Confirmed Trade: [DET/SJS] Nyquist [30% Retained] for 2019 2nd, 2020 3rd

[Nashology]

I am fine without draft picks. Erik Karlsson, Evander Kane and Gustav Nyqvist in 12 months. That is an unreal haul, whether or not they retain all of them. With SJ's usual good work at keeping their assets I would imagine atleast 1 of EK and GN stay.

I'm guessing you quoted the wrong post?

Yes, I apparently did. Even though I hit quote on the post I meant...never change HFBoards

Wings picks:

2017: 11
2018: 10
2019: 10

Where does Gus play on SJ now? L2/PP2?

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

2020 3rd round pick that becomes a 2020 2nd if SJ signs Nyquist.

Or if the Sharks make it to the cup finals.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

That seems like a really crappy return then.

If the Sharks make it to the cup finals, Then it becomes a 2020 2nd as well. So all is not lost.

 

[DRW204]

was expecting/hoping a 1st for Nyquist, but i can see teams scoffing at his PO resume

 

[Intact]

Can we please live in the timeline that Commodore takes over for Bob Mckenzie when he retires?

I'm hoping for them to re-sign him cause I'm sure as hell not cheering for them to win a cup.

 

[Syckle78]

A Sharks SC win and Nyq re-sign in DET would be the ultimate win-win deal.

Dude no. The biggest win in this trade is he didn't get a giant holland retirement contract. Thank god he's not Michigan.

 

[Groo]

Mayve he likes SJ's playoff chances better then any other team, he was asked to waive for .

Face palm inserted here

Can I quote you on that?
Too funny

Personally, I think he would best fit with Hertl and Kane on the top line. They can mask his weaknesses while offering them creativity and playmaking ability.

If Martin Jones can start making saves, the Sharks will be the team to beat in the West.

 

[Lunatik]

Cause they have a core that’s consistently gone deep in the playoffs. Their window is now before Couture and little Joe are on the wrong side of 30. Don’t get me wrong I’m a fan of what the Jackets are doing.

they have a great core, but consistently gone deep in the playoffs? They've made it out of round 2 once in 8 years

Id like the sharks to grab Miller at some point today.... would be great for miller to get another shot at the cup... and would be a good vet presence behind jones

Pavelski is 34

 

[Flameshomer]

I think this was a great price to pay for SJ, added a top-6 winger for less than a 1st.

 

[hockfan1991]

It's amazing no matter what Wilson has done he hasn't won the big one. How come I feel the same this year.

Because your disappointed mr tierney is nothing more then a middle sixer and DeMelo is nothing but bottom pairing

And thank you to the Karlsson trade this is the best opportunity we have had.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

Sharks need Stone now to put this thing out of reach.

 

[Lolaimbot]

Pavelski is 34

He's talking about Thornton.

 

[Kranix]

He's talking about Thornton.

He said little joe

 

[WaW]

.

Oof. A fraud? He’s a good player who’s had a bad luck in terms offense the last two years. He’s a perimeter player who’s played the opposite of that because of how he’s been utilized.

This year coincidentally playing with Larkin as a perimeter player has allowed him to be more affective at his role. I suspect SJ fans will like him and see my pov.

Shame some Wings fans don’t see that.

It's not that I don't think he's talented. It's that on principle I have a really hard time believing in guys who have career years this late into their careers on a contract year. So yeah I think his numbers are fraudulent and especially at his age, I would say the last two seasons will be a more accurate representation of what to expect going forward than this one. I could end up being wrong but we'll have to wait and see.

Regardless of what either of us thinks about him, one thing we should be able to agree on is that his contract like in basically every other negotiation ever, will be heavily based on this year and as a result he'll probably get something like 6x6 or something crazy like that. This is why I'm skeptical.

 

[LarKing]

Really wanted a 1st but meh I guess I’m okay with this.

 

[The Red Line]

He's talking about Thornton.

No he said little Joe, and implied that he's under 30. Thornton is even older than Pavelski, so your quote makes even less sense.
