Why on earth? No unless it's for Abby's playoffs then absolutely. 

I’d much rather see a pro rated year of Kessel in our lineup over 4.75m of Charmin soft Mikheyev with term on our active nhl roster…

 

Terrible signing from day 1 by GM Alvin, overrated player due to his 1 shift of chasing a puck with Mcdavid!?!? he did fuck all to help the laffs why we ever wanted him is beyond me!

 

what is with the hate for Kessel by some….!?!? Free asset, low risk move by management to bring in someone they are familiar with.

 

Rather we try Kessel Vs. giving up stupid assets for Guentzel!!!

 

worst case he fizzles out and gets cut/buried in the ahl…best case scenario Kessel reaches 1000pts as a Canuck before seasons end and it’s a feel good story for Mr. Ironman.

Kessel is a non factor disdain for Mikheyev aside. Kessel doesn't fore check hit block shots or move the needle in any way offensively or defensively. He's basically fat old Kuzzmenko. Our top 6 deserves better and our bottom 6 really doesn't need to carry him.  If we wan't to bring him in thats fine maybe he can be a skills coach and fix our PP.

 

His on ice days are behind him.

14 goals and 36 points last season say otherwise.

Youre right those are surely top 6 numbers. Kessels playoff stats last year in his 4 appearances.

That's keeping in mind he played the full season and was in top game shape.

What a fuggin season we are having when a big complaint is that we might sign a guy for league minimum and he maybe might get a shot at the lineup if and when there are injuries especially in the playoffs :towel:

You're cherry picking at best on a cup team. Literal worst case scenario is he's a healthy scratch for a prorated 200-350k I think we can chill on the crying about this one 😂

Are you saying we aren't a cup contender? We don't need to carry a mascot.
