Karlsson Doesnt Want A Rebuild

Created by: Adam87_nl
Team: 2020-21 Florida Panthers
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 14, 2021
Published: Mar. 14, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Eric Karlsson said he doesn't want to be apart of a rebuild. Given the Sharks roster construction, it's hard for me to believe that they will contend any time soon (See contracts to Burns and Vlasic).

There are not many options where a Karlsson could be traded in a 1-1 type of deal . Bobrovsky, Doughty, Skinner, Price are a few of the names who are currently making similar money and/or not living up to their contracts.

Curious Pathers & Sharks fans. What are your thoughts on this deal?

If Karlsson doesn't want a rebuild, he should get his contract voided and sign with a decent team for a fair value.

I would not trade Bob for Karlsson if I was Florida.

Hm definitely an interesting foundation, but you'd probably add Stralman and Jones too. Not sure where else to go from there

He's kinda the reason why the Sharks are "rebuilding". I'm not 100% blaming him because injuries played a big part in his downfall, but he's out there playing like a 3m$ dman while he's paid 11.5 until 2065.

That's what's wild. SJ could retain 50% on Karlsson and he would still be overpaid on the team he's going to. He's going to be paid a lot and retire with a fat bank account, but his contract will keep him from ever winning a cup.

Absolutely. He'll retire a rich man without his name on the Cup.

I agree, unless somehow some team manages to get SJ to retain and swap a sh*tty deal. Like the deal this guy proposed isn’t too crazy IMO. You just need to find the right fit, with a willing partner. I just don’t see karlsson being a shark for that whole deal.

Maybe in a few years if Karlsson can elevate his play a little more, but even Buffalo with Skinner would be crazy to take on Karlsson with retention IMO. Just too much term and money to make moving him possible.

Any EK trade would have to be something like this yes...can't be moved without taking one huge contract in as well.

Bob's NMC brings an issue though.

I mean, if SJ retained to match skinners AAV it would likely go through. Karlsson brings more than skinner does and that says a lot.

In 2018, the guy wasn't kidding when he stated he will get paid for what he is worth no matter what. He just didn't specify whether it was Pre-2018 Karlsson or Post-2018 Karlsson.

Sharks are trash and need a retool, Panthers look legit. Plus Florida have low taxes and California is a dumpster fire.
