flip flop Meier and Eklund
Hertl Meier Barabanov have clearly been the sharks best line and one I wouldn’t mess with! a Sniper a set up winger and a C who does both
Eklund would be the set up man for Couture and Dahlen
3rd line is solid same with 4th

You could also send Simek to the minors and keep those 2 picks.

but we’re known as a team that cares about their players and vet’s, doing this would be a bad mark on our solid record.
the trade would get him a second shot.

They have to waive him to send him to minors, any team can get him for free. And you keep your picks.

But Arizona will gladly take those 2 picks for 1 year of Simek.

2 years. and Simek is still a decent bottom pairing guy who hits ad adds a little grit, perfect to pair with a rookie.
the problem here is we are right up against the salary cap and were stil not 100% sure whats going to happen with the Kane Grievance. so some room would be good.
and we have Ferraro and knyzhov both back next year to go with the immovable vlasic contract and Megna all nhl caliber with Kinazeva nd Hatakka both really close to NHL ready in the minors.
just no room for Simek

Sharks will trade Reimer over Hill. Hill is upcoming young goalie , same with Kaapo. Keep the young guys, dump the old one.

I wouldn't be so sure. BB has for sure been frustrated with Hill, and of course so have we as fans and I'm sure Hill too more than anyone. But if BB has any say in the matter, and I wouldn't be surprised if he does, I see them selling off Hill. Unless a team coughs up a late 1st for Reimer or offers some thing equivalent to that. Also, 34 and a few months (hopefully) at 35 years old shouldn't be too much a drop off for Reimer, but it'll be interesting to see for sure which of the two they choose to keep.

You’re wrong, Sharks would be stupid to keep Reimer over Hill. I like Reimer, he’s a competitor in the crease but he’s got 2 years of solid NHL hockey left before he’s 37 year old backup chasing a cup.

One more missed playoff year and BB is GG…GOONE. His opinion doesn’t matter at all.
