Scared at the potential return...

Please be Wilson

 

[InjuredChoker]

did they watch him in playoffs?

or even during the regular season?

sharks are happy to get rid of him.

LOL what a day.

 

[Avs_19]

Solid player for the most part but definitely not the type of defenseman I was expecting. Hopefully they didn't give up too much.

 

[Drury_Sakic]

Not a horrible addition if the price is right, maybe the Avs trade a 4th liner.

 

[PAZ]

I'll like it as long as it was Sharks dumping him.

 

[AvsRobin]

It's like Canucks dumping Garrisson for a 2nd, or Pitt dumping Michalek to Phoenix for nothing situation I'm hoping.

Major upgrade here but hopefully a very cheap price.

Hearing #SJSharks have traded D Brad Stuart to COL for draft picks. One veteran willing to go as he had NTC.

Sharks fans are so happy he's gone. That's always good to see.

WTF do you mean draft "picks"? As in plural? As in more than one? As in multiple?

Hearing #SJSharks getting a 2nd rd. pick in 2016 and 6th round pick in 2017 back from Colorado for Brad Stuart

Not thrilled, but at least it is just futures.

They really have no clue.

Jesus. **** this. We suck at this.

 

[Ceremony]

2nd and a 6th? When Josh Gorges went for a 2nd? Well then.

It's in 2016 but still, a 2nd for Stuart? Why? Oh well.

Stuart is on the last year of his deal but I'd much rather have Gorges.

 

[The Pwnerer]

Why are we again sending out so many draft picks....

Little high but not horrible.

 

[CalderKing21]

Roy really needs to stop trading. This is ridiculous. Even if it's in 2016, you do not trade a damn 2nd for Stuart. WTF was he thinking? Jesus.

 

[InjuredChoker]

the moment when you realize when your management isn't smart..

 

[henchman21]

They really have no clue.

Or they don't put stock into 2nd+ round picks.

 

[Lonewolfe2015]

I give up.

I'm checking out today. This is on par with adding Brooks Orpik, might even be worse considering we gave up good assets for Stuart.

I hate Stuart, he's a POS and a massively declining poor defender. Yet we gave up a 2nd and 6th for him. Lost Stastny. Still playing hardball with ROR. Couldn't get Ehrhoff.

Trusting Sakic/Roy is incredibly difficult when everything they do goes against what I believe in. Hell, I'd have added Gorges far sooner than Stuart for that price.

 

[AvsRobin]

Uhhh the 2nd stings a bit
