Kessel Traded to Pittsburgh

[forty_three]

But they gave up their 1st and 3rd rounders. What are they offer sheeting with lol

Oh, I thought the picks were further down the line.

Dang. I wanted them to do it. I really did.

I'm enjoying the fact that the Oil gave essentially the same contract to Sekera that the Flames gave to Dougie Hamilton...

I'm sure when Steiggy picks Phil up at the airport he will have a backseat full of these to eat while sitting in traffic on the way back through the Ft. Pitt tunnel

Phil? Phil? Hey Phil? Is that you????

My initial reaction is this is a good trade. Two firsts (incl Kapanen) for Kessel sounds about right. The rest is irrelevant

There's a 2nd going back the other way too though. The net of the picks is the Leafs get a late 3rd and move up 30 spots.

I might have to come to Pittsburgh for that baby - That looks delicious.

Not a big kessel fan, he's awful in his own end, and wears out his welcome pretty fast it seems. Toronto is rebuilding, and they received a few descent young players, and maybe that pick turns out to be ok as well. Toronto has been trying to get rid of kessel, there didn't seem to be a bunch of takers, and no gm was willing to give up a bunch for that contract and the baggage he may bring with him. time will tell on this one.

Very "uppity" I hear...

I had forgotten that fries at Canadian Taco Bell is a thing

every level kessel has been at, his coaches hate him and his teammates simply put up with him.

It is pretty good.

If you ever get the chance, go to the Primanti's across the river from the stadiums in the Strip District. I think there is one actually in the airport, now. Maybe Phil won't have to wait for Steiggy to get there before he can sink his teeth in, lol

Going to be interesting to see how KEssel clicks in Pittsburgh, I'm thinking he should be good for 40 goals at least.

And still a -10

 

[DevilishWon]

My heart is dropping. This fucking sucks.

Also, why would the Leafs send a pick to PIT for the right to eat a contract? How does that work?

Be

MORONS!

It's still risky, but if I do have to eat at Taco Bell it's the only thing I get.

All jokes aside, there's really not much of a better situation for Phil to prove all that talk isn't justified. He just needs to reach out and take it.

Like it has bacon on it.


/sorry.

There's on in West Virginia along I-70 that we pass every trip to Baltimore. I have an urge to try it, but we always opt for something faster.
