Speculation: 2022-23 Sharks Roster Discussion Part II

[Pavelski2112]

Grier singlehandedly turning our defense prospect pool into something respectable

 

[STL Shark]

Thrun for a 4th in 2024? I don't mind the gamble.

Edit: a 3rd. Still don't mind it.

3rd rounder, but if he signs good gamble.

 

[Jargon]

I know people really wanted Thrun. Who is he?

Also, Grier is completely redoing our terrible defensive prospect pool, and I’m thrilled.

 

[Alaskanice]

Fantastic!! I was hoping against hope we could pick him up. Color me surprised. Welcome to San Jose, Henry!!

 

[Tw1ster]

Getting all the neat names in San Jose

We sound like a gang of Vikings.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

Within the last year we've added Mukhamadullin, Okhotyuk, Thrun, Havelid, Fisher, and Furlong to the D pipeline. Not too bad, and hopefully we add another with NJ 1st/our 2nd this year

 

[STL Shark]

I just don't see a team offering more than a 3rd for Barabanov which just isn't worth moving him to me. If someone offers a 2nd then I'd be open to moving him but I just don't see it as a high priority. Anybody not worth a 2nd or more should just be kept until the trade deadline of their contract's expiring year.

Guess I don't see a way that the market would value a player with his production that lowly. Megna and Hill both went for 4th rounders this year. Nino went for a 2nd at 0.5 PPG production. Barabanov is signed on a bargain deal as a non-rental. Just see there being absolutely zero precedent for a guy in that situation garnering a mere 3rd round pick.

Hopefully we can sign Thrun. Thatd be a nice pickup

I think he's focusing on Centers in a C-heavy draft so I don't mind him focusing on D at the moment.

6’2” 190 kid who is playing at Harvard and is scoring at a great clip year after year. He comes from the USNDP

 

[Stewie Griffin]

On the negative side, this could be Grier handing out another 3rd round pick for free if this guy doesn't sign.

If they can get a 2nd then yeah go for it but I just don't see it. Nino may not produce like Barabanov now but Nino is a proven playoff commodity. Barabanov doesn't have any playoff experience so that probably plays a part in it.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Trade Barbie for every 2026 pick the TBL have

You gotta imagine they had preliminary talks.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

You gotta imagine they had preliminary talks.

Grier: Where does this guy go to school

Verbeek: Harvard, but he doesn't want to sig...

Grier: Here's my 2024 3rd

 

[TheBeard]

On the negative side, this could be Grier handing out another 3rd round pick for free if this guy doesn't sign.

They've got a good amount of picks where they can risk one for a player that may end up being a steal.

 

[Sharkz4Fun]

Hopefully this was the pick Grier was thinking about using for Greenway/Fabbro.

 

[sharski]

Sometimes I just refuse to believe it when athletes or GMs say they "there haven't been any discussions about that"

Like, I get that your agent is handling it but

How are you not even getting CC'd for awareness on any emails? How is the agent and GM not updated on what the direction is? I call bullshit

This. Was absolutely needed.

 

[Levie]

If the Oilers pick up another dman like they are rumored to in the next few days I'm pretty sure it solidifies that Karlsson will be a shark for the remainder of the contract.

NHL trade deadline: Rangers officially land Patrick Kane from Blackhawks

Patrick Kane is leaving the Chicago Blackhawks after 16 seasons and three Stanley Cups.

Friedman reported the equipment shipped to NYC this morning. Need to wait until after 5pm ET due to cap reasons. To finalize.

 

[fasterthanlight]

If grier sells reimer and bonino for picks (or maybe barry if someone overpays) I will be happy.

There will be other suitors in the offseason.
