that bottom 6 and bottom pairing is questionable at best. Confused why they didnt try to get a 3c

Why do you have Kapanen on the Taxi Squad? Spend a first plus on him and place him on waivers? He would never clear

Has Kapanen already disappointed that much? I figured he'd at least get a shot with Crosby or Malkin. Figured he'd be in the bottom 6 by midseason or so but this is fast.
