Thread: 24-25 Sharks with big UFA signings

Screw it let’s do it maximum chaos

Thread: Opening Night

A few tweaks Duclair and Barabanov have a really solid chemestry so far in camp so those two together would be good, and Hoffman Zadina Hertl has been a consistent pairing. Starting Eklund on the 3rd line isn’t a bad idea, however I expect him to move up quickly.
Couture is likely to miss the start of the season per reports.
And Thrun and Rutta have been paired almost exclusively.

I would probably throw Knyzhov on 2nd pair over Burroughs, his shot improved and he has had a solid camp.

I do expect Macdonald to go on waivers and is likely picked up due to his cheap contract. Be nice to move 1 more LD and free up space but it might not happen.

Thread: Doing very little from here

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ecupirate07</b></div><div>That is quite the unlikely and rosy out look for a middle of the road prospect pool and the detriment of cap anchors that all of the buyouts, Karlsson and Couture will be</div></div>
sharks have one of the better prospect pools in the NHL (top 1/3) not middle of the pack and yes we’re lacking elite prospects and I won’t argue there, as is I think we really only have 1 in Eklund. but the rest i mentioned there are all prospects with Legit NHL futures, we add a top 5 from 23 with what we have and we have something worthwhile.
If he doesn’t want to say i hope we can get a good return for him otherwise i hope we keep him.

Thread: Doing very little from here

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ecupirate07</b></div><div>does Meier want to play for a team destined to be mediocre for the next 5+ years though?</div></div>

sharks are about 2-3 years from relevancy. by 24 offseason we should have a huge core of younger players either up or fighting for spots in…
Eklund Bordeleau Coe
Gushin Robins Weisblatt
and
Cicek Merkley
Kinazev Laroque
with
Mann Gaudreau Makinemi

combine them with
Hertl couture Karlsson Ferraro and a bunch of other guys who aren’t considered core but are solid and 40+ mil in cap space and we aren’t as bad off as we look.
Meier 2-3 years into his 8 year deal would see the team he’s on pushing for a new cup window with him as one of our leaders should be appealing.

Thread: Using The Athletic D-man suggestions and creative solutions

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jazzhandz321</b></div><div>I gotta say I really like the direction you've taken this team, if I were to counter with anything as a Leafs fan, I'd ask for Holl + 3rd for Bonino + Riemer</div></div>

Works for me. This ACGM with Holl... isn't that bad? And I'd prefer a winger like Marchment or Palat given the lack of depth in scoring wingers, but Strome wouldn't be that bad of a pick up especially if Bordeleau is sent to the AHL to develop his game further. Only change I'd make is to swap Megna with Vlasic in the starting lineup but good job all in all!

Thread: Using The Athletic D-man suggestions and creative solutions

I like this roster and especially the idea of acquiring Pettersson for a 3rd -- I think he and Holl could be a very good buy low yet high reward pairing. I think you're overpaying Strome -- 4 yrs for 4.5mil gets it done, I think (Sharks shouldn't go for anything more than that) -- but I like the general idea of signing him since Sharks need an offensive middle-6 right-handed wing who could also play center. Would also roll with these forward line combos instead:

Meier - Hertl - Barabanov
Eklund - Couture - Strome
Dahlen - Bordeleau - Labanc
Balcers - Chmelevski - Gregor

Good stuff! Icing on the cake would be to offload Labanc's contract and sign Marchment with the cap space.

I like this lineup and would be happy with this! the plus is we’ve kept all our picks so we can continue to build our prospect pool.

Thread: 1 year pick accumulation and then moving up in draft

No reason for the Jackets to trade down. Jarmo has said he's only going to trade either 6 or 12 for a truly special player that has the potential to give the Jackets 10 years of play. You're also trading for the wrong pick if you're targeting #12.

Thread: Surprise trade

Keep adding.

Jk yeah I would take that in a heartbeat.

Couture is still very good but the Shark’s cap woes would be lessened without his contract on the books. You could take out the 1st and it would still be a yes from me.

If we’re adding Dell I’d want the draft pick dropped to a later round. I’m not turning my nose up at Burns he’s still a high end player, but he’s getting up there in age and has nearly full control over where he goes

Sharks have no interest in a rental at that price. Can’t see why Carolina would consider that unless you add a bit.

I think sharks would easily consider that offer, but i’m not sure the Flyers should. it’s close but i think they could get a better deal from someone else, if not that is very tempting.

He has been McDonagh's partner for most of the last few years, but he's PK1 and played as Hedman's partner in the Toronto series. And yes all the LD's are still seperated
