Thread: Opening Night Lineup prediction

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>goodfella</b></div><div>This team is much deeper than they were last year. However, the Kane situation with the locker room needs to be resolved.

Also, if Hertl is going to depart, they're better off sinking for another year.</div></div>

We know what they're better off doing but the org thinks otherwise so lets just try to have fun eh

Thread: Opening Night Lineup prediction

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfrojelin</b></div><div>Yeah but the pk prowess is the whole reason Bonino and Cogliano were brought in, to have players like that that're not offensively black holes</div></div>

Nieto is likely one of the better PK guys on the team. Cogliano has lost a step so that 4th line will need high end speed and Nieto brings that. We'll see what happens but I don't see Nieto being a healthy scratch much this year.

Thread: Opening Night Lineup prediction

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfrojelin</b></div><div>I agree except for the 4th line a bit. The 4c job is for sure an open battle so who knows, but it's still Gambrell's spot to lose imo. I think Nieto is a health scratch in favor of N. Merkley, Leonard, or Gregor</div></div>

The whole point of bringing veterans in was to give the young guys time to develop. I highly doubt Nieto is a scratch as his PK prowess is too essential and his speed is still high

Thread: going for it

Boston will not give up what SJ desires. Their 1st isn't going to be a good one and they won't give up Lysell. Nothing else on that team is of interest to SJ so we can forget Hertl ever going there until Sweeney parts with Lysell. If you want a great player, you need to give up a great prospect. Welcome to the bigs.

Thread: Roster with three rookies not named Eklund

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bias_it_self</b></div><div>Personally, I think Pasichnuk has the best shot at taking an NHL job. We'll see though, Hatakka impressed me this past prospect game.</div></div>

I like Pasichnuk but he was way out of place in the NHL last year and even he admitted he needed to be in the AHL to keep developing. Hatakka also has a full year in Liiga under his belt playing against men.

Thread: Kane

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>Most people who follow the NHL don’t think the sharks are contenders, neither do I, and this would be a great way for them to get rid of a problem player and pick up draft capital for the “retool” or whatever DW wants to call it. I’m not sure the caps want to do it though</div></div>

Never said "contenders" but playoff hockey is a possibility. retools dont go on for years. We cant rebuild due to 4 contracts that are basically unmoveable. So why not keep our star players to give us some hope and to enjoy watching hockey. Our prospects need to develop and keeping a guy like Kane in the lineup allows that. This has nothing to do with being a contender on paper, we had that for YEARS and never won. This is about keeping veterans in the lineup, keep the team competitive and not rushing Eklund, Bordeleau, Gushchin, Coe, Wiesblatt Robins etc.

Thread: Kane

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>I think this would be a steal for the sharks even with the retention. If I was GM I’d taken this and run.</div></div>

The best deal is Kane and the team work it out. Mario's statements on Evander we're pretty telling that not everyone (if anyone) had a problem with Kane. This is not a good move for SJ at all if they intend to compete for the playoffs. Caps easily win this deal it is basically a fleecing.

Thread: Roster with three rookies not named Eklund

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>What could you trade to get a 2nd pickle? Alex Vlasic. They're cousins and he's crushing it at Boston. Just curious to hear your thoughts.</div></div>

With Hatakka coming up I don't think we'll need a 2nd Vlasic. The org is really high on Hatakka.

Thread: Roster with three rookies not named Eklund

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>I hope for SJS fans that this team exceeds expectations. Barabanov looks to be much happier than he was in TOR. I like Bonino as the #3C because he can win a faceoff and still plays a defensive style game. That 2nd line looks sub par to me and the defense just doesn't play defense so it'll again be a tough go for the goalies, but with all the drama Evander Kane's been bringing, I hope you guys get some pleasant surprises! You guys deserve it.</div></div>

Sharks fans have taken a lot of **** on the internet thats for sure! Hopefully Barabanov's play last year wasn't one and done and he can compile 40 points. The defense still has 4 defensive dmen in Mario, Kny, Pickles and Simmer or Hatakka (santeri probably won't make the team except for a call up)

Thread: Kane

Kane is staying. SJ would never ever retain 3.5mil for 4 years. The org won't pay to trade Kane at all.

Thread: What about

Honestly and I know I am one of the few, but I'd rather keep Kane. Kane's play on the ice is at least trending up while Tarasenko...not so much.

True and the next contract is going to be closer to 7.5 or more as well.

Thomas Bordeleau. Rookie of the year in NCAA last year. Led a stacked Michigan team feat Power, Johnson, Beniers in points and would have been on the gold medal World Juniors team had he not been roommate of Beecher who had a false-positive.
