Description
Geo- everyone says he sucks and no fan base seems to have interest. Not getting QO. Could be him, or Wedgewood, or anyone else really(doesn’t matter)

Kessel- made his money, doesn’t care about anything other than chasing a potential cup and his sister is in NY. Anything is possible

Kakko- who on earth is giving a OS to a healthy scratched bust as per every other fan base. No chance there is an OS on him. Also this contract is appealing enough for him to pass on any OS. Could probably add term too 4-5 years

Saving cap space for the TDL to add a potential 2C/3C type

...I'm from another fan base and don't think Kakko is a bust...Scratching him was one of the very few bogeys Gallant had in the playoffs, IMO.

Ya I agree. But many on here are riding that bust train into the sunset. There must be more to the scratch.

I wouldn't get too worked up. CapFriendly is all about trading/OS'ing players, then when someone says "Yiiiiikes", you turn around and tell them all of the players flaws, while simultaneously putting them as your top pairing dman/top 6 forward/#1 goalie.

Is Kakko what he was billed to be? Probably not. IMO, a big part of the role that he's been forced to play in by Turk/Quinn. Does that help his development long term? Hard to say...but Turk is hard to please.

Biggest question I have about Kakko is "WHY THE F DON'T YOU SHOOT MORE?!?!!". Numbers all point towards a breakout, he just doesn't seem to shoot.

If he had taken a few parsecs to think about it, it would be Obi Wan themed instead (since it's once again an Obi Wan day!!!!), but I'll take it...
