GDT: Trade deadline: 4/3 noon PT

[hateseed]

I think this is a mistake, with the D woes of several diff teams (Wings anyone?) this season, the market on serviceable D is really terrible. Probably easier to move Burns back and get a forward or 2 (2/3rd liner and 4th liner). But then again, he's the GM, and I do mostly approve of everything he has done since McGinn

 

[Hatrick Marleau]

I guess he is looking for a depth Dman/Forward.

 

[hockeyball]

May mean Demers is out longer than expected too, serious concussion maybe.

Not sure who he would go after, you have to think it would be someone who can skate and plays on the left side... Ian White will still be my pick.

 

[KirbyDots]

From what he said IE "couple little things", think he gets a d and will try to get a young winger if possible. He mentioned the thing earlier about young players instead of picks, think he flips at least a pick or two.

 

[ramstoria]

He also said a couple "little things" might be added. So D depth and maybe an emergency forward? We'll probably see a couple of the draft picks we got yesterday moved out. We have a decent amount of cap space this year, so even though DW said no rentals, maybe we'll see one.

 

[hockeyball]

He would never say it, but wouldn't be surprised if he's looking to replace Greiss and doesn't trust Stalock or something.

 

[Hatrick Marleau]

DW said you need 8-9 capable defenseman in the playoffs.

What difference does it make. It's not like our backups are going to see any games at all this year.

White would be good, he knows the team, would replace Demers if he's out long term.

PollakOnSharks 8:59am via Web Keith Jones, Mike Milbury on TSN giving #SJSharks GM Wilson high praise for addition by subtraction on those three recent deals.

Anyone else a little worried that Milbury thinks we made good trades?

 

[Hatrick Marleau]

As long as we keep our 1st 2nds and 3rd I'll be happy.

 

[glasgow26]

I really like Burmistrov out of Winnipeg, and apparently they're shopping him pretty hard. If DW is looking to add a young forward, he's a good option. Wonder what the asking price is.

Nah, we should trade those for players+ 6th and 7th round picks. That's our money maker right there.

I don't mind trading them for young players but not for a rental.

We'd have to give up a lot for him. He's not gonna be cheap.

I would love Kulikov but he will probably be way too expensive too

[Eid Ma Clack Shaw]

[KirbyDots]

[LadyStanley]

DarrenDreger 9:20am via Twitter for BlackBerry® Boston trades Maxime Sauve to Chicago for rob Flick. First trade!!!! #tradecentre




LeBrun: Sharks close to acquiring Hannan (former Shark).

 

[ramstoria]

Scott Hannan... **** me

 

[Timo Time]

Scott Hannan...

 

[magic school bus]

Hannan for a mid round pick? Dammit.

 

[glasgow26]

Hannan? Didn't expect that at all. Hopefully it doesn't cost us more than a 5th.

 

[SharksAddict]

Not sure if want.

Do not want but they need the depth.

 

[AnderFunk]

Noooooo not hannan!
