Comments
Will Borgen is a -13 third-pair defenseman who is four years older and at the end of his contract.
Kakko has amazing upside and the reward is greater than the risk of two middle-to-late round draft picks.
Seattle down.
The only reason you think Kakko has amazing upside is his draft position but heβs got 330 games in the NHL that say otherwise π€·π»ββοΈ
Kraken got an amazing player.
Good for Kakko, NY will miss our sweet prince.
(No disrespect to Kaapo Kakko intended. I'm sure he's a wonderful man, but dammit Janet.)
Who do you think will replace Borgen in D?
(And Beniers actually, you know, doing something. Dude has been invisible all season)
Help me understand - whatβs he doing well? (No snark, I genuinely want to understand)
