AP: expect a "wild" western conference race.

SHARP SHARKS

San Jose, which joined the league in 1991, advanced to the Stanley Cup finals for the first time last season. The Sharks pushed Pittsburgh to Game 6 before its speed proved to be too much to handle. The Sharks showed they have some of the best players on the planet at the World Cup with Couture, Joe Thornton, Brent Burns and Marc-Edouard Vlasic helping Canada win the title against Team Europe and one of their new teammates, Mikkel Boedker. The Sharks signed the forward to a four-year, $16 million deal on Day 1 of free agency.

Following in the footsteps of Magnus Paajarvi.

Zach Pochiro and a conditional pick.

I guess Yakupov for pretty much nothing

Speculation is that the Oilers will spend the money saved on a defensive upgrade, speculated to be Kris Russell. My goodness.

[hohosaregood]

I'd call it an overall downgrade if they get Russell.

 

[TimAllen]

Oh my god it's actually happening. 3.1 Million for Russell. Well, it looks like the league still doesn't have to worry about the Oilers for the next few years.

Well close a prospect and a conditional draft pick

 

[hohosaregood]

Well close a prospect and a conditional draft pick

Pochiro's a 22 year old ECHLer so I ain't expecting much period. Wasn't sure what the draft pick was when I commented but a possible 2nd/3rd is okay I guess.
