Feels like a low acquisition cost for Maata. But then again he has struggled recently.

Blackhawk fans don't seem to like it on twitter. At least the pens still have jack Johnson.

The snap-judgement people will say Chicago won, but Maatta has really struggled with injuries and Kahun had 37 points last year as an undrafted rookie.

Maatta isn't very good. I think Pittsburgh got the better player in Kahun.

To a degree. Brodie is a better player than Maatta is/has ever been.

No, it's not. As much as people like to complain about Brodie, he is definitely a better player than Maatta.

I've seen a bunch of similar variations riffing on the same cultural reference. It basically wrote itself.

Hawks get a real d-man, give up little.

Good trade for them.

Maatta is damaged goods and I can't help but think Kahun a diamond in the rough.

But Maatta is only 24. If his he can put his health issues behind him and develop, he could be a high reward player.

Matta can't skate anymore, this is a slam dunk for the Pens.
