He was awful in Boston and my team overpaid for this guy. Oh well, at least it is not my $$

The only saving grace could be that there is much less pressure in Carolina. I hope he returns to his Toronto form but was not impressed with his stay in Boston. Besides the Finals he was bad and did not help the powerplay there at all.

I guess I am the only one who needs a throw up pan and no one cares :uh:

I guess if he was a giveaway machine on the Avs you would all weigh in :lol:

I like Kaberle but he's not my favorite. I'm pretty well over offensive defensemen. That shit with the Avs wore me out. I'm still sick over the Avs re-signing Hunwick...

I used to really like kaberle but he has SUCKED SOO BAD for a while now. I was worried we were going to get him. He reminds me of hunwick only not as bad. SR is right, be happy you don't have hunwick on your team.

What is sad is the Canes already have their Kaberle in Joni Pitkanen. He is younger then Kaberle and better in his own end. I hope I am wrong on Kaberle and he does well. We shall see.

He's awful Med. I can't believe Carolina paid him something like 12 ml for three years. I'm also pissed what the Bruins gave up to get him from Toronto.

But I'm glad Boston got Corvo from Carolina as a salary dump so they could afford Kaberle. :laugh:

BTW, Kaberle has to be the weakest player in the NHL. No upper body strength at all.

Kaberle has been in the top 10 scoring for defenseman like 7 out of the last 8 seasons. He is one of the best in the league at making the outlet pass (first pass out of the defensive zone).

Boston lost Joe Colbourne who is a big 6'5 center and is really about 2-3 years away from being a good player and 3rd or 4th liner. He is also a former first rounder 18th overall. Also lost was Bostons' First rounder this season (S. Percy) traded up from 30 to 25, and 1 second round pick for next season (Conditional if Boston made the Cup Finals).

The Boston/Kaberle trade Boston won hands down. Boston lost no roster players, and starters who will play right now. Toronto hasn't made the playoffs since 2003, and they gave up what some believe the arguably the best player Toronto had on an already talentless roster.

I think Carolina gets themselves a player who will rack up 50 points, feeding Eric Staal, one timers on the power play. I would consider drafting Kaberle in my fantasy drafts this season knowing he and Staal will be on the Power Play.

But what about defensive play? A defenseman isn't shit if they can't back it up in their own end.

I will be happy if that happens. He is bad in his own zone. I would take mediocre in his zone at least.

Glad the Canes dumped this bum. The Habs can have him. :lol:

26 pts in 60 games with 2 goals for $4MM per year(about) no thank you. He also sucks in his own end.

Just read that Cam Ward is out for a while with an "unspecified lower body injury"

I hope it is not that long, not that they are making the playoffs anyways.
