I love Athanasiou's speed, finish and upside, but with that comes poor consistency, effort and a lacking 200 foot game. If he could figure out those downsides to his game, I'd be all over him though.

I mean Haula is quite clearly the best Center still available, which is the Sharks couldnt afford him. AA has more talent than any of the other centers he'd play ahead of

Yeah I agree on Haula being the best option out there to play 3C, but I actually think the Sharks could afford him. With the flat cap, FAs have been signing for less and given that no one has gone after him, I think he'd take a considerable discount. Although if we literally sign every player still on the market who cant play C I guess we won't be able to afford him...

Decent top 6 forward group. Poor bottom 6. Lacking defensive depth. Burns and Karlsson must be healthy and log a lot of minutes. Not sure about goaltending. They will be lucky to make playoffs.
