The 5 million dollar boat anchor. I love Jumbo but I really hope he's invested well and can accept a 1m contract for a year. |

Someone needs to fucking limber these guys up man. What the hell, lost a shot at a cup because of weak groins? |

Ya, I don’t want the Sharks to become the Blues. It’s past time to go for it. Horton has a ring and his name on the cup. What’s wrong with that? That’s the one thing I would like to see as a long term Shark fan. You misunderstood. Nathan Horton had a series of bad concussions and injuries, and surgeries, his signing by the BJ was a high-risk one, and he's been on IR lists ever since, only hindering cap management.
No I didn’t. I would like DW to sign E Karlsson as I think that gives the Sharks the best chance to win the Cup next season. What did you mean? |

[quote author=" Marbles" source=[/quote] Shit I'd let Karlsson walk and snag Tyle Meyers for 6.5-7million. Simmonds and Hagelin for potential plugs, even though I'm sure both are falling off. There were some other names in the 3-4.5 million category. Pavs is going to need to take a massive cut. Hes a beast but his pace doesn't cut it in the post season. [/quote] Yes, there will definitely be life after EK65. Meyers may be an ok UFA if he shot left. He doesn’t hit a lot for his size and that would disappoint many shark fans. I’m thinking of a big grizzly left shot D-man that can occasionally pair with Burns. Might be Simek who paired amazingly well with Burns for three months. Some of the improvements may already be on the shelf. Alex True should get a serious look at 4C. For the money, fit and impact, I like Brock Nelson on the UFA list.. and 2-4 more additions like that please.. |

EK65 is chasing the big payday. That was his mindset when he got traded and still is. It’s an enormous gamble to win the bid war because I don’t see him taking any kind of discount. Regardless that he could have a ring if he hadn’t fucked up his own injury issues. And he may never play a fully healthy season again.
Pavs and Jumbo will definitely take contracts below market and they will still be higher than we hope. Thankfully there is plenty of salary on the team that is movable and expendable.
Kane is still adjusting to being on a real team and getting his mind right. He should have been up there with our other impact forwards but I’m not giving up yet. Young

Labanc scores some clutch goals but I don’t mind sell high now. Plenty of holes in game and for all the potential, when you get that many minutes with jumbo at lower comp you should be cleaning up.

Tyler Myers is a hard pass. No The UFA class of this year is bare beyond EK. Empty as a pocket. Gardiner and Myers will look for a 7M deal, and good luck to them with that, they're barely worth half of it. The RFA have only two names worth mention: Trouba and Ryan Murray, since neither Zadorov, nor anyone off ELC will be available. |

Sure are a lotta groin pulls. When they fire everyone make sure the trainer is on that list I heard Nellie pulled his groin too! Oh wait... |

The org needs to decide what to do with EK65 until the end of the month of May. The paths from there are vastly different with or without him, and so are the needs. |

BTW, by all counts Jacob Middleton should be capable of at least leapfrogging Ryan and Heed.

If Doug does sign EK65, I'd like to see a bridge deal rather than a long term big dollar amount. Reading what he said made is seem black and white that he is going somewhere else, but watching the vid of him kinda clouded the water. If he stays... Cool. If he leaves... Cool. On a positive note, no nyquist contract, paul martin buyout gone. Should have some flexibility. And Simek seems like he is on track to be ready to go in Sept.

I wouldn't mind moving Labanc but I don't know how much they really get in return for his rights. I'd imagine they could get Labanc on a midterm deal between 3-4M. I don't think they'll find his production for that price on the open market or in trade. |

I think Karlsson is finishing his bridge deal now. I'm with you on staying or leaving. Doesn't bother me if he goes for bigger money elsewhere or sticks around because he thinks he can win here. His performance and injury history ought to give Wilson and other teams pause on handing him a mega contract though. Guy spent 10 years being massively underpaid as one of the best defensemen in the world. Now he wants to get paid. I don't think anyone would be any different. |

Biggest question EK65 faces now is if he needs surgery or not. He implied that in his post game comments. |

I am not going to read much into Kane saying he was fine. Jumbo said he pulled a groin but he also said he was fine. Guys are taking the high road about excuses and i respect that. I am certain Kane like most of the team was in fact injured. Something went wrong after the Chara fight and he was never right after that.

Doesn't exactly sound like he plans on coming back. If you are Tampa Bay are you going to move 3 or 4 contracts to be able to sign the guy? Tampa Bay has $8.5 mil in cap space but most of that is going to get eaten up resigning Brayden Point who is an RFA. Many people covering that team say he is more important to Tampa Bay than anyone. Tampa has 3 other RFAs on their roster and 3 D men (Coburn, Giraldi and Stralman) who are UFA's. Another big factor they have to keep in mind is their goalie is a RFA after the coming year. |

I would prefer to keep Karlsson but if he is going to bail I just want it to be to an Eastern Conference team. If you want to see a team in trouble with the cap take a look at Vegas. They are already over the cap with only 19 players under contract. They have 4 UFAs and 4 RFAs. Their big problem is William Karlsson is a RFA. www.capfriendly.com/teams/goldenknights |

Also DW needs to address the backup goaltender position. Nothing personal against Dell, who was ok, but sharks need a more NHL experienced goalie who can push Jones if he again languishes at a .900 SV%. Jones basically offered the starting position to Dell mid-season and didn't prove strong enough to accept it. Never again should the sharks have a team season SV% last in the entire league.
We don't need a big money 'Bobby' goalie, but DW needs someone who can better challenge Jones, who remains safe here primarily because of his fat contract. |

I think that Toronto is looking to move Nikita Zaitsev's contract. Maybe trade Braun and Melker Karlsson for Andreas Johnsson and Zaitsev?
