Thread: KK Is a Goner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sharcuda22</b></div><div>That’s true, but Granlund had succcess before PIT, which I believe was more of a bad fit system wise than it was an indictment on the player. KK is also a similar profile to players Grier likes to pick up, but he definitely went overboard this season which has led to us being beyond bad, and KK’s contract is very scary, and could prevent players like Bystedt and Edstrom from their places when the time comes. Given the nice buyout structure I would say no more than a 2nd probably to dump him, but it could be less depending on other pieces of the deal vs whether or not the canes are OK with the buyout. I’ve seen other people say 3-5th round picks but that seems too cheap for my taste.</div></div>

Maybe something in the ballpark of KK, CAR's '24 3rd, and a couple of 4th-6th round picks (Canes have plenty to choose from in the next 3 years) for the signing rights to Chmelevski? CAR sold off their '25 and '26 3rds previously otherwise you could maybe send two 3rds.

Thread: that last one hit sammys glove
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Swusc1026</b></div><div>I don’t think they waive him. I think they find someone to trade for him. So if you want him then you have to offer something. Does MG want him?

We still need forwards. You don’t have 13 solid NHL forwards yet.

Sharks needs:

Top 2 line center (hopefully fixed by winning the lottery- smith and celebrini)
2 top pairing dman
3/4 line forwards. Assuming Eklund, zetterlund, musty, and bordeleau are top 6 wingers.</div></div>

Sharks have plenty of middle six and bottom six forwards either in the NHL or progressing in the minors what they need is an entire first line. And you’re right they also need a top pair D. Also need a legit starting goaltender, I like Blackwood as a 1B but I don’t think he’s a 1a or an unquestioned starter. So, in essence the sharks are missing is a starting six.

Thread: Tankathon simulation and offseason Part 1
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Grier is getting a lot of hate for cleaning up the mess left by Wilson, I don't think people understand the fact that he got left holding a grenade in a game of hot potato, the fact he was able to move Hertl and Karlsson at all was surprising.</div></div>

And yes Wilson left a disaster one of the worst and weakest prospect pools maxed out cap situation with aging players and no real assets to make this a fast turnaround/ retool like they said they wanted to do.


Karlsson having a 100pt season and playing all 82 was such a blessing to be able to move him without retaining 1/2 his deal! Hertl had value and sad to see him go but Grier is right that it needed to be done.
