      As a Kraken fan, I'm pretty excited. This move reminds me of the Tolvanen pickup. I'll miss Borgy, though-he's a solid, gritty defensive defenseman. As skilled as our backline is, there aren't many players like him.

    As a very disheartened Rangers fan, Chris Drury needs to be removed from his position immediately. I’ve never seen a more lackluster, boneheaded job of managing and leading from anyone in a front office position ever. It started in the summer with the offloading of Barclay Goodrow, a solidified team leader, for nothing. All while running your captain through the mud with (way too public) trade talks. But, we got off to a hot start, great. Then, the team has a bad week of hockey (as every team will throughout the course of a season) and he sends out a memo with the message to the players being “Play well or I’m going to trade you.” And then he ships off our captain by essentially blackmailing him into waiving his trade clause and accepting a trade. In all his infinite wisdom, he thinks that decision is going to somehow not hurt or fracture the locker room. Now it feels like we’re a rebuilding team, because we have an incompetent leader at the helm.
    This team won the Presidents Trophy last year. Went to the Eastern Conference Final two out of the last three years. A bad week of hockey and the “change of direction” Chris Drury wants is to ship off, or at least threaten to ship off, all the guys who created our consistent success over the past four years. I can’t, with a good conscience, hold the players responsible for how they’ve been playing the past month. It’s got to be difficult to perform and do your job when you’re constantly looking over your shoulder to see if you’re getting traded or not. What an embarrassment of a GM he is.
    It’s at the point where I want to see guys get traded, just so they can get out of the most unhealthy organization in the league right now and get a fresh start. I’m happy Kaapo is going to have a chance to prove his skills elsewhere, because he deserves the opportunity. As for Will Borgen, he now has my undying support, but welcome to the shit show buddy.

    Can we trade James Dolan and Chris Drury to the moon for a bag of moon pucks? Congrats to Kaapo Kakko for getting a way from a club that tries desperately to turn its prospects into busts. I hope he finds his game on a team that will treat him right, because I think he’s way underrated and he deserves better than what he’s gotten from my team.

    Frankly im disgusted by Drury and the NYR organization. Disaster developing by the Rangers, ruined his early career and when he called out the teams/Drury's BS he was traded. Also, this wont do anything to solve the shit show that is the NYR. The vets are useless, dont care, dont score, and dont show up. Need a retool and get rid of the useless vets...Kakko was the least of our concerns..

    I'm enjoying watching the Rangers melt down. As perplexing as the Capitals being in 1st place. Didn't see that one coming. And half the division is playing so poorly the Penguins might actually be able to sneak into the playoffs after such a horrendous start. Then there is Nashville. What a strange season so far.

    Rangers are my second favorite team. I’ve defended Drury the last few years; however, the way he and the rest of the staff have handled this situation has just been wrong in my opinion. I can’t imagine any player in that locker room is thrilled to be there let alone play games

    Kakko is the same kind of mid the Kraken are used to, but he's a lot younger than some of their other mid. He'll be a great forechecker with Wright or maybe add some more defense on Stephenson's wing

    NYR and Preds fistbumping on trading their Finns to the Kraken, and (probably) regretting it later. We'll miss Belligerent Bill's personality (And Beniers will miss his roommate), but we're welcoming Kakko to a new chapter! Him and Tolvanen will probably be fast friends.
