If Columbus passes on Carlsson I’m sure GMMG picks him but will be interesting if they swing on the Russian Without thinking too much, I feel like waiting on Michkov might be the best thing. |

It's not like the Sharks are in a position to make a run next season anyway. Yeah I could wait a year but I ain't getting any younger. |

With a Russian prospect you're now almost in 1987. It's a huge risk. They can lower the boom on anyone < 40 these days.

Oilers have about four big hits so far and Draisaitl has hit two posts. I think Edmonton is winning this one. Well this aged like milk. Also, can't help but notice that Darnell Nurse friggin sucks. |

I’m not prepared for the Ducks winning the lottery and getting Bedard. The lottery has "Chicago won" written all over it. I called it out in April. |

What do you think. Is this the pick the Sharks should make? Sure you might have to wait a couple of years but the Sharks are no where near competing next year anyway
4. San Jose Sharks: Matvei Michkov, RW, Ska St. Petersburg (RUSSIA)
The message from first-year Sharks GM Mike Grier has consistently been that he wants to engineer a turnaround as soon as possible, but he also doesn’t want to skip steps, wants the right players in place and doesn’t want to rush into anything for a short-term gain. This pick could be a true test of the two sides of his plan. Michkov is the best player available. He can be a foundational offensive talent, but the Sharks might have to wait three years for him. Leo Carlsson could also be a great player, and should arrive in San Jose one or two years sooner. The Sharks aren’t likely to be any good next year, and maybe not two years from now, either. If Michkov can be a Kirill Kaprizov/Nikita Kucherov-level game breaker and step into the lineup just as the club is ready to compete again … isn’t that worth the wait?

Unless the NHL guarantees a compensation pick (not a 2nd rounder, but a top 5) in the case Russia seals the border, don't take players from there. |

Yes-- Too many variables out of the control of the Sharks.
Compensation idea is a good one. Any realistic chance NHL might announce it?

A Carolina-Florida ECF wouldn’t make up for Chicago getting Bedard but it is a nice middle finger to the NHL, haha.

[br Will Smith under 18 team USA is my choice if Carlson is gone. Smith has been moving up draft boards and if Columbus takes him it would not surprise me |

Be hard to imagine an unfair criticism of Karlsson’s defense. I suppose it could be argued there is nothing to criticize in non-existent defense). |

It’s been strange to see Timo struggling in NJ after he was our entire offense this season. Doesn’t seem like he’ll be back there.
Burns manhandled him tonight and is playing great

Atrocious chop, and nurse didn’t even instigate imo. That said, dirty series gets dirtier now. Which is fun |

PAVELSKI AND CO. LIFT STARS CLOSER TO WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL Roope Hintz (2-1—3), Joe Pavelski (1-1—2) and Wyatt Johnston (1-0—1) scored four of five Stars goals as Dallas moved within one victory of advancing to the Western Conference Final for the second time in four years. The Stars, with a six-goal performance in Game 4, netted five or more goals in consecutive playoff contests for just the third time in team history (also 3 GP from Game 6 of 2020 R1 – Game 2 of 2020 R2 & 2 GP from Games 4-5 of 2019 R1). * Pavelski (38 years, 304 days), who finished with his 17th career game-winning goal and potted his League-leading seventh tally of the 2023 Second Round, became the oldest player in NHL history to score at least seven times in a series. Maurice Richard previously held the distinction (7 in 1958 SF w/ MTL at 36 years, 240 days). * Pavelski also tied Bill Guerin (7 in 2009 w/ PIT), Mark Recchi (7 in 2006 w/ CAR) and Jean Ratelle (7 in 1979 w/ BOS) for the second-most goals in a single postseason by a player age 38 or older. Only Martin St. Louis (8 in 2014 w/ NYR) and Johnny Bucyk had more (8 in 1974 w/ BOS). * Hintz (8-10—18 in 11 GP), with his fourth outing of three or more points in the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, moved into a tie with Leon Draisaitl (13-5—18 in 10 GP) for the most points among all skaters. Hintz also matched Brian Bellows (4 GP in 1991), Dave Gagner (4 GP in 1991) and Steve Payne (4 GP in 1981) for the most three-point outings in a single postseason in franchise history. * Johnston, who netted the game-opening goal for Dallas, has benefited from Pavelski’s tutelage both on and off the ice as the 19-year-old has been living with the Pavelski family during his rookie season. At 38 years old, Pavelski is exactly twice the age of Johnston while the veteran’s 17-year NHL career has spanned nearly as long as Johnston has been alive.  -12012726.png) |
