Bobr for Jones makes a lot of sense, except for the Sharks' cap situation. Bobr will demand $8M at least. Jones has a modified NMC. He can submit a list of 3 teams he is willing to go to. Given his play and cap hit I highly doubt anyone on his list would want him. Agree. Based on last season, Jones isn’t even close to being worth his salary so he may end up being the highest paid back up in the NHL. |

Don't think the Sharks can move Jones and upgrade in net and I don't really think they have to. Young goalies can come in and win right away when the team in front of them is right. I know it wouldn't be the way they done it in the past but they've also been prone to following other teams before coming up with their own ideas so if Jones falters again they should hand the reigns to Korenar. As much as they need physicality they can't sacrifice speed for it. Have to find guys who can play hard, play heavy, but not drag behind the flow of play. Guys like Tom Wilson, Josh Anderson, Micheal Ferland are the all-stars of that crowd and almost every depth forward on the Bruins and Blues fit that mold. They aren't many out there but the Sharks currently have zero. Need to fix that in order to go further. They barely got past Vegas and couldn't handle St. Louis so it ought to change but it can't change so much that they can't skate with Colorado either. I absolutely agree that can happen with the right defense in front of a new goalie...but that is not the Sharks D. How many games did they give up 4+ goals last year. Some of that is obviously Jones but some of it is bad D zone play. Burns is obviously great offensively but he’s really bad defensively. Between being out of position and his turn over issues he alone creates several odd man rushes against each game..tough ask for a rookie goalie. Agree 100% on the need to balance speed and toughness. |

If it's something like Marleau + Kapanen + Johnsson to New Jersey, New Jersey buys Patty out, Patty signs two-way for $900K in SJ, maybe then. |

$11M for a RFA will leave the Laffs with 3 players earning +$11M a year and will be in cap hell for the near future. |

Andrew Copp and Cedric Paquette are the top FA in that class, maybe the Sharks can get Zach Aston-Reese, too. Probably but those guys are RFAs, I know those teams are stretched for cap so it wouldn't be hard to let them go but it probably isn't that hard to keep them either. I'd take either of them on the skill/grity factor but none of them have great size for the role they play. Both those guys are better options than what we saw in the playoffs but do any of them fare better up against the likes of Reaves, Carrier, McNabb, Barbashev, Sundqvist, Edmundson, and Bortuzzo? I don't think so. I think Wilson bringing back Haley meant something. They explicitly said the guys missed having a guy like him around. I don't think they need to bring him back but they could add a guy like him to the fold, someone like a Kurtis Gabriel, Luke Witkowski, Adam McQuaid, or Dalton Prout. Probably not a guy you want to use 82 times but good enough to fill in for 2/3 of the year on a top-heavy team. With Braun gone, I think a veteran guy with some size and brawn like McQuaid or Prout could be a fit and come cheap. More skilled-wise, up front Alex Chiasson could be another guy. He can get hot and put the puck in the net somewhat but he's got an edge to his game too. I would not be surprised at all if Reeves ends up being let go by Vegas to help fix their cap nightmare. |

Corey Perry being bought out from the Ducks, Would anyone be interested in him if DW can get him on a cheap contract. He's a pest who can score goals, put him on the 3rd line with Thornton..

I’d cancel my tickets if I ever saw the scum Perry in a shark uniform. I don’t want to see him, let him play in Europe next season. Good riddance to that puke. |

Marleau's contract is a 35 and over contract so there is no actual cap relief from buying him out. NJD doesn't need to buy him out for relief. They need to stay over the floor, and here the buyout will come handy. At first I thought Ottawa would be an even better candidate, but Melnyk will not pay dead money. |

And screw Patty Marleau as well. What a pussy, begging to play with only the sharks again. DW has a NHL team to run, this ain’t no nostalgia circus in SJ.

I think it is fair to say Pavs was hurt this postseason.In seven fewer games played he ended up with one more point than Kane. I know he was hurt last postseason as well but that is also part of the game. Kane was brought in to be a post season type player that the sharks lack/lacked. I love the way he plays and what he brings to the table. It just has not been there when the sharks need it this far. |

look I liked Marleau when you were here, but that shipped has sailed man!
You can always retire as a Shark no problem. But you coming back, nah, I'm good.
Gotta get younger and faster not slower and wimpier!

This piece of shit should stay away from anything related to how the refs perform
from Rich Thompson of the Boston Herald,
The quality of the officiating in the NHL playoffs is a subject matter with staying power in the offseason.
“I think we’re professional sports and I think we suffer with what all professional sports are trying to get done,” Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs, who serves on the NHL Board of Governors, said Tuesday at a Garden press conference.
“We are trying to be perfect without interfering with the game. We try and make all the correct judgments and it’s clear we are not there yet. That’s pretty vague but I’m going to stay that way.”
The Bruins were the victims of several dubious calls over the course of four series against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Columbus Blue Jackets, Carolina Hurricanes and St. Louis Blues.
Jacobs addressed the delicate balance of maintaining the integrity of play on the ice without saturating the game with endless video reviews that take away from fan enjoyment.
“I think we will see some real changes and I’m hopeful that we can do it better in a very quick way,” said Jeremy Jacobs. “It is important that this game not be interrupted but at what cost.”
