I always liked Kelly during his time here in Ottawa, and am really happy for him doing well in Boston. Awesome that they gave him the 'A', and he won a cup.
I hope he doesn't resent us for trading him so we can bring him back later in his career, sorta like we did with Auld. I'm really glad he won the cup, really deserves it.

he got traded to the cup winning team. yeah, i'm sure he's real bitter about that one.
Well that part worked out for him but he didn't want to leave and I'm sure he was pissed when it happened.
He went out of his way to thank Bryan Murray for trading him to the Bruins at the deadline for an opportunity to win the cup - while he was still on the ice after they won the cup.

I'm sure he's fine and seemed fine in interviews after BM did a good job taking care of the players he traded, especially fisher. Kelly even brought the cup here this summer
Kelly's on pace for 60 points this season. Hard to believe some people complained about his salary wen he was here.
Was going to say this as well, I remember people hating his rather paltry salary while I still think the cap was still at a large number, like 50 million? He's worth every dollar back then and now.
I wasn't cheering for Boston, but it was nice to see Chara and Kelly win. They were also two of the few players from either team that weren't classless that whole final

While you guys are the ones that originally convinced me on the type of player he is (battle tank is a pretty damn good and accurate nickname for him haha), I hope he stays in Boston for ever.
I see what you guys were saying when you told us we would be lucky to have him. Even when he isn't scoring he is always doing something right. Intangibles and intelligence is his game for sure.
yeah the complainers were unbelievable, he was really piling up those 60 point season in Ottawa, what more could you ask for
He is not paid like a 60 point player though, never has been. That wasn't the point.
2 mil for a veteran who brings all the intangibles that Kelly does is a great deal.
He is a great defensive forward and he usually spends more time in the other end than his own, even if he is not scoring. I'm glad to see he is doing well in Boston and wearing the A.

He has a lot of respect for the Sens and the fans and always thanks them.
He seems to be an emotional guy when he discusses it.
I met him right after the trade and he was a bit jittery. He has really settled down and it is showing.
I do think he plays with the Bruins for a few more years but I see both he and Fisher signing one day deals to retire as Sens.

Kells being traded was the first time since Hossa that i was legit upset to see a guy from the Sens leave. I'd love to see him back someday. Condra doesn't look right in the 22 jersey.

I agree, i really hope he comes back here in the summer. Does he live here in the offseason? I believe he does but im not 100 percent sure.
