finally!!!

 

[Laser Rayzor]

Finally!

Was really really expecting KH to send Marchy down, a bit of faith has been restored.

Good for you Kenny.

Hopefully someone claims him to get whats left of his contract off the books, and free up a spot for Oullet/Jensen/Sproul next time there's an injury

 

[PullHard]

Ken Holland you're blowing my mind

I dont even care so much about the salary, I just don't want to be consistently scared to come on this forum and see the dreaded "Recalled: Jakub Kindl" thread.

 

[hyduK]

KH is on a roll though.

2015: Cleary waived
2016: Kindl waived
2017: Andersson waived????

Cementing his legacy.

 

[chances14]

nobody is going to claim kindl

Boat anchor contracts coming to bite Holland in ass? Who knew.

 

[Laser Rayzor]

They can't assume more salary

That's not entirely true, I mean we're keeping 1.45M of Kindl's salary on the books after waiving him anyways so we could have taken back at most that much (maybe more) and gotten a pick out the deal.

Yeah, but at least it shows that teams are prepared to take Kindl on

Yay, another lost asset. I'd rather have him in the AHL than have another team claim him for nothing.

KH school of asset management: Is his name Dan Cleary? No? Okay let the other teams have him.

You're joking right? Kindl's a 7th defenseman with a $2.4M contract. Hardly an asset.

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

Way to go Kenny!

Excellent it is about damn time

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

In collecting my thoughts, this could be a very good thing for Kindl. He could get claimed and become useful for another team (the old change of scenery boost), or, maybe he goes down to GR with Nelson and turns it around. Either way I doubt his future is in a wings jersey but I hope he can get it together and become an NHL Dman.

Yeah, it's not like there was literally a post that said other teams were willing to trade a draft pick for him, if Detroit took salary back.

Yeah, depends on the player. It would've been nice to trade Kindl for a player making $1.4M or less and pick up a 7th, even if that player is ****.

 

[Go Wings]

That doesnt make him an asset. We will trade your garbage for ours and we'll throw in a draft pick doesnt scream asset to me.

 

[Sami]

**** Yes!

 

[Frk It]

Thank you Holland. This was the right move. Congrats Marchenko.

 

[Henkka]

So now we can kind of count Marchenko as 2.1M player (his 670k deal + Kindl 1.45M penalty)

Marchenko is cheaper and better than Kindl as non-waived.

Is Kindl still the best Wings defenceman in HERO charts?
