    I am a diehard Habs fan BUT was never a Bergevin fan BUT Bergy deserves a medal for letting KK slide to the Canes in that offer sheet fiasco!!!!
    Canes got EXACTLY WHAT THEY DESERVED for trying to "stick it" to the Habs for offer sheeting Aho!!! Despite it all...KK will laugh all the way to the bank. If he doesn't turn his game around, he'll probably get bought out and go back to Finland with a truckload of $$$ and play at home and NEVER lose a minute of sleep over this whole mess. He and Nail Yakapov will start a support group...😂

    Our future on D is set with Guhle Barron, Xhekaj Mailloux, and Hutson Reinbacher making up our core. The S.S. Caulfield line is anchored well and needs no change with Captain Suzuki at the helm. Our 4th line is set with Beck, Evans, and Armia providing a strong D that can score so we are set on 4th and first lines. So we need some influx of talent for the 2nd and 3rd lines. Dach, Newhook, Mesar, Roy, Kapinen, needs Lindstrom, Iserman, or Iginla. So we need picks to trade for them. We don't need gold like Cellabrini plus the cost is way too high. There is much talent in the first round so trade for picks and move up. Lotsa' Silver is what we need we already have buillion on D. Raise Dem sails and watch dem bergs.

    It might be an attitude problem. When he was with Montreal, he had so many players around him who were "go getters". Like Perry and Ghal and Cole Suzuki etc etc. They are driven players. So obviously he had an ego going to Carolina. If the players on Carolina are not surrounding him with that go get attitude ask what's going on in the locker room. KK is a good Playoff bound player but at over 4 million is it worth it?

I figure that with a young team full of talent and with our coaching staff, it would probably help him develop some qualities that we didn't know he had. It would be called the "KOTKANIEMI PROJECT". But, Buyers Beware. He does have an attitude, and with a long term contract worth M of $, I'm not sure if he would be willing to go through the drill of becoming a good hockey player.

    Ok this is going to be a long one. KKs demise is a mix of Montreal mismanagement of his training program and his impatience. In Montreal he was overrated and needed better training. Since he never got that, KK was simply an underwhelming player. So when Carolina did their move to obtain him. It was actually a blessing for Montreal and could have been a blessing for KK. But Carolina screwed it up by offering him a contract that was way to rich for a player of his caliber. He was simply never able to perform in that expensive caliber. And now his world is coming to a crash. KK is simply a victim of poor management. What goes around, comes around.
