Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Could Hertl be a guy to target? All of a sudden this might be the most potent centerdepth in the league. It has everything you could wish. Also plenty of size to go with it. Bertuzzi could get himself a great chance to get himself a nice deal at 2025 UFA if he can succeed here.

That pp looks like a 35%+ one ;)

Captain: MacKinnon

I don't see SJ trading Tomas Hertl.
Tomas Hertl isn't giving up in SJ, and he's buying in on the SJ rebuild.

Hertl would be a great addition to the AVs. Can't see the Sharks parting with him for any deal that doesn't include a first. Change that 2nd to a 1st and it's fair. Don't see how the AVs fit Hertl under the cap longterm.

Hertl would be a great stylistic fit in Colorado but the price would be astronomical and would requiring shipping out some assets

Quoting: RecycleShark

The only way it fits is if Landeskog never plays again, and even then some juggling would need to be done.

Hertl is 30 already. Has 8 million cap hit. There's no way of fitting him in long term especially if landeskog comes back.
And avs have byram and rantenen extensions.

Of sharks retained at least 40% I could see them possibly doing it

Grier would have to think about this hard. We dont have a Girard like player in the pipeline. We have more C coming
