Speculation: 2022-23 Sharks Roster Discussion Part II

[Cas]

Eyssimont is heavier than Namestnikov, so this is utterly confusing.

 

[Pavelski2112]

This is the most confusing trade of Grier's tenure. I really don't get it.

 

[Friday]

There has to be an add by TBL or this one of the bigger lol trades I can remember

 

[Alaskanice]

I swear, people are getting worked up because we traded Essyimont?
He’s taking too many penalties. We just picked up Zetterlund and he’s younger and more skilled.

 

[Jargon]

Fascinating

 

[Juxtaposer]

Making the Bolts retain on Namestnikov suggests that Grier genuinely wanted him. In a vacuum, this trade is essentially meaningless, but I hate what it says about Grier.

Edit: I’ve never hoped for Pagnotta to be right more.

 

[Sharkz4Fun]

If Bjugstad is having trouble being moved I don't see how Bonino gets moved unless its a former team for a 7th rounder.

 

[nabbyfan]

I thought Eyssimont was one of our better forwards alot of nights that he was here, which is a compliment to him and also a big reason why we have the fewest wins in the NHL.

Best of luck to him in Tampa if he gets any big league time there. Curious to see what else Grier has up his sleeves with this.

 

[Alaskanice]

Lots of hatred. Ugh.

 

[Jargon]

Namestnikov for Fabbro, let’s do it?

 

[Mafoofoo]

Because it seems odd to help Tampas cap for no picks?

What would it take to make you be negative about a sharks move?

 

[Bizz]

sounds like we're gonna flip him.

 

[Friday]

Okay so Namestnikov has value to flip? Weird haha

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Why trade Essymont? Wasn’t he contributing? Who on this team will be worth watching. I wish they would just say what the goal is.

 

[Alaskanice]

What would it take to make you be negative about a sharks move?

There’s obviously more. I have the ability to be patient.

 

[OrrNumber4]

I don't get this trade at all. Eyssimont was playing very well in SJ; was it something to do with his locker-room or off-ice attitude? He was right-handed as well...

There’s obviously more. I have the ability to be patient.

I hope so. The key will be on Grier being able to capitalize. If he can't move Namestnikov then it's a bit of a waste.

Am I the only one who misread that Masisak tweet and was shocked? haha

 

[SJSharksfan39]

There’s obviously more. I have the ability to be patient.

There’s a difference between being patient and being confused.

 

[Pavelski2112]

There’s obviously more. I have the ability to be patient.

Yea this is definitely part of something bigger

 

[Alaskanice]

There’s a difference between being patient and being confused.

What is there to be confused about?

 

[Jargon]

Eyssimont was great but ultimately meaningless - Zetterlund is a much better version of him. But this trade only makes sense if we flip him.

 

[SJSharksfan39]

What is there to be confused about?

With this team, everything.

 

[hohosaregood]

Eyssimont was great but ultimately meaningless - Zetterlund is a much better version of him. But this trade only makes sense if we flip him.

But I wanted a line with Zetterlund and Eyssimont

 

[KirbyDots]

If we flip him it makes sense, basically a three way trade. Tampa is retaining 50 percent so we can still retain on another contract.

 

[Alaskanice]

With this team, everything.

You’re not committed to this.
