Thread: acquire number 2C

As you've already learned in this thread, San Jose fans think that Tomas Hertl = Leon Draisaitl. In fact, I think that you have constructed one of the better trades involving Hertl and the 8th overall pick that has appeared on this site, and I would guess that there have been at least a dozen since June 1. To me, 8th overall = Hertl plus the San Jose second (34th overall) and Montour = Labanc, more or less. The problem I see is that with Erik Karlsson and Brent Burns on that side, San Jose doesn't need Montour. Unless the Sharks trade Brent Burns to Dallas, as <a href="/users/RawZuccSauce420" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@RawZuccSauce420</a> has suggested in the past day or so. In that instance, and in conjunction therewith, this trade looks a lot better.

I think that even on bridge deals, Olofsson and Ullmark get a little more, and I'd think a little harder about signing Johan Larsson instead of Girgensons. ? <a href="/users/littlejerryseinfeld" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@littlejerryseinfeld</a> ?</div></div>


Rationale for adding montour is that he played the left side a little bit last season and besides 88 and 65 SJ has nothing on defense.
I would take Larson over Girgs but the rumor around town is that he doesn't want to resign, I was operating on that assumption.
Overall I agree tho
