O'Regan eh?

Rodrigues-Eichel-ORegan rides again

 

[truthbluth]

No picks in this draft is a pretty big whiff imo.

 

[tsujimoto74]

The picks being in 2019 and 2020 is pretty disappointing.

 

[Endless Ike]

This rebuild will last for 1,000 years

 

[Buffaloed]

There's some reports that the 1st is also conditional

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

specifics have left me feeling underwhelmed

 

[BUCKSHOT]

1st rounder Lottery protected ?

 

[kirby11]

Not a fan of the 1st being next year and lottery protected

 

[sabresfan129103]

At this rate it's gonna be 2025 before this team makes the playoffs.

The first is reportedly lottery protected. Doesn’t that mean it goes to the Sabres this year if the Sharks make the playoffs (and goes to the Sabres next year if the Sharks miss)?

 

[pigpen65]

Definitely not a big enough return to justify keeping him this long into the season. Hopefully JBotts learns from this. Build a team, don't collect players. Take the trash to the curb before it starts to stink. Lehner's next.

 

[MackAttack26]

Even if lottery protected, that first could be decently high. I expect SJ to possibly start falling off after this year.

Called the O'Regan part! Missing the Heed and cap dump part I gussed.

Overall, it could have been a lot worse. Not loving it, but I am satisfied.

Botterill is the most underwhelming man in the world.

 

[Intermission]

whelp
that'll do

The first is reportedly lottery protected. Doesn’t that mean it goes to the Sabres this year if the Sharks make the playoffs (and goes to the Sabres next year if the Sharks miss)?

I think the fear is that it's a 2019 pick that goes to 2020 if the Sharks don't make the playoffs NEXT year.

Which means we should have an impact player from that pick approximately.....never.

 

[DazedandConfused]

I must be in the minority, I like the deal.

 

[Chainshot]

Pick in 2019 is lottery protected.

 

[gallagt01]

O'Regan should help Rochester right now, yes?

 

[Sabre Dance]

Not sure why people care about it being next year. A 1st is a 1st, probably be around the same position.

I hoped for a better prospect. The return was about pretty much the lowest acceptable return. So Botterill didn't strike out with this trade, it's an ok trade.

 

[truthbluth]

Condition is bad. This is a f***ing terrible return for a f***ing terrible GM of a f***ing terrible organization.

 

[Rasmus CacOlainen]

I must be in the minority, I like the deal.

Whats there to like? The pick in 2019 or the one in 2020? Forever in rebuild? O'Reagan has 1 goal in the NHL at 24.

Here's the condition of the first-round 2019 pick in the Evander Kane deal: if the Sharks re-sign Kane, it's a first; but if Kane walks into free agency, it's a second-round pick in 2019

AJHAHAHAHAXHHAXHAXHAXHAXH BOTTS WHAT THE f*** DID YOU DOOO????

 

[CrazyPsycho]

And its a 2nd rd pick....only a first if Kane signs in SJ
