What’s the point in “dumping Kampf’s bad contract” then signing Bleuger to a more rich deal? They’re very similar players. Kampf’s contract isn’t that bad and it’s not really an anchor to offload an additional asset to move

Kampf has 17 points in 72 games while Blueger has 26 points in 63 games so Blueger quite a bit better .
Blueger is good two way and will get more points and is good at face offs.

Kampf had 27 points last year & Blueger had 16. Kampf is 51.6% to Blueger’s 52.8%. Kampf also gets a lot more defensive starts. Sacrificing Robertson - who has finally come good after years of waiting - because you have an irrational hate on for a player is weak.

Look at the linemates Kampf plays with. He’s usually in a 4th line role and has played with the likes of Ryan Reaves all year.. can’t really judge that fairly when Bleuger has had Conor Garland who at least has some good offensive skill to his game

Why do we keep trading for a 7th Dman when we got Rafai lul

Were just wasting assets

Also 0 need to pay to move Timmins lul we can just waive him and no cost to have him with Marlies

And 0 need to undersell Jarnkrok

When Kampf was productive in TOR look who he played with

Mikheyev, Engvall, Lafferty, Kerfoot, etc.

Through most of the season his linemates were Gregor and Reaves. And then after Holmberg and Dewar

Dewar and Holmberg have improved things but still compared to the old linemates they are not similar caliber. Now Holmberg has been the best partner he's had with some amazing puck posession numbers between the two but thats really it


Meanwhile Blueger has had

Garland, Joshua, Mikheyev, Lafferty, and Hoglander as linemates

No wonder he's looked better imagine if Kampf had those guys on his line

no.

pens aren't paying for your cap dump lmao
