Speculation: 2023-24-25 Sharks Roster Discussion

[Patty Ice]

So sign him and use him as a trade chip in a package after he has some development?

Or build a 3rd line from free assets.

San jose is now 6 points back of Chicago, with Chicago having an extra game over us. So after thursday we can be 8 points back with only 15 games left in the season.

Two way street. He's going to want a clearer path to NHL playing time than we can probably provide. That's a big factor in these types of college UFAs making their decisions on where to sign.

He could easily get playing time with the sharks, basically the same deal with graf.

Trade:
-OTT 2nd for Mason Marchment (Dallas is in a cap crunch, we can either extend Marchment or recoup the pick at the deadline)

OK

-EDM 1st and Bystedt for Maveric Lamoureux (Likely an overpay but need to give Utah a reason to move him, they get a big C prospect to replace Geekie and a trade chip to improve the NHL roster)

Let's save that powder for acquiring defensemen. The Sharks have too many forwards as it is.

Sign (rounding up AFP's "worst tax state" projections):
-Dante Fabbro 3x4M

Grier could have had him for free; don't think there is interest

-Alex Iafallo 3x4M
-Nick Bjugstad 2x4.5M

Why sign two more 4th line forwards?

-Alex Lyon 2x2M

Sure

The sharks should try to get Dougie Hamilton out of New Jersey, and maybe take on a contract like Korpisalo in exchange for picks.

Lamoureux is a defenseman. I think you may be confusing him with Bourque's son. Same first name but spelled differently.

There may be. The Sharks were linked to Fabbro the previous trade deadline 2 years ago (granted due to Quinn).

REPORT: Sharks Interested in Fabbro?

Could the San Jose Sharks be gearing up for another trade? Reportedly, the team is interested in acquiring Dante Fabbro. The 24-year-old defenseman was selected 17th-overall by the Nashville Predators in the 2016 NHL Draft. Sharks head coach David Quinn knows the 6-foot-0 right-hander well. In...

I'll amend it: Let's save that powder for an established, good defenseman...

I get that Lamoreux is a giant. But he's put up very underwhelming numbers in his career, and even his AHL numbers don't inspire much awe.

 

[SjMilhouse]

You're probably right about Marchment. Maybe throw in Colorado's or even our own 2026 2nd?

I figure Utah is set on the right side for a while with Durzi, Kesselring and Marino. Maybe they're better off using Lamoureux in a trade for an established NHL center but this feels like good value for him. He's not exactly killing it in the AHL.

My read as the resident Utah fan is they aren't looking for futures. They need young, win now pieces

Okay okay we’ll give them Barclay Goodrow.
