[YP44]

I hope EA updates NHL 19 rosters haha

 

[TheSpecialist]

I heard 1st and Justin Braun included. We'll wait and see.

 

[Jets]

Goodnight HF! See you next week

 

[RABBIT]

 

[Canuck16]

Sharks are All In.

 

[Punchbowl]

What are the chances Eugene insisted SJ include Melker Karlsson in the deal in the hopes that Ottawa fans simply won't notice Erik is missing on opening night?

I hope EA updates NHL 19 rosters haha

DLC 49.99$ EK in SJ

 

[613Leafer]

So they gonna flip him to an Ottawa division rival like Hoffman? With Ottawa taking a worse trade return and then still having him in division?

 

[CupInSIX]

I love how these insiders tell us all this new inside info they were sitting on for 6 months...

 

[JT Kreider]

I hope EA updates NHL 19 rosters haha

Nope, gonna have to grind out some serious roster editing all night tonight

 

[The Macho King]

San Jose is contender now

Are they though? Maybe best team in the Pacific, but that's not a roster that shouts "Cup favorite" to me. I'd still have them comfortably behind Winnipeg or Nashville, and that's without knowing what's coming back to Ottawa.

 

[Magic Mittens]

Well on to Panarin

 

[Filthy Dangles]

If Ottawa doesn't get at least one of Tomas Hertl / Timo Meier / Ryan Merkeley.....f***ing RIP in pieces sens fans.....

 

[HomeAndHome]

Holy shit... RIP HF

 

[Lurkin Larkin]

I was here before the site went down

 

[ottomaddox]

I did it!

I broke this to HF!!!

 

[Devilsfan118]

Handsome bastard.

 

[Auston Marlander]

Called a Cali team getting him earlier this week. Glad it was the sharks

 

[stl76]

WOW.

Wonder what the return would be. Braun going back? Hertl? 2019 2nd? 2020 1st? Prospects/young players?

 

[Master P]

I really wana know what other teams were offering

 

[CupsOverCash]

So they gonna flip him to an Ottawa division rival like Hoffman? With Ottawa taking a worse trade return and then still having him in division?

Man I hope so. TB could make it worth their while.

 

[paine]

Shit.

 

[LetsGoBLUES91]

What assets do the Sharks have that they could do this? They are a good team but not a lot of good "future" assets. Unless they are literally giving the Sens the farm.

 

[BigFatCat999]

Oh yes... would be hilarious if they flip him elsewhere for more.

That's what I am waiting for. Also the cumulative comparisons of deals for both Hoffman and Karlsson

 

[bleedblue1223]

Let me say this in big letters for everyone:

Sens fans KNOW we won' get a return for this. We know we will get fleeced. Trading Karlsson right before training camp REEKS of Dorion (read: Melnyk) caving to an offer they previously thought was bad because "we need to get this done now".

But they don't "need to get it done now" they would have a far better return at the deadline if they wait it out.

Again: we expect a horrible return. No need to rub it in our faces and claim "LOL SENS FANS THOUGHT THEY'D GET THE WORLD FOR HIM!"

We don't. We are going to get fleeced. Badly.​

Yeah, it sucks. Just like our Pronger situation where our owner told our GM to trade him immediately to cut salary before selling the team.
