Guschin would be a terrible fit there given neither he nor Duclair are playmakers, but rather shoot first second and third types. That's why I have Barabanov up there with Duclair. I also don't see Guschin making the roster and the Sharks just waiving Kunin, Lindblom, and Labanc to have $10M being scratched or playing for the Cuda.
I agree with ya . It’s a fun idea to have his skill paired with Hertl and Duclair. And if Guschin outplays Kunin, Lindblom and Labanc, which I think he can, just trade them for whatever you can.
Labanc i feel like has been shopped for 2 years now and nobody else wants him either. Lindholm i am sure would not be picked up even on waivers.
As pro-Gushchin as I am, I don't see him getting top line winger out of this camp. I'll be surprised if they have him make the team. Grier doesn't seem to have a favorable outlook on the prospects of the old regime outside of Eklund to some degree. My guess is more veterans higher in the lineup to try and extract some value at the trade deadline.
I get they may be extremely hard to move, but both Labanc/Hoffman in the top 6 would be pretty inexcusable, tanking or not. There's a higher chance of Eklund/Gushchin becoming irritated with the organization than there is either of those two cans extracting higher than a 5th rounder.
If Eklund and Gushchin show that they can earn it, the Sharks will rush to play them over Labanc (who the organization is clearly fed up with) and Hoffman (who's obviously a declining player). Maybe in the past, they didn't play Eklund because they wanted his contract to slide, but this season if they can play, they will.
Labanc in the top six seems the least likely out of the two to me given his drop with the current management. But if he's not dealt on the 15th for Myers, I don't see what else they can do. If they end up benching him for stretches of the season, they only make certain that they should've just bought him out when they had the chance.
My work calls it "ATO" for Accrued Time Off. Obviously to avoid confusion with the NHL.

ATO > PTOObviously!
i work for the state on salary. PTO is not unlimited but has a cap at like 590 hrs. If you don’t use it you can cash it out once a year
….They tax the hell out of it though
We have unlimited PTO at the company I work for. It's merely a way to cap risk.
May be mistaken, but I think they're using "PTO" and "vacation" interchangeably here. "Unlimited PTO" essentially meaning there is no cap on how much vacation time you can accrue, and I guess at the caveat that you can't cash it out when you retire. As opposed to having a set cap of how much vacation you can accrue, any extra gets cashed out annually, and you get paid for any leftover when you retire.
I would be shocked if this is legal (at least in the US and certainly in CA). I've done payroll before, and the law is that you have to pay out accrued PTO (but not sick time), no matter what.
So, the key phrase is "you have to get your work done or covered by someone else."
