Ron Kuipers' hockey
Woo hoo! Did you hear what Modano tweeted? I think it's a great move, myself, albeit a slight risk in that they are banking on this year being an anomaly, and that he will return to being a near ppg player or thereabouts. The short term makes it palatable. The Oilers will only get better imo if they keep their real NHL players, and stop trading them for magic beans at the deadline. The Oilers would have either lost him as a UFA for nothing, or gotten not much more than nothing at the trade deadline. So keeping him is good asset management. Before the kids arrived, Hemsky was the only reason to watch this team most nights. Classy move.
