Recalled/Assigned: Sharks roster moves 2019-20: 3/7 Knyzhov and DeSimone recalled

[PacificOceanPotion]

He's now back in the Barracuda lineup after off and on healthy scratches, but it's because they are trying him out as a fourth line right wing.

YIKES...

 

[Hobocop]

So he is useless and the team is trying to figure out a way to salvage a wasted pick?

I mean it feels more like "We have no forwards left since they've all been called up and we're not really using Roy much. Let's just throw him out there and see what happens."

Well you don't really do that to someone that is usefull at the position that he was drafted in especially when just a few years ago he was seen as the sharks best defensive prospect.

Nick Petrecki all over again.

Nick Petrecki all over again.

Remember when it looked like our defensive prospect pool was looking far better than it was back in the Petrecki/Doherty days?

Well yeah, obviously.

I'm just saying it doesn't seem like they're trying to salvage him, he was just basically the only guy sitting around doing nothing here.

Nick Petrecki all over again.

He tore the same ACL twice before turning pro. Him making it to the NHL became a long shot after the second surgery.

Our 2 most hyped D prospects at the time.

I remember when he was a borderline top 10 pick. Pretty unfortunate series of events for him.

Unlucky. That’s what happens when you’re drafted by the Sharks.

Ty Wishart was the guy. I'd do that deal to acquire Dan Boyle million times over though.

 

[Anomie2029]

In regards to Roy this is what I've read - Cuda were thin on forwards, and have a lot of D on the roster. Roy was in and out on a rotation - not playing bad but not really impressing to be a staple Dman. Pushed him forward as he had the better characteristics to move there of the fringe Dmen.

Ofcoarse Ty was bust city and used him as half the package to get boyle, Money move

 

[hockfan1991]

I guess we're not adding our 2 top 6 forwards that we needed since opening night rosters?!

Nope, we actually ended up only having 1 top 6 forward last few games.

When u comsider no couture,kane,hertl

Except on a garbage team he’s managed to consistently be a + player all season. Feels like more of a bunch of unqualified idiots running the Cuda ship than anything. Not sure there’s a less qualified coaching staff at any level of professional hockey than the gong show behind the bench of the Cuda.

My Takeaway. Sharks will have 4 3rd lines next year...

 

[Hobocop]

Might be better suited for the prospect or Barracuda thread, but was reading this article too. I agree with just about all of it. This is a really good read for anyone who hasn't been paying attention to the Barracuda.

Only surprised these scouts are so down on Meloche and Gambrell. I've liked some of what I've seen from Meloche, and he's definitely not below-AHL caliber like one of these guys is saying.

 

[KarlssonsGroin]

Nick Petrecki all over again.

nah Petrecki was just bad. Injuries ruined Roys chances

 

[SactoShark]

DW is a salesman. He knows he's going to have to convince some other GM to buy his word over scouts and that's why he's always pimping his late round gems.

Bergman and letunov recalled to nhl.

Bergman and letunov recalled to nhl.

Bergmann seems to have found his game a bit in the AHL over the past few weeks. Interested to see how he does this time around with the big club after being pretty putrid in his first stint.

Well we did move Patty and Goodrow. Need more bodies anyway.

100% agree and think that he is the right guy to call up. Just curious to see how he does. Would really like him to show an ability to stick around as I would love to have his size/speed combo on the 4th line going into next year. A 4th line of Gregor-True-Bergmann would be a nice look (assuming True can keep up with those speedier wingers). Fits the modern game of size/speed/physical play blended with some skill as well.
