Mayonnaise is gods gift to North Central Europeans.

For example, while I am in Maine this weekend, I will be BANGING down the lobster salad.

I'm not going to hate on you for liking mayo I'm the only one in my family that hates It ..

I remember one time my grandma hit me with a wooden spoon because I wouldn't taste her potato salad

I love the vinegar coleslaw and German potato salad is my favorite

Sweet baby Jesus please trade for him!!!

Penguins want Kane, again Allegedly.

They trade Kessel to SJ or ARZ.

What kind of trade does it take to get Kane on Pittsburgh.

Considering our lack of LW depth as well as really no other immediate LW impact players, I offer the following which heavily favors Buffalo for the reasons above.

Malkin and a 5th
Kane

Actually..

Kane, 2nd<--->Sheary, 1st

That Kessel(er) article is hardly flattering.

I bet Jr is clamoring to have Kessel traded to us after that

I would trade Kane for Kessel...because I'm racist...and have a soft spot for fat people.

Straight up? Despit being dumpy, slow, egregious contract and declining play?

I figured the outlandish reasoning was an obvious indicator of sarcasm, but I guess not.

penguin fans seem to want to move him, so I wonder what he lacks

I interpreted your statement in a different fashion. I say poop like that all the time. That one's on me.

High end skill perhaps. But he sure seems to click with extremely talented players.

That article suggests the opposite on both counts.

It was clear in June, by the end of the Penguins’ second consecutive Stanley Cup run, that the organization wasn’t thrilled with Kessel. He scored 23 goals in 82 games during the regular season, not nearly enough for a player with his marvelous shooting skills. He had a huge goal — one of the most significant of the postseason — to beat Ottawa, 1-0, in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference final but scored just two more goals in the final 11 playoff games. Even though he had 23 points in the 25 postseason games, it was hard to find anyone in organization to say he was playing well.

My belief is Evgeni Malkin wasn’t thrilled to play on the same line with Kessel. And Sidney Crosby? Sullivan acknowledged Crosby and Kessel have no chemistry together. None.

Kessel has to score goals to help the Penguins. He doesn’t help the team with his forechecking or his defense. He doesn’t play any type of physical game, a big reason he has been able to play in 610 consecutive regular-season games, the 11th-longest streak in NHL history.

It’s no secret that Kessel often drives Sullivan crazy. I’m guessing he has produced the same reaction all the way up the company ladder, from Jim Rutherford to Mario Lemieux.

Kane for Kessel 1.25MM Retained.

Was talking about Sheary, not Kessel

yech.

I'd ask for 2.8 retained. That would bring his salary down to 4M.

saw the mummy tonight

it was ok, I give it a 7

not a cruise fan cept for the reacher movies

That second movie was awful....
The first was bad because of all the unnecessary closeups.

But the 1st one was watchable.

You're really close to saying Kane is better than Kessel.

Come on, I know you have it in you

Before you blow your load into your shoe, I didn't say Kane is better. I said I'd rather have him.

Playing with Malkin and Crosby I would say Kane is better in that situation. Kessel is a loafer, Kane skates hard and hits. He would click instantly, probably have a career year (77GP, 37-33-70) and then we would all get to talk about trading Kessel instead of trading Kane. Sounds good to me
