He hasn't been very good this year, but has a ton of talent. Definite upgrade for Pitt from Brasshole.

FLA has 12m in space and this clears another 6. Sheahan and Brasshole are UFA at the end of the year.
Honestly from a Florida perspective this deal is much better. The Penguins in typical fashion give away draft picks like Oprah gives away cars. Then the player swap probably is a wash in current talent perspective but the Penguins got younger with the better potential/upside but they could be in the same situation as they were with Brassard if Bjugstad doesn't "fit" either.

Don't imagine either guy is staying in Florida, either.

Kendall's thoughts on the past week...


This situation amuses the shit out of me, given the current social climate.

We live in the land of #MeToo, where everything is sexist and such.

Kendall comes out and says, "Guys, it's not a big deal."

The White Knights still come out in droves to "protect" her from the predatory Pierre...essentially treating her like a helpless dainty flower because she's a female..

Do you expect her to come out and say "yeah, he's a sexist pig"?

People got pissed off because he acted like a shit. We'd be equally pissed if he had said things like that to PK Subban, Scott Gomez, or Richard Park. It wouldn't be because we think they're helpless because they're black/Hispanic/Asian, it'd be because he acted like a shit.

At first I didn't agree, after all someone who goes by the handle Duke of Douchington is not someone I would normally think had the best thoughts on #MeToo, but I was won over at the end of your post by your use of bolding and italicizing.

Wait ... Kendall is a girl's name?!???

I just never knew. I thought Kendall was a junior player and Pierre was a pedo to be honest.

Saw the Panther/Penguin trade earlier. Interesting move. I expect Florida to turn around and kick the tires on trading for Bobrovsky.

Can anybody tell me why a game that ends 1-0 without anybody getting credit for a goal scored makes any sense?

Maybe it's because it's not hockey that they're doing, but a skills competition/coin flip?!?

Because 30 years ago a penalty shot was bigger better TV then Gary Bettman. Bergman couldn't handle it and had to find a way to make penalty shots ho hum.

Also fuck Ron Hextall

Katy Perry makes his season debut in Winnipeg. Those fans better let him hear it.

The Winnipeg anthem singers were interesting.
