Because I don’t like a poopty person with a good one timer and free reign to leave his feet for “big hits”?

Craig Adams, obviously, the piece of poop who fights his own team mates in practice. Gotta love those good people and not the NHL superstars who give kids with Down Syndrome cars.

Most teams avoid putting out their biggest plugs against the greatest goal scorer of all time.

Not sure how he deserves it. It is an earned team accomplishment. He spent much of his career as an individual wearing a C that was amazing on a stat sheet. Not a Team Captain. He has had some of the most talented lineups behind him and he faded to the back. And now that they are the darlings of the NHL, he DESERVES it?

He has 112 points in 116 career playoff games. 2012-13 was the only bad playoffs he's had, 2 points in 7 games, other than that he has been one of the most consistent playoff performers. This is wrong.

No it doesn't appear that way. A plug like him playing in the Stanley (frank)ing cup final? It's just unfair isn't it?

They wouldn't/shouldn't. It's just Yinzer fans being Yinzer fans.

They absolutely shouldn't. If they do, they're (frank)ing idiots. Not only that, but a Conn Smythe worthy performance in 2015-16, led the league in PP points this season. You just don't trade elite talent. You rarely ever get a fair return.

Kessel is going nowhere. This is becoming as bad as the perennial "Malkin leaving to be the man" trades.

I love how when Kessel struggles we hear Sully and him don't get along, and management is shopping him. When Kessel is doing well, like this year where he put up 92 points, we hear how great him and Sully are getting along.

Now? After he had a rough post-season it's back to the bullpoop.

I saw him walking on Michigan Ave in Chicago once. His head was the size of a semi-trailer cab. He used to beat up Bill Brasky and take his lunch money.

I did a little Armchair GMing on capfriendly with the cap at $80M.

-I let Rowney walk, moved Kuhn and Simon's RFA rights for late picks.

-I traded Sheary to FLA for the rights to Petrovic and resigned him at 3yrs/$2M

-I traded Hunwick to AZ for a couple of late picks (this is the toughest to justify)

-Re-signed Rust 3rs/$3M, Oleksiak 2yrs/$1.1M, Sprong 3yrs/$700K, Sheahan 3rs/$2.75M

-Signed Komarov 2yrs/$2M

-Signed Antoine Roussel 3yrs/$2.3M

-Still had a little over $1M fee cap space

Jake-Sid-Horn
Hags-Geno-Kessel
Rust-Brass-Sprong
Roussel-Sheahan-Komarov
ZAR

Dumo/Letang
Maatta/Schultz
Oleksiak/Petrovic
Ruhwedel

My goal was to replace what they lost in Cole and upgrade the 4th line.

I've seen worse but that is a lot of moves just to end up with some very marginal upgrades over what you already have.
