Really interesting player analytically. Could explode in bigger minutes and everything defensively looks solid. Sharks out of all teams need players like this so much.

No real issue here. Not bad but not amazing. We’ll see if he can find a home with term in the next 2 years because he has shown some potential.

Had a great year in SJ, showed a lot of promise. He'll likely slot into the 3RW role alongside whatever 3C we get and Jonathan Dahlen. Looking forward to it.

Good signing. Nice to see Balcers get a real deal for what he deserves. He has good upside too. I like this signing a lot for the Sharks.

Solid deal, not too much money imo. Rudy is pretty awesome both analytically and with the eye test so that’s a no-brainer imo.

Still can’t believe the Sens put him on waivers lmao

In modern Latvia male names commonly end in 's' while female names commonly end in 'a' or 'e'. Pre-independence Latvian names we're Germanized and didn't do this. Now they do.
