christensen is like a classic pittsburgh pirate. only a hockey player. a skill player, with some skill, but not enough skill to crack a top two lines on a halfway decent team. but good enough to hang around the nhl for long enough. hes like garrett jones, only a center instead of first baseman.
I'll always remember when the Hossa/Dupuis trade happened. Pierre McGuire didn't lament the loss of the Penguins' vastly overrated locker room comedian Colby Armstrong like so many other people did. He was upset that the Penguins traded Erik Christensen, who he saw as a talented, dynamic young hockey player. What a buffon.
