The Great Michal Kempny Debate (& other ex-Hawks) Volume 4

[LordKOTL]

Ward's contract doesn't look bad when viewed in tandem with the one given to Manning.

They're both bad.

[JaegerDice]

Fair deal for a 3C.

Unfortunately they'll be playing him as a 1C by midway through the season.

 

[BobbyJet]

And Kruger is back in Chicago for not much cheaper ... unbelievable.

[EmeticDonut]

I don't see the point about crying about Krüger. He's back for a year only.
(but knowing Bowman, he's going to re-sign him for 5-years @ $4M and a NMC after the season.)

Someone please take Stanley's phone away before he see's that Troy is available

Q already texted Stan begging for him to sign Troy.

Q "We MUST sign Troy asap"

Stan "New number who dis"

Brouwer carved out a really nice NHL career for himself but this should be the end of the NHL line for him or at least getting close.

I totally forgot the Hawks for a 1st round pick for him...

A steal

Its easy to forget when Stanley then gave away the player selected with that 1st round pick

Stanley essentially put $5 into a lotto machine and won top prize on game he selected and then gave ticket away for a penny

You know saying Weiss/Fleischmann was even the equivalent of a penny is stretching it. He handed his ticket away to someone who says he would come back with magic beans only to never come back

That is a terrible analogy. Drugs are bad.

Stanley is bad

You are overvaluing PD. He is a fine 3rd line center but that is it. Remember when he was traded he was a offensive blackhole who had like 1 goal and 4 assists in 30 games (I am just guessing on the stats so they are not exact). The trade was bad but no where close to the franchise altering trade you make it out to be.

The trade turned out to be bad, 100%. TF fizzled after a solid start and Q refused to use Weise and played Mashiter instead but it has nothing to do with the great return he got for TB.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Weise was absolutely awful when he played so stop putting it on Q

He has been a disaster in Philly and is despised by almost every fan

Weise is classic case of a mediocre talent playing bigger role on a offensively talentless team and having stats inflated

He Jeff Hamilton'd production in Montreal being used as a top 6 and PP player often at times

What he has done in Philly has nothing to do with this but his production as a 4th line player is not far off PD's production as a 1st line player...

So you are saying that Mashiter should have played over him?

PD is basically Jeff Hamilton'ing in MTL as well.

Thank you for showcasing how the loss of PD means nothing basically.

 

[JaegerDice]

Is there any doubt Q would play Brouwer in the top 6?

Like literally any at all?

No doubt.

Yes. But only because Kunitz is already slotted there

 

[RayP]

Yes. But only because Kunitz is already slotted there

I get irrationally annoyed every time I’m reminded Kunitz is on our team.

 

[JaegerDice]

Yes. But only because Kunitz is already slotted there

Oh, I have no problem imagining

Saad-Toews-TB
CK-Schmaltz-Kane

You must open your mind to the full potential of Quenneville's roster management idiocy.

 

[x Tame Impala]

I'm numb to the pain at this point. It's been 3 (soon to be 4) years of not watching elite Hawks playoff hockey. Couldnt care less about Kunitz when the stakes are as low as they are

 

[BK]

If Kunitz can handle the D zone draws and still score 10-15 goals he will be fine and will not have a negative impact. Lets stop acting like he is John Scott.

I think kampf is the only regularly played forward I could say played no games slotted in the top 6 last season.
