f***ing golden

You are a true HF Sharks treasure.

Why thank y-

...hold on, I've been informed that I'm being traded.

 

[undercovernerd]

Side note: we need greenway to protect the kids next year. Makes sense.

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

Are we allowed to riot if zetterlund is the main piece?

 

[McDuffz88]

Did any of you guys really expect a Hughes, Nemec, Mercer type return? Because a return like that is unprecedented in NHL history for a RFA. Just saying....if you wouldn't trade a RFA for a recent 2OA draft pick then you're to far gone.

Yes. Except he won’t be.

I think it should be supported.

FOR JORDAN GREENWAY??

 

[STL Shark]

Not a main piece. Guessing Blackwood because salary has to change hands from the NJD side to make things work.

Literally get the f*** out of here.

No we're expecting the deal to be a 1st+Zetterlund. Go back to your forum to celebrate

New to the boards, but if Holtz or better (Nemec, Mercer) is not included than Grier is dreadful at his job.

His resume was 4 years as a scout, 2 years an assistant coach and a year as a hockey ops advisor. It was a bad hire and the sharks continue to fall back on nepotism instead of doing a thorough search and going outside of the organization. It’s bizarre. I can’t believe Nabby still has a job to be honest.

A rebuilding team would trade Timo, a competing team wouldn't.

Give Grier a Chance: First Thoughts on New Sharks GM

Grier:
“We’re not looking to tear this down, like Arizona or some teams have done in the past. Yes, there are some challenges with the salary cap, but I think the majority of the league is dealing with the flat cap, and they have their issues. So for us, we’re not looking to rebuild”

Grier is either lying or incompetent.

This doesn't mean that there isn't more (I'm hoping). If it's zetterlund + 1st + something minor, that would be a very bad return lol

Thanks for stopping by(e).

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

Idk. Holtz, Mercer, or nemec are apparently not included.

There’s nothing else NJ has to be the main piece unless it’s multiple firsts.

 

[Patty Ice]

Sucks to be Zetterlund because he's an asset to have but he is going to be torn apart and mocked.

Edit: on second thought. Not really. He gets to make a lot of money playing a game. Who the f*** cares what some nerds on computers think.

He can be an incompetent liar.

No duh. It would also go against everything that’s already been rumored and discussed by actual sources rather than the bulk of the people that are dunces on here. Seravalli literally tweeted out deals that Grier turned down that would be better than this. Not sure why people think as moronically as they do.

 

[Juxtaposer]

Oh boy, Andreas Johnsson.

 

[Desert Eagle]

1:44 AM on the clock. I gotta be on the job in 7 hours. And it would be nice to sleep a bit.
Tick tock..

4:19 AM, I`m done.
Best of luck to all of us with this trade

Or… you know… circumstances can change when you actually lay eyes on your roster and full organization outside of your opening press conference the first day on the job. I know that’s too nuanced for most people here.

Oh boy, Andreas Johnsson.

Salary cap reasons. Makes total sense and we will get an asset for taking on his money.

 

[ISharkted]

So Timo = 1st (got that), A/B tweener prospect (Zetterlund), and one A level prospect = Muk or Holtz incoming.

The 50% retention should be another 1st correct? I am guessing Harrington is a 7th / contract slot filler but retention has significant value unless the Muk or Holtz “A” or 1st pick gets upgraded further with retention, no?

 

[Sharkz4Fun]

I would've rather had my heart broken in 5 seconds than over the course of an entire day.
