Thread: If hes available- would Sharks fans do this
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RawZuccSauce420</b></div><div>Good start but I would probably want more value here. Skarek isn't a good prospect, so no real need for him. I like Wilde, so that's a solid add. You're gonna have to help me with Bellows because I don't see anything special there statistically, but I also haven't watched him at all. Isles777 mentioned Simon Holmstrom and that would probably be a difference maker to be honest.

My ideal counter would be Wilde, Holmstrom, 2021 2nd (COL), 2022 1st (NYI). Might be overkill but let me know.</div></div>

Bellows was more of a throw in since he doesn’t have a spot on the isles and won’t- he’s got talent but won’t get a shot here cause he’s not very defensive and now an older prospect very boom or bust.. I’d probably try to top 3 protect the 1 but wouldn’t be make or break to me assuming it happens at the TDL I’d take that deal

Thread: With clutterbuck out
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>Eberle’s 1st year with the isles in 17-18 he was just as good as barzal. He had a tough time adjusting to trotz system , but last year he figured things out and had a 1st line impact. He’s gotten even better this season.

I think it was trotz who said lee lost a few pounds and worked on his skating to become more deceptive. He looks like a different player this season. Obviously his contract won’t age well, but for the time being he’s living up to contract.</div></div>

I mean I’ve been of the opinion his contract won’t age well too but if wahlstrom pans out on the path he is now at the worst case you’re looking at a guy in Lee he’s gonna bury a vast majority of wallys rebounds obviously will never be a line driver but I think the contract still has potential to age fine now

Thread: deadline Nashville mates
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles777</b></div><div>so we traded toews for scraps and now we're talking about giving up a 1st + two of our top 6 prospects for Ekholm. Just awful asset management, at this point just give Aho or hickey a shot. Trading a 1st for a Dman is reckless with the situation the isles are in.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AndrewLadd</b></div><div>I agree w this, an ekholm trade is nice in theory but if it were to happen it’s pretty much impossible to justify trading Toews</div></div>

And for the love of god this teams issue isn’t defense if they’re going after anyone it’s a winger.. I get that Andy Greene isn’t ideal but doing anything more than something like a 3rd or late rounder for a depth dman would be insanely reckless at this point
