Thread: How To Fix This
The Shorks don't need to get rid of Quinn, they just need a coach who isn't going to destroy our prospects moral and development by playing them in the NHL and getting trounced 10-1 every week, ending a season with less than 20 points and a -90. Couture and Barabanov aren't going to do much for this team. Instead of losing 10-1, we will lose 6-1. Hanifin is 26 years old. He will be well past his prime by the time this team is anywhere near the playoffs. I'll take the two very high 2nds over Hanifin every time as a year one rebuilding team. Hoffman, Duclair, Labanc and Granlund all have negative value. By the time of the TDL, Duclair will have less than 20 points and be worth less than a 4th with half retained. As far as calling up ANY promising prospect, that is the firmest NO. Leave Gushchin and Muk in the AHL. Ozzy won't turn into anything, so call him up if you want, you can't ruin a bust. Just except that EDM or PIT will get Celebrini and that the Shorks will draft the safest pick, and not the one with the highest ceiling. We also wont draft any high end goalies and make excuses about how they are hard to judge.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SJSGM</b></div><div>I personally can't even root for them to lose or a tank, but even if you are, this team needs a win now. Moral has to be completely in the toilet and something needs to go right.</div></div>

One win isn't going to improve moral. Dead last is dead last. I'm sure everyone on the team knows it's going to be a very long and unexciting season. I suggest the shork fans do the same. This is why I highly recommended the shorks don't play their high end prospects in the NHL. This season will destroy Eklund and Bordeleau. Just like winning games, playing our prospects will do nothing positive. Their growth will stunt because of it and this ''retool''/not rebuild will take much longer. I'm calling it now.

Thread: Sharks Land Celebrini Trade for Andersson and Sign Nylander Reinhart Samsonov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HShockey</b></div><div>Rushing the rebuild is a bad idea, that defence isn't good either. SJ already has a young core intact (Eklund, Smith) and if they tanked for another 2-3 years, they have the chance to land 1 maybe 2 GENERATIONAL talents (Macklin, Misa, or McKenna) which is crazy to think about.

In 5-6 years, when Nylander, Reinhart, and Andersson start regressing and Hertl and Couture are washed up, your likely going to have do re-tool again while your stars (Celebrini, Smith, Eklund) hit their prime. Therefore, SJ should tank it to the ground for another 2-3 seasons and build a potential dynasty instead of rushing it</div></div>

I fully agree. As a shorks fan it amazes me how many SJS fans think we will be, and want us back in the playoffs in 2/3 years. To make it worse, Grier wants cap space now, I think that shows what his plan is. We have zero need for cap space for the next 4 years. I'm so ready for the failed rebuild, it's going to be great! Go Grier!
