Certainly hope there's no move in the works for him

I also wish the Rangers made a good effort to bring in another finnish player to help him along. Jagr struggled (relatively) early in his career but being linked up with Marty Straka was pivotal for him. 

cause Jagr couldnt speak english for like 5 years.  Kakka has no problems with english

certainly a factor as well. Im sure its more than that though and I can only imagine a finnish center would be very helpful to him.

probably wouldnt hurt but i dont think that's his problem.  He has to figure out himself in this league.

This upper body injury clearly stems from him carrying the team on his back this season.

That might be a good thing for him,  confidence builder 

[Kick save and a beauty]

"weak to even weaker" might be a more accurate diagnosis

It's ok this way he can get another pass on his non-production for this year. 

[Ozzy]

His "bridge" contract is gonna be the size of the bridge over the waterfall, in the Chinese restaurant!

Didn't see this mentioned here, was watching the knicks/Memphis game a little over a week ago, they showed Kakko and then put him up on the big screen he had a brace on his wrist.  Maybe more than that at this point but definitely part of the issue.

He’s had a wrist thing for the last two and a half years. The official name for it is called limp wrist shot and it makes it tough to score.

Ironic because usually when you don’t score, you have strong wrists 

[Valriera]

That’s good let him sit

[Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc]

This is actually good. Maybe they hurry up and trade for a RW asap now.

 

But atleast a month? Is that from now? What the hell happened with him during the break??

[Keirik]

anything on this guy besides him being feeble?
