  1. He has his moments, and for $1M, a cheap way to shore up the bottom six. I like it

    Kinda surprised, I thought he was gone. But for that price, it’s not a bad deal.

    That’ll be the biggest signing the blues make today unfortunately

  4. SuperEarthPresident

    Seems like Kap is another one of those players that enjoys being in St Louis. 1m is a good deal, hopefully that means there’s still more to come.

  5. He showed plenty of reasons to sign him for that money and term. Easy to move if needed too.

  6. ProWrestlingPast

    I was very unexcited about him returning, but I can’t argue with the price tag.

  7. TahitiPark

    He’s not even a 3rd line caliber player. But they will play him there and he likely won’t contribute much besides being a 6th pk guy and on ice obstacle.

    Awful, give the roster spot to a player with potential instead of retreading one of the worst players from last season.

    He’ll outperform that 1MM and be a trade piece at the deadline.

    While certainly not a big sexy splash, Kappy on a 1×1 deal is a very good signing. He can’t seem to put up the numbers anymore, but I think he has worked hard on becoming a very good bottom six player. Has good wheels, is physical enough, and works hard in the D zone. At that price, and if some of the prospects develop enough, not a big deal to scratch him.

    It’s crazy cause you would probably take 6 kasperi kapanens at 1m if that meant your top 6 was dynamite. Good signing because of price. But it’s really only meaningful if we make that splash that we are completely capable of doing. But it looks like options are slipping away

    I’m not a huge fan of this on paper, but 1M for a good enough 4th line guy is fine.

  12. Connect_Way_7724

    Taking a roster spot away from younger guys.

  13. superballz977

    Terrible. At least we got rid of Hayes. Maybe we could get some trade value for him. If we have any luck he will play better this year.

    I figured we’d bring KK back on the cheap. He’s a good PKer, but that’s about it. So much speed wasted…
