Jesperi Kotkaniemi still "lives" in Brossard

On August 28, Jesperi Kotkaniemi signed a $6.1 million pact, which Marc Bergevin did not want to match. Tonight, Thursday, October 21, the Carolina Hurricanes are in town to face the Sainte-Flanelle. This will be "KK's" first game against his former club.
Marc Bergevin quickly moved on by sending a first and second round pick to the Arizona Coyotes in order to get Christian Dvorak. In short, thanks to the first round picks (and a second pick in 2024), D-Vo is now a key player for the Montreal Canadiens.
All this to say that the organization has not forgotten the Finn, who is still on the walls of the Bell Sports Complex in Brossard. I wonder why we didn't clean up after Marc Bergevin's moves?
By the way, the CH Group is pretty late in this matter as Victor Mete, Max Domi and Dale Weise are still on the wall as well. Maybe it's just me being too intense and perfectionist, but I feel like they don't belong there anymore!
