[Zacha37]

Devils fan coming in peace. You guys did well, I really like all the guys we moved. I really hope it pays off for both teams and finally we can end all the arguing lol.

 

[OffSydes]

They don't own any other teams first so its nothing like higher/lower of the two

 

[seroes]

What's the 2024 1st condition? That's going to decide how I feel

 

[Nighthock]

Randy Hahn sweating looking at this trade... quite the mouth full

 

[Juxtaposer]

Devils fans, please let us mourn in peace.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Leafs making it to the 2nd round.

This is hilarious that you posted this in the Sharks board you lurker!

Courtesy of @Guadana who is very knowledgeable about prospects, especially Russians. Here he has an excellent breakdown of some of Shakir’s play in the KHL this season. Give it a watch. He might be a really good one.

 

[one2gamble]

Two late firsts, and some meh.

Grier better nail those picks

 

[Alaskanice]

For all the minute by minute b.s. going on here, I love the haul that Grier got. So many of you just spouting vitriol. We have our own young kids and now more.

 

[goonybird]

Zetterlund is a fantastic 3rd liner who can fill in higher if injuries happen
Shakir is a great prospect
Okhotyuk is a fine bottom pairing but absolutely bone crunching defender

Enjoy them. They were cherished.

 

[Captain3rdLine]

Muk- solid top 4 prospect doing well in the KHL and expected to come over at the end of the season

Okhotiuk- NHL ready D prospect, unlikely to be much more than a solid 5/6 but will be a fan favorite with the way he plays, fast skater who absolutely runs guys over all over the ice

Zetterlund- solid middle 6 forward who plays the right way at both ends of the ice. Good hands and shot and built like a tank. Could turn into a solid top 6 player for a while for SJS

Yeah depending on the condition this seems a good deal for both sides. I think the angst was mostly caused by the order of the pieces coming out on twitter lol

 

[WTFetus]

So, screw Meier. We're all hoping NJ gets eliminated quick in the playoffs so Sharks get a higher pick, right?

 

[Grinner]

A Faustian bargain in every sense

 

[Tw1ster]

Weird to see the displeasure here and the complete opposite on the mains commenting on Grier getting the return he got. I think it’s quite a decent return for a not extended Meier

 

[fasterthanlight]

So how about that contract limit? aren't we way over it? Who is the 3rd team? Did we instantly trade Zetterlund for more picks?

Of course.

 

[one2gamble]

I feel like that's to many contracts on the sharks side but I haven't looked in awhile. Weren't they at max?

Isn't it just the finalists who go 2nd to last and last? I'm obviously hoping for the devils to completely drop out but if they make the finals I'll root for timo.

 

[Patty Ice]

The more optimistic Sharks fans right now:

They were at 49. They would be one over now. Unless there’s something else going on the only thing I could think of would be that Muk’s doesn’t count right now because he’s in the KHL still

 

[TF1970]

Mukhamadullin is gonna be a good one IMO.

 

[WTFetus]

Per wiki

1. The teams that did not qualify for the playoffs the previous season (picks 1–16)
2. The teams that made the playoffs in the previous season but did not win either their division in the regular season or play in the Conference Finals (picks 17–24 up to 28)
3. The teams that won their divisions in the previous season but did not play in the Conference Finals (potentially picks 25–28)
4. The teams that lose in Conference Finals (picks 29 and 30)
5. The team that was the runner-up in the Stanley Cup Finals (pick 31)
6. The team that won the Stanley Cup in the previous season (pick 32)

So rooting for Carolina to keep the Division lead too.

Pretty much no way this works well for the sharks unless one of the picks hit, and that shouldnt be attributed to the trade.

 

[OffSydes]

What does the eyebrow game look like on the players the Sharks got? With Timo gone we are lacking
