So either a trade or Eklund is out for awhile?
Not Cardwell?Guessing the second one.
It's as good a time as any to start giving guys a look, though. But the list of guys that I'd like to see get a post-deadline callup is much shorter than last season's, mostly due to injuries. It's basically Bordeleau, Gushchin and Todd.
I imagine we'll see more than one call-up by the weekend, although I'm a little surprised they didn't bring back Shakir with Emberson out.Not Cardwell?

Huh? When did that happen?I'd be fine with Cardwell getting a couple games too, but his play has dropped off a bit as the season's gone on. He's nowhere near as noticeable since the new year. Probably just the long season wearing on him.
Muk's hurt.
That's disappointing. Earlier this season he seemed like the only young Cuda forward with any sort of NHL future even if it's likely as a fourth liner.I'd be fine with Cardwell getting a couple games too, but his play has dropped off a bit as the season's gone on.

I mean he's only 21 and it's still just his first year in the A after being an elite-ish scorer with Barrie. He's still had a decent year but I imagine the wear and tear of a more physical league with older players is taking its toll.That's disappointing.

Yeah don't get me wrong I would still pencil him into a future Sharks lineup over anyone else currently on the Barracuda outside of Shak who's injured anyway.I mean he's only 21 and it's still just his first year in the A after being an elite-ish scorer with Barrie.

No faith in Gush?Yeah don't get me wrong I would still pencil him into a future Sharks lineup over anyone else currently on the Barracuda outside of Shak who's injured anyway.
He looks like the classic "not skilled/consistent enough for top six, not multidimensional enough to play bottom six" forward. Also doesn't strike me as a Grier or Quinn player.No faith in Gush?

Put him in a #11 jersey and paint a shockingly high cheek beard drawing on him.Grier and DQ have a "you must be this tall to ride" sign outside the Sharks locker room. Tough luck for Gush.
