  2. Something we all knew was going to happen, going to miss his grit/toughness & willingness to stand up for his teammates and fight. His talent & skill level are under appreciated imo. Can score & make plays out of nothing by just going to the hard areas like the corners & front of the net. Happy for him that he finally gets to go home to play in front of his family, friends and fans there. Just wish it was a straight across trade for Demko Thatcher. Oh well I know that it was a necessary cap dump so it will work out good for both. Good luck Kaner except when playing against the Oilers of course. Sure is going to be interesting now that the Oilers have to play against him so often. They better sign Frederics. Just saying.

  11. Cap move to resign Bouch, get a goalie, help to sign Fredrick and get a more $$$ for a top 6 winger if possible. Next up to trade is Arvidson… Thanks to Kaner for all he did while here though
