Speculation: 2023-24-25 Sharks Roster Discussion

[Jargon]

I actually don't know that it would. Jiricek hasn't exactly been great in the NHL, and if there's stuff going on behind the scenes like his agent forcing CBJ to keep him in the NHL instead of letting him play in the AHL or he's got a questionable attitude or simply isn't hitting the gym like he should, then I don't think he's worth anything close to Eklund.

I really loved Jiricek in his draft year (I ranked him 3rd overall), and if he were to become available then I would obviously be interested, but I actually had more interest when we had Hertl, a gym rat countryman and family man, who would have been an awesome mentor.

I agree, draft pedigree aside, he hasn’t really proven anything at the NHL level and I think his value is probably at its lowest right now. I do wonder if Musty + 2nd + a throw in “pretty good prospect” (Lund?) might work. Maybe not even that much, not sure. I think, like you said, it also depends on what’s going on behind the scenes.

He’s a worthy gamble though.

I mean Askarov hasn’t done anything at the NHL level and he cost Edstrom and a first. You could probably argue that Musty and a 2nd is similar value but I’m also not so sure about that. Add in the fact he’s a young RHD that hasn’t asked for a trade, think you’re paying more than that.

Askarov hasn't been given the chance to succeed in the NHL. I have literally zero doubt he'll succeed at the NHL level.

Meanwhile Jiricek has had 48 NHL games and can't crack the lineup of a horrible NHL team. The Jackets literally claimed Fabbro off waivers to play ahead of him.

Jiricek has a ton of risk to him. I think he's worth pursuing because of the upside, but I don't think he's got the same value as he did a year ago.

I mean I don’t think you’re wrong about Askarov at all and yes Jiricek has risk and while he might not have the value he had last year to us, I think you’d hear CBJ say differently. Friedman put it best yesterday on his podcast. He basically said something along the lines of he’s a 21 year old RHD that was drafted early, those aren’t available often. Basically long story short, I think at this moment, CBJ isn’t moving Jiricek for the likes of Musty and a 2nd.

I have faith that the trade request is coming.

With Allan Walsh as his agent, probably.

He's "worth" what others are willing to pay. I think someone (possibly even the Sharks) will likely pay more than Musty + 2nd. So unless they really love Musty, I don't think it would be enough.

That’s not quite right. He’s worth what CBJ will sell him for.

Rangers fans on the main board seemed to like my proposal of our '25 2nd, Ferraro and either Musty or Bystedt for K'Andre Miller and Jacob Trouba.

I just read that thread and saw that someone suggested Bordeleau instead of Musty and then you came back with Bystedt.

You are doing it all wrong.

2nd+Bordeleau+Ferraro for Miller+Trouba seems way too lopsided in our favor. Bords and Ferraro have close to zero trade value at this point.

Yea but we both know it's a fantasy trade anyways so it doesn't need to be fair if they are lowering the price.

It's like demanding to pay full price when the seller is giving you a 50% discount.
