I’m surprised they didn’t see Evander Kane there. He must spend a lot of time in Vegas, with his reward points at one of the casinos he had enough points for rooms for all his teammates after their season ended.

You can't play defense against a guy like Kessel; he's more elusive than a greasy wiener.
That's why you don't trade a guy like Kessel. Also he's pretty funny, the greatest source of fan humor since Steve McKenna. You can't put a price tag on that.

Would any of us enjoy being Penguins fans as much without Phil Kessel and all of the awesome media-spawned baggage he left behind in Toronto and Boston, before he won two Cups (and hopefully counting) with us ? I don't think so. The wiener man stays.

He shouldn’t have fun and should sit st home at all times. At least Kane isn’t a friggin robot like most players.

What a brat....

Robots need love too. They want to be loved by you.

I can't take credit for that masterpiece. I stole it from "Steel City Fan."

Sometimes I can be lazy, too.

I would like to confirm that Phil confirmed that HCMS confirmed that GMJR confirmed that Kessel will probably stay in Pittsburgh...

 

[PensPlz]

Oh man. If that response don't reek of confidence then I don't know what does.

Definitely not that room of Poker players.

I never understood that argument when people defend guys like Kane and Ovechkin. Fun is one thing, being an obnoxious punk is another.

I mean, I wish the rubenesque goal scoring bastard showed more excitement but I get him, I don't blame him for his gripes.

Evander Kane is an idiot, an idiot I wanted on this team, but never at that cap hit. Kane needs to be surrounded by a ton of vets and the Sharks are that team.

Players are robots because in hockey, people remember shit you say and use it as motivation, more than any other sport. Growing up playing it, if we ever heard a team or player say "oh that team is a cake walk..." we'd be discussing it in our dressing room and firing ourselves up and the other team would be like whoa what the hell, these guys are coming at us with everything they got.

NHL players don't have short memories, they hold grudges. I've talked to enough players that sound like robots during interviews but when they are candid and just talking to you like a normal dude talking to another dude, they're as boring as we are. Which is, wait for it....NORMAL.
