Thread: what direction to go
Heads up: trading Ferraro for Zacha is like trading Gaudette for Reaves. A purely terrible trade. Not the right direction to go.

Ferraro is a major piece for the team going forward and he’s made huge improvements after just 1 year. If this trend continues he’ll be a 4-6mil dollar man. He’s already a top 4 D for us. Zacha is alright but I wouldn’t pay more then a couple picks for him.

I both like and dislike ADV stats and believe you need to use both eyes and stats to justify a player.

Last year Ferraro struggled but showed a ton of promise. Now currently Ferraros 2021 advanced stats so far have him in a “elite” defensive category (top percentiles and he’s valued at a 7m man for his effectiveness/ quality of play) - and sharks fans all would agree the eye test says the same (obviously it’s early, but he’s clearly improved).

Thread: SJS Sharks Season Debut Review PT1 - Preview for Saturday - Yikes
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MJC13</b></div><div>Hertl and Kane were absolute monsters, and that line should probably be the first line. I was also impressed by Ferraro, he really held his own in a top 4 role. Karlsson was ok overall, but I didn't love his play in OT. Meier was pretty solid too, but I really want him to break out into a bonafide 1st line winger this year, so my expectations for him are higher. Things that bothered me is the fact that our gameplan for defending a lead seems to still be to turtle up in the last 5 minutes, and we gave up way to many high danger chances (good thing Jones was solid for the most part).

On Saturday I'd like to see a much more complete defensive game, and I'd like to see Karlsson and Meier really step up.</div></div>

In my comments about Karlsson I think its like hes warming up. I agree he wasnt bad and he was just okay but I felt he looked content with not doing it all. Like he wasnt being dumb but it was like he was just trying to get slowly into the rhythm of the season and not trying to kill himself. Im expecting him to be better and better if thats the case - maybe you agree, but thats what it felt like for me. Im excited to see Ferraro grow, really think hes got the material to be a star; great attitude and hes very peronsable (as well as a heck of a player whos growing), and he works his ass off on and off the ice.
