Chuck Kobasew - Waiver countdown, still nothing

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Kobasew once scored 21g and 42p for the Bruins. And it wasn't in a beer league.

Just let that sink in.

 

[Fire Shero*]

That's because it's all the Pens can afford. And since their forward prospect pool is non-existent, it's not going to change anytime soon.

And who is at fault for all of these problems? Shero

We have no forward prospects because of him.

We can't afford others because Shero paid Dupuis, Scuds and Adams around $8 million. Trade Orpik and you have almost $12 in cap space

Maybe Kobasew got left behind at the airport tonight when they flew out to Dallas? *crosses fingers*

No, you sneak him into Mexico and leave him there. If Bylsma tries to rescue him you solve two problems.

 

[Valarukar]

Man, I saw that title and thought he had been put on waivers. What a let down haha.

 

[Fire Shero*]

I didn't think he'd last this long. He's not playing well, but continues to play with Sid.
It's complete nonsense and unacceptable. He looked terrible in every game. I swear, sometimes all you need is a pulse to play for the penguins.

Kobasew has zero points in his last 24 games in PIT. ZERO, NULL, NOTHING, NONE!! D´Agostini is bad but he´s playing at least average hockey in Buffalo now. I´m not advocating D´Ag, he deserved to be waived here, I´m just saying that Kobasew is even worse hockey player than D´Agostini.

Ok he's producing some points on an awful buffalo team that's giving him 15+ minutes a night. As a Penguin he was more of a problem than a solution to anything positive. Kobasew while not being even good, is not D'agostini bad. In the games Dags played for us he was the worst penguin on the ice.

Kobasew finally scratched tonight ??? Dear god, was he AWFUUULL. Hopefully we won´t see him in Pens uniform again. Please god, please!! Just put him on the waivers already and I have a better sleep then!!

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Stop getting my hopes up by bumping this.

Yay for Kobasew getting scratched.

Actually, what are we still waiting for with Kobasew? Guy is done in NHL, clearly. I would be surprised to see him play a NHL game, ever again. Just put him on the waivers, PLEASE.. He won´t be claimed, then he can play for WBS with Kostopoulos or he can call it a day(career) already.

Or is he that good of a Sid´s buddy that he´s useful even without playing? What´s the purpose of still having Kobasew on the roster?

 

[Fire Shero*]

Yay he was scratched. We are making baby steps.

Maybe Shero is keeping Kobasew to use in a blockbuster trade.

Even for a risk adverse, conservative guy like Shero, keeping Kobasew around is shocking.

But I guess they figured well he looked terrible on every line, we should try him with Crosby! Because if you can't hang with Adams and Pyatt, you will certainly play well with Crosby.

Incompetence at its finest

Did Kobasew even make the trip to LA and Phoenix? I thought everyone was going to play in those two games, he didn't.

FAT (Freely Available Talent) has no value in a trade. He is a replacement player. Any team can sign a player of his value for nothing.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

He's probably already been waived and claimed for days and nobody in the Pittsburgh media reported it. Didn't that kinda happen with Dags?

It happened to Jeffrey for sure.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Ah -- that's what I was thinking of. Thank you!

 

[Will Hunting]

Well, I was wrong when I thought he´s done in NHL. He´s playing on our 3rd line tonight. Wouldn´t be surprised to see him alongside Sid on some shifts. I´m out of my words, guys.....

I love the Pens. I love them to death.. But hell, what a joke of an organization we are when it comes to things like this. Unbelievable.

 

[Fire Shero*]

Who is the jagoff that claimed he was scratch?

You tease

 

[Ogrezilla]

You tease

he was scratched for the games you missed, I swear!

 

[Fire Shero*]

Haha way to get my hopes up. He's back in there sucking at hockey and in life general.

How long will it take till Shero realizes that Kobasew is the worst player in the league?? Just waive him It´s embarrassing. He´s on the 3rd line, PK and on the 2nd PP unit instead. Wow. I don´t know who I hate more.. Kobasew? Bylsma? Shero?
