thank you carolina for taking kotkieniemi off our hands

[@FalloutUrMum]

Thank you for wasting your pick on him lol

[@jflessard9850]

@@FalloutUrMum It was gived back by Don Waddell.

[@CxrsonYo]

@@FalloutUrMumIt wasn’t our GM’s best move to sign him at $5M, but eh, KK is good at times

[@WillE2424]

@@CxrsonYoya, when he’s picking up the teams order at Dunkin Donuts

[@stevestreet4402]

​@@CxrsonYo5 million for 24 points. So about a dozen good games a season and about 70 games where he is invisible, but hey Waddell really showed Bergevin how to make a stupid offer shet eh! To think he is only signed until 2030 so who knows he might get to 100 points by the end of that deal. Bergy should have taken Tkachuk

[@Johnamekin]

I cant wait to see him beside Dach next year

[@stockey]

Wawa is a stud.

[@AM-ko4pi]

He has the hockey IQ and physical ability to be a great player. I had a similar feeling the first time I saw PK and Suzuki.

[@joshs.9036]

Maybe the Hurricanes will offer sheet Josh Roy in the future with a signing bonus of 82$ as a "hint" for allowing the bust to be let go, sending him to the 'Canes. Loll I can't believe they offered the guy just short of 5 million$ until 2030. Kotkaniemi cashed out big from the pure ego of his GM.

[@albertvanular433]

I suspect it wasn't the GM but the owner of the Canes, Thomas Dundon, who has a huge ego. His nose was out of joint when Bergevin sent an offer sheet to Sebastian Aho a few years ago and the clown thought he would get even by telling his GM to send an offer sheet KK. Man did that move backfire. Bergevin did the right thing by letting Kotkaniemi go and taking the draft picks instead. Unfortunately, MB totally blew it by giving up the picks to get Christian Dvorak who has also been a bust for Montreal.

[@joshs.9036]

@@albertvanular433 You're absolutely right. I stand corrected. It was indeed the owner of the canes. Not the GM.

[@DERTHIX]

No, I wanted to stay far away for PLD.

[@DanTesta58]

Both player's mentioned are way overpaid, no question. Then again, there's Brendan Gallagher and his 20 points for 6.5 million cap hit.

[@judahnanas9772]

Bergy was in love with Gally with was underpaid at the moment of this ridicoulous offer. And then he slow down...

[@Chibipayne]

We were lucky with roy. He was less than a month away from being eligible for the following year's draft. It's the year we took him that he destroyed his league. Easily would have gone out in the 1st round, had he been a month younger.

[@ShaneLavigne-ke2rh]

I think Roy will put up around 60 to 65 a year When he is established?

[@ericcordeiro5279]

That's insanity lol

[@judahnanas9772]

50+ for sure

[@judahnanas9772]

Almost 5M$/YR to play on the 4th line... good job Canes!

[@zblip22]

Roy has the hockey IQ. This is why he will always be good.

[@qcmarcqc]

And the cherry on the top is that hes a french canadien

[@JudgeDrey]

Let's not all count our RHP's before they hatch. But hey, we can all be optimistic right?

[@paulalkenbrack6084]

I could see Roy winning a cup on the third line. Then, moving to the 2nd line.😮

[@Lanwarder]

To be fair, PLD would probably have much better offensive stats if he had been playing for Montreal during the rebuilding versus playing for the Kings, a team that also has Phillip Danault and Anze Kopitar playing as centermen. I'm not trying to take anything away from Joshua Roy though. The guy is doing a great job especially for such a young Québecois with offensive skills. Only 12 players from the 2021 draft have played more NHL games than Roy.

[@cartorius]

Josh WAH WAH is the mang!

[@LeSyd1984]

Ha! Spotted the grasshopper... ;)

[@cartorius]

@@LeSyd1984 yah knows! whaddayat!?

[@JaStargazer]

Would you do PLD vs Gallagher + 1st (Jets)?

[@LeSyd1984]

If that happens, both Blake and Bergevin will be cry... but for different reasons ;)

[@komirules]

Actually they would have to be the ones giving multiple draft picks for the habs to be taking on a longer snd more expensive contract.

[@judahnanas9772]

Gally as some heart... PLD, none so it a big NO THX

[@davitong]

Roy is a feel good name associated with the Habs because of Patrick Roy.

[@sf6117]

WOW I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT THANK YOU FOR ENLIGHTENING ME

[@alexandremartel516]

Not a knock on Roy, yes he's doing good yes he is going to improve and I can't wait to see this team in 4 years... BUT suggesting that Roy is producing WAY more than kotkaniemi or pld... kotkaniemi has 24 pts in 66 at the ppg that Roy has he would be at 28... 4 more points... yes he's 20 but it's not waaaay more... that's 1 more pts every 16 games... come on... but I'd take Roy before those 2 no questions asked

[@glennshaffer3111]

LOL

[@todddavis5433]

Bro everybody knows you're not giving up the chance to talk about KK. Stop with the cap

[@idarthcadeus]

Zero points tonight.

[@L9_Dark_King]

1st

[@robertl8481]

Kotkaniemi is even worse than that (he had a good start) but since then he has 3 goals and 6 assists in 45 games! An average of 0.2 per game and over 82 games would be 16.4 points. Monteal dodged a bullet not keeping that punk.

[@albertvanular433]

I agree they dodged a bullet but you sound totally ignorant when you call Kotkaniemi a 'punk' . He's not a great player but there's nothing wrong with KK as a person. Get a life

[@FalloutUrMum]

A lot of people give Carolina crap for having Kotkeniemi but the Hurricanes aren't the ones who wasted a first round pick on him, they're the ones who picked him up and got a strong power forward that fit well in his role on the team

[@vincentd.2284]

You are right. Carolina wasted a First round pick AND a third round pick! Do you not know how offer sheets work? 😂

[@AshleyBidensBathTime]

“Strong power forward “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jabronirigatoni4648]

Maybe you should delete your comment and save yourself the embarassment? 😂

[@jasonflyers878]

AHAHAH XD strong power forward

[@albertvanular433]

A strong power forward?? Haha Get real. Nothing against Kotkaniemi but honestly KK has been a bust, that's the only way to describe him

[@robertl8481]

Dubois only makes $500,000 more than Gallegher.

[@komirules]

Ok. But pretty sure PLD’s cap hit is 2 million more.

[@judahnanas9772]

Gally gives its 100% each night... Dubois? Hum.

[@martinlatour9311]

so glad kk isnt here anymore. never liked him
