Shattenkirk never wanted be here. That's exactly why the Girardi rumors came up a few days back
Plan B. That's Girardi's nickname now;
Plan G. I can dig it.

I wouldn't even mind the signing if we all didn't JUST KNOW we're going to have a rookie sitting in the pressbox, watching Kunitz contribute little to nothing. I don't mind spending money on him, especially if we weren't a realistic destination for some of the guys I'd rather have (Markov, Marleau). Doesn't hurt to spend the money somewhere. I just feel like my head's going to explode when Adam Erne's serving popcorn for the sake of this contract.

I always hated him but he's always struck me as a guy you love to have on your team but hate when your team plays against him. He's going to be 38 soon though. Don't know how much he has left in the tank.Pens fan point of view:
Kunitz is still a serviceable bottom 6 player that knows how to come up big in big games. Not only did he score the game winner against Ottawa to send the Pens to the Final, he played a huge part in the Cup winning goal along with scoring 6 points in the Final.
He'll frustrate you some nights, but most players do. It's not his fault he was asked to play a position in Pittsburgh (top 6) a lot of nights that he just isn't able to play anymore. That was mostly because of injuries and we had no other/better options.
Used correctly, this will be a guy you will be glad is on your team. Good luck to him going forward.

We're really looking forward to turning another page to our career and we believe that the Lightning have an unbelievable chance to win a Stanley Cup, and that's the reason why we came here.
He was looking for a house for his family so they could get settled in and the kids could be in school, I believe.
I love Chris Kunitz the guy. Seems like a great human being and I wish him the best. He is not a top 6 option anymore and you will be frustrated with him if the coach puts him up there. He is a fine 4th liner at this point, but if you want offense out of your third line.... don't put him there either.
