Speculation: 2023-24-25 Sharks Roster Discussion

[ChompChomp]

I wouldn't mind going after Tavares if he becomes available. He's 34 but still pretty effective. If you can do like a 3x$9m, I think he'd be great as a transitionary top 6 C.

I think it would be hilarious if, now, Tavares actually wants to come to SJ.

So you'd rather give a dumb contract to a declining #2/#3 defenseman than a bonafide top-line winger in his prime? Wut

Yes

We need a capable top pairing defenseman so much more than a 90 point winger, if we're gonna throw out an irresponsible contract in free agency it should be at our position of greatest need

I think anyone using the PPG argument when it comes to a discussion about Marner's playoff effectiveness is not being serious. In big, important moments, in crucial games, Marner frequently fails to come up short.

So does mathews, tavares, nylander

Tavares yes, Matthews less so, and Nylander the least.

I agree, but I doubt Tavares wants to come to SJ. He should want to chase a cup somewhere...

 

[weastern bias]

This is all moot because Marner and Tavares are both definitely re-signing

Toronto is convinced that everything is going great, they're not gonna break the band up until guys are on decline and have lost all value

Now they're coming to terms with Rielly entering his Vlasic death spiral, so naturally the fans want him gone, but it's like 2 years too late to move that deal, they're just gonna keep going as constructed and keep flaming out early
