Johnny_rudeboy Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 His history: He was undrafted and played 4 years at Mercyhurst College in the NCAA. After graduating he played for the Missouri River Otters of the UHL. He then played for the Reading Royals of the ECHL before playing for a large numbers of teams in the AHL including the Peoria Rivermen, Iowa Stars, Milwaukee Admirals, Bridgeport Sound Tigers, Manchester Monarchs, and Springfield Falcons. Pittsburgh signed Kemp to a one year contract this past summer and now have dealt him to Montreal for a conditional draft pick.

Bumblebee_mtl Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 T.J. Kemp scored a goal in his first game as a Bulldog last night. That's the way TJ! Actually they took it away from him. I guess it bounced off Stewart So first game 1 assist! Second game a REAL goal. (Big nice one too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flunky Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well, there goes Pittsburgh's conditional draft pick. FYI, the "condition" was that if Montreal re-signed Kemp to a new contract, we would have to give the Pens our 7th round pick in the 2010 draft. But since Herr Kemp is now off to the Fatherland to ply his trade, the Pens get squat, which is pretty much what he was worth in the first place. Tschau TJ, and don't forget to write. PS: What's an Arseburger anyways? Sure doesn't sound very appetizing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
