Comprehensive Team Transactions Guide - Who improved? Who Regressed?

cant wait for that 0-1 loss to you guys on the home opener with that defense you guys have

We're bringing back the trap!

Hey the last time we won the cup our coaching philosophy was to win games 0-0.

I just saw the news of the Steve Stamkos and Tyler Toffoli signings. Good Lord...!

Stamkos is passing his prime and will now make $8 million / year on a club that won't be gifting him PP chances much anymore. Maybe he has a season or two of productive play with 25 goals or something, but those last two years are going to have some serious stank on them (I predict a buy-out).

Stamkos, last season, scored 1 more ES point than Oilers' defenceman Mattias Eckholm. And he doesn't play defence...

Okay, so that one is going to hurt Nashville. But the Tyler Toffoli one... Holy crap, this is staggering.

Why are we not going to be gifting him chances on the PP? Our PP was 16th last year and god awful in the playoffs. We need Stamkos to be a no.2 C and a power play specialist. I seriously doubt we will need to buy him out four years from now.

You think Nashville won’t be trying to feed Stamkos PP chances?!?

probably...at the expense of Forsberg

$24 million over four seasons with the lowly Sharks... Yeah, because an aging, so-so sniper is just what that franchise needs to devote its cap-space to.

What in the hell are they thinking?? Yeah, the guy has had a few very strong goal-scoring seasons (mixed in with a bunch more mediocre or forgettable ones), but he's 32 years old and has never played for a really bad team.


Anyway, Toffoli and Stamkos both should be giving very big Christmas presents to their respective agents this Christmas... like, Rolls Royces.

The Sharks need to spend money to get to the cap floor. They also need to fill spots. Toffoli is aware of what he’s getting himself into, it’s not like the first day of training camp he’s gonna walk into the dressing room and go “wtf! We’re rebuilding??? I didn’t sign up for this shit!”

You can do much worse as a rebuilding team trying to spend your money than signing a veteran goal scorer who’s won a Stanley Cup
