Welcome back MPS.

Two-way fwd transition hopefully goes smooth for him.

Good deal for both teams, I like it a bit more for paul though.

Good deal all around.

remember when MSP was supposed to be good?

and people were jumping off buildings in downtown Toronto because we picked kadri over him?

I believe MSP is still a good player. I'm still glad we picked Kadri over him. I am also personally disappointed with the kind of progression MSP ended up with, but similar goes for Kadri which wasn't anything to write home about. I think both players will start picking up this season and have decently successful careers for time to come. MSP's sheer size difference hopefully can enable him to be a very good two way forward and contribute H2H in this league!

I still laugh at fans who are bothered by Kadri's progression. He's right on track, looks fantastic. Unrealistic expectations on ANY first round pick is way way too common.

Agreed. Kadri is still only 22 ... not every first round pick is going to be Sidney Crosby at 18.

Yeah, especially when its a player who was noted as a guy who will take a while to develop. I do think that Kadri being 22 he's expected to make the jump at this point in his career, which he's doing.
