Sharks fans incoming saying he’s worth two firsts, mcavoy, and pastrnak.

Does Hertl come with a contract extension agreed to or as a rental?

Not enough, Sharks will be asking a 1st and good C or RD prospect.

Still not enough

Hertl >>>>> Pastrnak, McAvoy, two firsts

Depends if Hertl comes with a contract or not. If not then they will get less. If he does then they should get more considering the 1st could be a late one.

Teams will remind the sharks what mark stone got, how much better mark stone is than hertl, and then tell the sharks to kick rocks.

Mark Stone agreed to re-sign with Vegas before the trade. That’s why I am asking if it is a rental situation or if they will have agreed upon signing extension before the trade. That makes a huge difference.

Well, no, he didn’t. But they had conversations and it seemed like they were going to be able to work something out.

But that was the point. The contract thing really doesn’t affect things that much. Look at stone’s return.

Again Stone made it known that he wanted to sign with Vegas. If Hertl does the same it makes a huge difference when it comes to the return. If Hertl wants to test the market then the return will not be the same. Getting a rental vs a guy locked up long term obviously makes a huge difference when it comes to value.

Okay, let’s follow your logic. Stone did that I guess. So Hertl’s return is a good prospect and a 2nd, if he gets an extension? Seems fair to me.

Yeah that’s readable. I’d say an A prospect (which Brannstrom was viewed as at the time) and a 2nd or a 1st considering the 1st will be late. The trades won’t be identical obviously.

What ever you are smoking I definitely want some when you think Hertl is better than Pasta, McAvoy etc. That being said, thank you for the good laugh.

Nor should they be. It should be less because stone was way way way way better than hertl.
