Quoting: Lord_Simek
From a Sharks fan. Goody emerged this year as one of the elite penalty killers. Sharks have had the best PK in the league all year and a lot of that is due to Goody. He is versatile enough to play on top six (in emergency) and he sticks up for his teammates. He’s a great forechecker and is pretty good at face offs. I’m pretty shocked he got us a 1st but Tampa isn’t getting nothing in return. He’s signed thru next season at 925k. Sharks fans are pretty sad to see him go, he scored one of the most iconic sharks goals against Vegas in game 7 last playoffs. He was undrafted and had to work really hard to get where he is.
You paid a high price for him but he will seriously help your depth in the playoffs and kill penalties with aplomb. Not a great trade for TB but the fans there will appreciate him thoroughly.
Thanks dude for the input, seeing him in the first game was refreshing, looks like indeed he is like a Coleman type energizer guy. He hit someone D-men first game, who almost got a concussion.
The hit was so big, but not against the rules... Will come in handy in the playoffs, so we don't get humiliated by the likes of Tom Wilson/Hayes/Reeves types of guys...
His PK skills looks sweet also, i knew about SJ killing it this year on the PK. But i knew they wouldn't keep up the 95% PK the whole year hahaa.... that was insane stat for lots of games earlier in the season...
Wish we could've acquired Dillon as well. I liked his playstyle in
from the game i watched... He was so cheap, almost like under market value... Look solid.
As for Game 7's - Looks like our GM went for Justin " Mr. Game 7" Williams type of players. We also got Maroon, who scored big goal in some
"unknown"
game 7 hahaaaa
I think i figured it out, seeing the press conference with BriseBois after trade deadline. I think he is preparing the team for next year by selling Yanni Gourde/Alex Killorn. And probably we keep Tyler Johnson.
That's my current guess:
Alex(wing)/Yanni(c) out --> Coleman(wing)/Goodrow(c) in
Looks like our scouts really watched Goodrow/Coleman for 40 games each this season... so they had both of these players are Nr. 1 priority at all costs...
Well the price was:1st round x 2 + 2nd.
As i already told in the last topic. Nolan Foote is a 2nd round pick and he is not NHL ready for years... If we don't pick him, he goes to like 35-40th place...
He needs to work a lot in lots of areas, before he becomes a middle six - or top9 forward in the
Also if you look at the other 1st round pick, it's most likely the same as an early 2nd round. There is not much difference between pick Nr. 26 vs pick Nr. 35.
It's not like it's top3 vs top 10, where top 3 99% is elite player vs top 10 = can be often bust/non elite like a medium skilled top6 guy or a top4D.
So almost 1st + 2nd+2nd the price, and we got back a 3rd in the Goodrow trade anyways...
So 1st round(middle-Vancouver pick like 20th) + 2nd round(early) +2nd round(early) for Coleman+Goodrow "combo".
It's not even 100% that from all of those 3 picks combines 2 solid NHL'er will come out in 5 years...
So for us it's not that important, because our window is until our main pieces not regressing. Max 5 years... there are couple players who already like around 29-30 years old...
Not the end of the world i guess if you analyze it a little deeper than the average Joe on the internet who only sees 1st round pick = god tier vs Goodrow = career 4th liner...
