You would think so,but apparently most other Avs fans I've talked to disagree


As you are specifically talking to avs, I suspect it's a love of his dad. If kaberle had a kid who was a defenseman I'd probably be biased to like him as a Leafs fan

Good signing. Can't think of how many times in mock teams I've had NJ signing him.

I always feel sorry for Cal in this respect. He has like size 14 skates or something crazy like that. Have to think that hindered his skating development.


I do it's he's just a retched skater or he'd be really good his positioning is good as is his play reading just anyone who's a slightly better than Maroon can just walk around him

What made you want Foote? What has he done?


Did you just say that to an Aves fan!? 🤣

I think it’s less of the Avs fans wanting a nepo baby and more of the fact that he’s one of the more recognizable depth defensemen that was available on the market. The Avs basically need someone to be 6/7D with Jack Johnson, play PK, and otherwise be super sheltered. Foote and Caleb Jones both could do that quite well.

I was really hoping he got signed by Leafs (or PTO) to help with RD depth, great signing by NJD IMO

I loved Kaberle. He was my favourite player when I was a little kid.
CD282 and BCAPP liked this.

In order to play for the Devils, does he have to be cloven?
