Would have been a good move for MTL....

 

[ExtremeColdWeather]

Nice August

 

[Dutronc]

Makes total sense. There's no better place for a young goalie to make his name in the big leagues than the worst team in the league.

Luongo vibes

 

[Boonk]

Holy shit, August is a crazy month

 

[amnesiac]

No chance.....

who says no?

 

[BobRossColton]

I'd go after eklund..

 

[EveryDay]

who says no?

SJ, I don't think Musty is available at all

 

[MaxDummy]

Gonna be a 1st top 5 protected

For a potential franchise goalie? this isnt Will Smith here

 

[TheBeard]

Grier knows he's beefed up the forwards and the defense both now and in the future. Askarov is 22. By the time he's 25-26 Sharks will be a major contender and he'll be in his prime.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Will Smith?

Keep his name out of your mouth!

I think you're going to be dissapointed to be honest

I wouldn't be surprised if it's Musty. He's got star talent but the attitude is scary. The wing version of Askarov?

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Bystedt id guess, closer to nhl ready

 

[Half Clapper]

Grier sucks! Awful GM! Trash organization! Am I doing this right?

So far his trades have not been good for the most part. Will see what this deal looks like.

No horse in this race.

Where are the Sharks D? They're loaded at F but they have very little on the blue line.

 

[amikaro]

Bystedt id guess

That would be awesome for the Sharks. I think they ask for more or their 1st.

 

[HugeInTheShire]

Shocked NJ was in this, if it was next year they'd be all over it but with Markstrom and Allen in the mix, doesn't make sense

 

[Brodeur]

With Celebrini and Smith signed, San Jose had some extra centers in Filip Bystedt, David Edstrom, and Cam Lund. Nashville previously dangled Askarov+ to try to get into the top 4 of the 2023 Draft for a center. On the Devils board, I wondered if Vegas' 1st + one of Bystedt/Edstrom/Lund could be the main components when Askarov's trade request became public.

 

[ponder719]

If things break alright, the Sharks are going to be FUN in a couple years.

 

[Captain Mountain]

When was the last time a week in August has had this much action?

Laine trade, two successful offer sheets, McGroarty/Yager trade and now Askarov? We feasting!

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Are Blackwood and Vaneck both healthy? I guess they could waive one or carry 3 goalies if they are.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Well if Askakrov wanted opportunity, he’s gonna get it at the sharks
