Kunitz plays in 1000th game

[The Grim Reaper]

Is this Mrs. Kunitz?

Try harder, cupcake.

 

[TNT87]

Congrats to him.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Nice milestone

 

[SugarSherm]

Congrats to him!! Was one of my favorite Ducks back in the day and was rooting for his success after he left.

 

[Lyons71]

Crazy how he started off being waivered by both the ducks and Atlanta. Then he ends up on the top line with Selanne for the cup win. Then ends up playing with Sid. Never give up.

Probably one of the best legal hits I've ever seen:

 

[heysmilinstrange]

I was so annoyed with his play during his last couple of years as a Penguin, and then he scored this goal and all was forgiven:

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Oh no, some bad hits you say. My my, this cannot stand.

What's the point of this crap? I was asked a question and I answered it. You coming in with your smartass/dumbass routine adds nothing to the discussion.

Ryan Whitney?

What's the backstory here?

 

[LuGBuG]

What's the backstory here?

On Spittin Chiclets podcast he jokes around how he hates Chris Kunitz because he was traded for him at the deadline and then Pittsburgh won the cup.

I'm sure he's half joking/half serious lol.

It ended up being a great thing for Pitt because Whitney had a nasty ankle problem that kept recurring. Anaheim got damaged goods
Whitney was very good out of the gate, but once that injury hit he was never the same guy

Any better undrafted player with more career achievements?

Wayne Gretzky

I could be wrong but he made a really nice play on the 1st goal of that game as well. Not sure if he scored it or assisted, but a nice play nonetheless.

edit: he scored the first goal, and actually made a good play with a screen on the second goal before scoring the OT winner. Maybe his best game as a Penguin.

 

[Star Ocean]

undrafted beauty

Sidney crosby

 

[Terry Yake]

pretty cool how he made it to 1000 games as an undrafted FA

huge part of that 07 ducks team playing on the top line with mcdonald and selanne

 

[Human]

HoF?

 

[I Hate Philadelphia]

I remember seeing him in a short stint with the 05-06 AHL Portland Pirates dream team. Perry, Getzlaf, Bobby Ryan, Penner, Parenteau, Konopka, Shane O'Brien, Trevor Gillies (lol). That was a fun year.

 

[tony d]

Congrats to him, guy's a good hand. 1000 games is a good accomplishment.

 

[JoVel]

HoF?

How many 600 point forwards are there in the HoF?

 

[Hatfield]

Any better undrafted player with more career achievements?

Unless we're just talking about Cups: Adam Oates, Peter Stastny, Dino Ciccarelli, Joe Mullen, Martin St. Louis, Borje Salming, Ed Belfour, Sergei Bobrovsky...

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

HoF?

He'll go in right next to Julien Edelman.

 

[Goose]

Rich Man’s Darcy Tucker

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

Classy.

 

[ronduguayshair]

Penguin fans who dump on Kunitz really are something else. Probably should be ignored.
