Yes? Also you haven't seen my posting, this isn't histrionics. You should really see me riled up

you should probably talk to a therapist. also this is the third year in a row montreal is going in with double digit picks, which i prefer over having 5 in several years, or 2011 when they had no picks in the 2nd or 3rd round.

A lot of the rest of the division either has plenty of space (Lumbus) or were missing big pieces. The optimist (never be optimistic) way to look at it is to say they're pretty happy with what they've got.

CBJ has both space and missing (lots of) pieces, which is part of the problem. Once Jones went down, their ridiculous defensive depth was injured to the point where a guy like Ryan Murray or David Savard wasn't expendable anymore.

Weird move for pitts, Kahun fit in well

He's RFA and Pitt probably can't afford to keep him with McCann, Murray, and Jarry all up for deals too.

What the gently caress? I really liked Kahun. I don't like this deal by the Pens at all.

Clearing cap and moving 1 solid player for Sheary (who I still like and rate) and Rodriguez who has decent fancies and helps push AHL players out of the line up.

With these moves I wonder if Bjugstad is moved for a defenseman of some kind.

Yeah tbh I don't think I'm all that upset about this trade. It's slightly puzzling but like... they're in Win Now mode and Sheary is good and they really need depth. I don't think there were any good defensemen to get this year? It didn't seem like Rutherford wanted to anyway which seems a bit odd.

What attitude problem?
JR is just moving through the Shero timeline very quickly. He picked the old veteran wearing number 12 and moved right on to the “putting the band back together” stage. But I’ll gladly take Sheary over Scuderi in a reunion tour.

Kahun is a winger, or at least has been playing as one. That context makes him as a throw in on the trade weird though...

Yeah upon reflection it doesn't seem too awful. I just feel about giving up on Kahun. I really liked him and how he fit.

But this certainly adds more depth to the lineup and Sheary has had success with Crosby in the past. So there's that.

Blackbelt Bobman posted:

He doesn't score much but Rodrigues has good peripherals at least.

As for Kahun, he's not a center. Pretty solid winger who can play on any line though. Very smart player. Skilled too.

He has been playing as one in Pittsburgh, but he does also play C. I wouldn't be shocked to see him play center now

e: rumor is Buffalo's not done, either, and with all the cap space they've got I wouldn't be surprised to see one more big move before it all wraps up

He’s a center, Buffalo is 31st in the league in faceoffs so bad, he’s fast that’s basically the only good thing I can say about him.

Kahun is probably gonna play center with Skinner & Marcus Johansson. Idk if that’s good or bad.
