Thread: Shark Bait
How to say you don't know dick about the Sharks' prospects and didn't bother looking anything up before you made this roster without yadda yadda. We've got a massive backlog of prospects at LD, and within the next couple of years Thrun and Mukhamadullin are gonna be fighting for their spot on the 2nd pairing, and if Knyzhov can come back from the last year he'll be right in that mix too - so no, we don't need or want Darnell Nurse and his frankly terrible contract. HARD pass on that, and hopefully Grier has learned from Wilson's disastrous history of signing aging defensemen to long as hell contracts with heavy signing bonuses at the end which render them pretty close to un-buyoutable. Likewise, as much as I'd like to have more picks in the 3rd and 4th rounds, we don't need Reilly.

As much as I'd snap Petrov up in a heartbeat and don't mind the inclusion of the Lesser Savoie, we've already got a bunch of short kings coming up through the ranks and I doubt Grier would be particularly interested in Tulio.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Grievous</b></div><div>The scouting reports on his actual skill set is meh, but the kid has so much heart and hustle that he just might have a chance….

That’s the thing with prospects, if you are a draft pick, someone is very high on you. If you get signed, then several in the organization are high on you. Just remember he is a 4th rounder (I think), teams tend to value 1,2,3 rounders more, so he is exactly the type of player that could be traded in such a deal. It is far from a guaranteed that he will ever become an NHL player .

But he is definitely impressing hockey people on some level.</div></div>

He was drafted in the Wilson squared era and got his ELC in the Grier era, so he’s definitely impressing the right people. At this point I think it’s more likely that Hamaliuk would be a throw in before Cardwell.
