 years and still be terrible.. Sorry oilers

Yes he would play wing with Crosby. Sid has played with 9 different RW's this year and the best option right now is brian gibbons.

I'm hearing a lot of chatter on Halak + Stewart + Berglund + 1st for Fleury + Malkin. A strong e0.0000001
