Not even close at all - come on...Jesus - Cam had a 20 goal season playing behind Smyl and Tanti and he was only 21 when he got traded. Kassian is 24.

I didnt say they were the same player, Simply pointing he a right handed big body with a scoring touch. we havent had that in a long ass time.

I would have liked to see us give him one more year and mor primnent time with the Sedins.

But it is what it is. I like Prust. Character guy.

Moving on.

#Habs GM Bergevin cut a big chunk out of his club's heart by trading Prust. It's business but Prust was massively popular w/ teammates, fans

JB needs to sign a centremen who can win a faceoff.

Losing Richardson, actually hurts as I don't think we have one C with a FO% above 50%. And Vey sucks at faceoffs.

It's too bad we can't trade the Sedins. They will keep us from a top 3 pick.

Hopefully Jake Virtanen can be that for us, and the Kassian trade frees up a spot for him, so, I like it

If this is Benning & Linden trying to make the playoffs, I'd love to see what they think a rebuild looks like.

Not sure about this one.....

I guess Kassian just took too long to develop and his bad nights were really bad.

Horvat was the top rookie in NHL in the Circle by a mile and he was over 50%

And most of the time he was going against the first line on away games without the last change

The real concern is: does he have his Viagra with him? If so, you may want to issue an Amber Alert

well Benning has called this a "Transition Period" where they are trying to get some of the young guy into the lineup and Kassian frees up a Spot for JV. Prust brings alot of heart, sou,l and Character the left when Bieksa left and for cheaper than Juice.

Personally i like this Trade alot, Kassian hasn't been able to put it together and who knows if he ever will.

I'm not going to question the players Benning has acquired, only what he leaves on the table.

A 31 year old for a 24 year old? That's the part I find frustrating,

Hey we're trying to get younger? Can't wait to hear the spin. What will really send the message are season ticket sales!
