Great Scott, what is that?
I know, not cool to be making fun of a guy's looks, but seriously, he's a scary MF. Remember back in the day when Olli Jokinen was the object of every GM's affection. "OMG he doesn't like Florida! We could get Casper Jokinen!!" Even I couldn't help but think of "what if" the Kings didn't trade him for being so piss poor in his first years in the NHL. I mean, this guy was picked f'ing 3rd in the '97 Draft. So much for a high draft pick.
Jokinen has gone from a player for whom teams were willing to shell out multiple players/draft picks to someone who is traded with an average guy for essentially a bag of dicks. In response to the trade Jokinen was quoted:
“Definitely, it’s a slap in the face to get traded"
Yeah, no shit dude. If you don't produce your stock is going to fall...perhaps that's why players secure a no-trade clause.
