Confirmed Trade: [OTT/SJ] Erik Karlsson and Francis Perron for Tierney, DeMelo, Norris, Balcers, 1st, 2nd, cdnl picks

[HomeAndHome]

Very underwhelming at first look at the return...

 

[Ivan13]

Safe to assume this is an unextended Karlsson at this point?

It's still horrendous.

 

[Sureves]

Nah fam. Sorry, but there were plenty of fans in your base on this board saying the cost from TB would be Point+Sergachev. Several of them.

Would be? Or SHOULD be?

I think everyone and their mother agrees this return from San Jose was absolute shit and should not have been accepted. But it's what we expected it WOULD be.

San jose: "We will give you a bottom pairing defenseman and a bottom 6 forward + an AMAZING ahler + an extra late 2nd round pick in 2019 + a jumbo extra special super pick in either 2019 or 2020 + On top of all that, JOSH FREAKING NORRIS."

Melnyk: "We accept" (giggles to himself)

How do I like this post more than once?

 

[JT Kreider]

Wow, the return for Ryan McDonagh was stronger. This is nuts.

Bro the return for Rick Nash was stronger

 

[razkaz]

Just speechless on that return lol

 

[GoJetsGo55]

I......I actually think this could end the franchise. They said they had less than 4000 season tickets sold and Melnyk is always walking around with his pockets folded out. Who's going to go to these games?

 

[WJCJ]

He had to have refused to re-sign right? Right? Wow.

Just hand Wilson the GM of the Year Award now.

Something fishy is going on with Dorion and the Sharks

First he trades Hoffman to SJ when many other teams could have beating that.

Then he trades Karlsson to SJ when almost every other team could have offered more.

Hmmm...

He doesnt want the responsibility of trading star players to a east team.

 

[GoldiFox]

Ottawa didn't even get rid of Bobby Ryan in the deal...

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Fire up the Mark Stone threads, and dust off the Duchene ones.

Hell yeah. There’s a new Chiarelli in town.

 

[Nick Hansen]

The NHL should step in and block this trade if true...

 

[Daisy Jane]

that return... doesn't sound sexy

 

[DolanPlsGoSabres]

What happens to Buffalo's pick?

 

[spintheblackcircle]

nm..

 

[Tecumseh]

Worst trade since Gretzky

The Oilers at least won the Cup the year after they traded away Gretzky. The Sens would be lucky to sniff 30 wins this year.

 

[Sombastate]

what...

 

[Breakers]

Josh Norris is NOT that good of prospect

Collusion.

I remember when people were excited about Dorion taking over and how amazing he was going to be.

 

[Tysonson3]

Plot twist: Dorion has a back room deal with Karlsson to sign him July 1st

 

[bauer]

one of the worst returns i've ever seen for a player of Karlsson's caliber. if he extends in San Jose it could be the worst trade ever.

 

[Martinez]

Sharks held onto merkley and Chmelevski. Wow

 

[Ishad]

So who is San Jose trading Karlsson to?

 

[Seatoo]

OMEGALUL

 

[No Fun Shogun]

*attempts to make same trade on NHL18*

*PS4 blows up*

Huh....
