It looked like if there was a player to get moved at the trade deadline it could be Michal Kempny since he never really could get out of Joel Quenneville‘s dog house. Even when he did see action he never seemed unleashed.
As stated in earlier posts yesterday, Stan Bowman doesn’t like to wait until the last second to make a move. He always likes firing the first shot of the trade deadline. Even when he got Antoine Vermette a few years ago it was nowhere near the trade deadline.
Getting a conditional third round pick is alright I guess, the thing is Stan Bowman’s drafting hasn’t been that great so getting more picks is better than fewer ones since he struggles to find the target on talent.
