And he might be better than either we gave up! https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=160281 Best player in the trade, late bloomer, 2nd NHL season, 44 point pace at C. This is a move. 1 Quote
nfreeman Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 He's 24 and turns 25 in July. 5'11", 175 lbs. He played 2 years in the OHL (Sudbury, eh?) at ages 17 and 18, then played professionally in Germany for 4 years, then 1 year with the Blackhawks (37 pts in 82 games -- not bad for a rookie) and then 27 pts in 50 games this year with Pittsburgh. He also played for Germany 3 times in the World Juniors and for them in the 2018 Olympics. I wonder if RK knows him? Seems like a nice pickup for 2 UFAs with little value. Quote

Where does he fit now? 24 yr old center with 2 years of NHL experience. He's an RFA this year. Has played all the games the last 2 years in the NHL, except for recently where he was DTD with an injury. Quote
sabills Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 Someone who knows more than me, is Kahun actually a center? Quote
Randall Flagg Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 I'd give Botts an A for the day if he stopped right here 3 Quote

Has to know him and his game. Quote

DarthEbriate Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 Right now (pending another deal) Vesey - Kahun - MoJo as the 2nd line, with Skinner - Lazar - Frolik as the 3rd. So, he's our 2C at this instant? Quote
dudacek Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 Looks like a huge upgrade on ERod. And this is the type of low-profile deadline deal that sometimes looks like an enormous win in a few seasons. Simmonds isn't as good as Sheary, but he fills a need better. I'm thumbs up so far. (To be honest, Sheary was my least favourite Sabre, and Erod was probably number two) 3 Quote
LGR4GM Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Posted February 24, 2020 We also just cleared another couple million in cap from this team. 3 Quote

LGR4GM Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Posted February 24, 2020 Sorry we sent out 5million and brought back only 925k 3 minutes ago, WildCard said: For this offseason, or for the next 20m? i.e. Sheary and Rodrigues were both gone, and Simmonds is a UFA, no?

Cascade Youth Posted February 24, 2020 Report Posted February 24, 2020 Sheary finally finished. Amirite? Quote

LGR4GM Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Posted February 24, 2020 Unsure of Kahun being an actual center at this point. 3 minutes ago, dudacek said: Kahun jumps to $3.7 though with his bonuses Ah, okay so that's where that 2mil I saw comes from. Cool, thank you. Quote
