Confirmed Trade: [OTT/SJS] William Eklund, Kasper Halttunen, Brandon Svoboda for 2026 FLA 1st round pick (9th overall)

[LeProspector]

That guarantees Stenberg to San Jose, then.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

Eklund and Stutzle will looks good together !!

yep. better than Brady ever had.

You literally don't even know the return yet.

If it’s anything like the rumoured return woof

 

[Sensmileletsgo]

Our management is obsessed with big d-men who can’t play hockey. Spence played fantastic when he was given too 4 minutes.

Previous management was. Staois traded for Jensen and Spence, neither are big Dmen

 

[Ryder71]

Sharks picking Stenberg?

If they're smart they will. I thought it was a forgone conclusion.

Edit: Trade was announced 1 post before this and my post was "We dont know the return yet". lol

 

[kanucks25]

Spence ain't worth Eklund lol.

Well that's your opinion but you've offered nothing to dispute my reasoning

This offseason rules

 

[KniesMadeBradyCry]

Yep it’s bad lmao wow

I’m guessing the Sharks had their eye on someone in the 2nd draft tier that they wanted to move down to get, but nobody wanted to pay to move up, so SJ is doing this to get him. Gonna be a fun draft for the SJ front office.

Sharks would be crazy. Eklund is a Stankoven type who goes 100% all the time, digs in the corners, forechecks, backchecks anc kills penalties. These playoffs showed you need this type of guy.

Eklund is really good at puck retrieval. That's about it. He's a poor shooter, a poor passer, and lacks vision. But, a change of scenery and reuniting him with Zetts can ignite him.

 

[TLEH]

A lot to pay for Eklund imo.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

yeah, you posted the same as the post right above you. nice try.

 

[TommyDangles]

Wow they really got the 9th for Eklund.

Big W for Grier

 

[Gizmokov]

Not bad really. Now does SJS flip it?

 

[Brain Crush]

I was told Ottawa got nothing for Tkachuk.

And I already know Steph Curry is a good shooter.

It's an immense downgrade.

 

[luiginb]

Love it as a Sharks fan. Hope we draft Stenberg and Rudolph

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Oh look another thread of "Sens interested for winger X"

Can we just put this into a megathread until something more concrete comes out? This is like two threads a day at this point

Ok fine, I'll allow it this time

 

[Vukotal Recall]

Really good for both teams, I like it

 

[1specter]

Wtf? What's the point of this

 

[Static]

God damnit Ottawa, wrong underachieving forward!

 

[Zarzh]

I don't really hate it. Stenberg and Smits would be a fun draft.
