Confirmed Trade: [CHI/WSH] Michal Kempny for 2018 3rd round pick

[TLEH]

Guarantee he plays really well. He’s good. Q just hated him from the jump and benched him for every little thing

 

[Agalloch]

wow 3rd round pick, good deal for Hawks.

Reminds me of what people said about

Pirri
Hayes (Jimmy)
Olsen
Morin
Clendening

How did it turn out for them? Q was such a fool who held back those wonderful talents

 

[Sam Spade]

Depth move, means nothing, unless he turns into Justin Schultz.

 

[Bubba88]

WSH will like him. He'll fit their team and will be good for depth.
I'd have kept him and think Q mishandled him big time.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

10 point player is worth a 3rd?

nobody said that about Olsen, Hayes and Clendening.

What's the deal with this guy. I obviously immediately went to stats and he's +13 on a struggling Hawks team. I know+/- isn't a great stat but it's worth noting

Q completely mis-used him. He carried Seabrook to a positive corsi so take that for what it is worth. Think of an ant carrying the Titanic up Mt Everest for a similar comparison.

Again, Justin Schultz had ten points when he was traded for a third rounder.

To a more fair Kempny has a lot more statistical positive results than those guys

But he plays a riskier pinching at some too poor choiced times and a lot game that resulted in breakaways but also helps his shots on net.

I don't love him too much since he never puts great shots on net or helps generate oppertunities for the Hawks to score instead too often when the puck came to him he would just get pucks toward the net when nobody is around it.

Does dumb things like pinch at worst times leaving his partner and G to fend for themselves too often

 

[Scott Malkinson]

Highly touted UFA out of Europe.

 

[BatVader]

Wow... a 3rd.

he is a defenseguy

If you think Q mishandled him, you ain't seen nothing yet.

Trotz will "make an example out of him" when ovie/kuz blindly throws the puck to the other team. Or when oshies doesn't score, again. Or when burakovsky misses the net on an open chance high n wide for another teams break. Or when holy gives up a softie. Or when Bowey and Orpik miss their assignments because they are possessed by the ghost of JEFF F****IN SCHULTZ and get embarrassed .

Yep and look at how well that turned out for the pens.. Although Kempny doesn't have the talent of Schultz on the offensive side. But its still better than the garbage the caps traded for in years past like Mike Weber, or Gleason or even paying a 1st for Shattenkirk who was a huge liability. This is a good depth move without giving up much.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

First round for Nick Holden incoming!

Yeah i was thinking about this. If Q mishandles him, I can't wait to see how incredibly well trotz'll handle him

 

[Filthy Dangles]

a guy who gets overrated by the corgis and his skating ability.

surprised he fetched a 3rd

[Habs 4 Life]

It's a buyer market alright!!!!

[Filthy Dangles]

so what's the condition that determines whether it's their 3rd or Toronto's 3rd?
