Who would have thought in the span of a month the Malkin-ator would die and his biggest antagonist would no longer be a Flyer.

Umberger also plays a ton on PK, which could be a factor

They just dumped their biggest offender, so it is a win win.

on the flip, you probably also lost the best or 2nd best PP threat. one thing he could do well is rifle a one timer from the left circle

Giroux, Voracek, Simmonds, Kimmo and ??? should be fine. Maybe Schenn or Coots.

hartnell waived his nmc to go there so i would assume he wanted out. i don't mind moving him, but umberger is cooked. columbus probably would've bought him out if they couldn't move him. opens up a spot on giroux's wing so we'll see who hexy brings in to fill that void.

Yeah no shit, Hartnell wasn't even the 2nd biggest threat on his PP line

Hextall:
-- Got quicker up front
-- Likes that RJ can play C and W
-- Shorter contract helps
-- No issues with Hartnell. "good hockey player"

Umberger says he wasn't happy with getting less playing time

And I'm sure RJ doesn't fall down nearly as much as Hartnell. He couldn't.
This is a simple game. You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball.

Umberger seems done and was a healthy scratch multiple times last year for Columbus. Maybe a change of scenery will help but I just don't know how much ability he has left.

Weird deal that does not make the team better.

I guess you have to look at it as trading 5 bad years for 3 bad years. Yuck all around.
