Aww, I was looking forward to possible poaching opportunities if we could trade Savard for something shiny.
Oh well. I guess we'll just have to stick with our blueline as is.
I promise you, there is only one emotion that you should feel about this. And it’s very happy.
Same goes for 30 other NHL teams. You should all be ecstatic that the Sharks just signed one of the worst players in the NHL to a 2-year contract.
He has no exceptional skill and arguably no good hockey skill. Very, at best, average skillset. He also has the poise of a goldfish.Can you elaborate? What’s the knock on him? I don’t know the player well at all but his numbers are decent and he’s pretty young for a defender. Was surprised they didn’t qualify him. Just to avoid the possibility of arb. I guess?
Shark fans irrationally hate on him.
Watching him make mistake after mistake after mistake all year long and yet watching Debor still throw him out there every game over Heed whom many sharks fans feel is a better option than Demalo is irrational? Demalo was terrible last year. We have a better option in Heed in house. Re signing Demalo means Heed will sit in the press box most nights again if not traded. That seems like a pretty rational reason to dislike this signing.
We hate on Pete playing him 9ver better options....hell he was put out as the extra man in a playoff game...I mean come on!Shark fans irrationally hate on him.
Excellent deal, wish Dubas matched that.
