The guy would've had 30 goals over 82 games this year, how does he kill the value? I'm confused.

Pat Kane signing a league minimum contract should be seen as a fireable offense by any team hoping to contend.

Pesce’s return is Tuch or Peterka +. Otherwise Don Mega hangs up the phone

Because hockey is a lot more than shooting shots. He generates little offense, plays very little defense, and isn’t a great skater. He would be a very expensive 4th liner / bench piece for us. No value
