Not sure what posting a self portrait of yourself really accomplishes, but I'm sure there was a point to it.

You have no concept of the value of family. You must be a very lonely person.

The people defending kipper have to opinions:

He's tired of being thrown under the bus by his defence, thats why his play is ####ty. He doesn't care.

HE does'nt have to agree to a trade wah wah wah

Guess what he can't have his cake and eat it too.

Who's crying? Seems like the "let Miikka make his own rules" camp are the ones acting like over the top teenage girls.

LEAVE MIIKKA ALONE! LOL

Jiri and photon should lock up this thread until Kipper speaks to the media after the game.

LOL, I think you're reading a bit too much into that. Just saying business comes first when you're being paid 5MM.

The only one stirring up drama is you. Well, there are others.

Nice pic, btw. Did you take this of yourself while crying to sleep last night?

Disagreeing with the herd /= whining - unless you feel that way about anyone who disagrees with you.

I don't think there is any amount of money you can throw at anyone to choose over their family. At least not with Miikka. The guy has strong family values.

I hope this thread isn't an indication of where CP will be next year as we continue our quest to the bottom. Hopefully 2014-15 will be better. Right now I'm praying for another trade so we can kick this topic off the list.

Agreed, but it's totally different if the rumors about there being some complications are true. If that's the case, you'd have to be pretty heartless to blame him for refusing to be traded.

We just don't have enough information to make an informed judgement about his actions, and I hope for his privacy's sake that we never do.
