You realize that those 1st round picks are going to be at best the 25th pick...Most likes 29-31. That's basically a 2nd..

I am a very big supporter of the Sharks and it could very easily be the 29-31 pick. But they could just as easily be eliminated in the first round. Which puts it as a mid round pick.

It is the NHL. No one is guaranteed anything.

Interesting trade though. Thank god they didn't take Bobby

EK overated defenseman. hell ottawa gave more for duchene than they got back for EK. and at the end of this yr he is walking after this trade. why did this take so long to get done.

Tierney is the only one with any NHL experience. The deal is all futures with no return for the now. This trade is Seguin level bad.

Demelo is not half bad either. He was on the big squad last year. Dont mind his game.

Young seguin vs declining Karlsson. Very different scenarios.

So Ottawa gets: 2nd round pick in 2019. 1st round pick in 2020. 2nd round in 2021 should he resign.
(outside of a few conditions happening which are lower probabilities, like Sharks making the SCF or trading Karlsson before the end of next season to an Eastern conference team, or not making the playoffs this year)...
Chris Tierney (ok 2nd liner)
Dylan DeMelo (Ok 2nd pairing dman)
Josh Norris (B prospect)
Rudolfs Balcers (B- prospect, 23g, 48points in the AHL last year at 21 years of age)

I think it's okayyyyyyy for Ottawa, but they should've gotten Hertl or Meier in my opinion instead of Norris or Tierney. I guess the key is the picks, and one of Norris/Balcers developing into a top 9 forward.

As a Flames fan, this sucks hot nuts.

Cap freindly says Ottawa gets the 2019 first if the Sharks miss the playoffs.

Now we all know that ain't going to happen, but it's interesting.

Now this team needs to get up n da standings so Colorado has a slightly less of a chance at 1st overall. Get a new owner n break ground on a new arena. Trade off assets at the trade deadline n draft ur future. New owner team n arena hopefully n time for the expansion

I will officially burn my Senators jersey when I get home. Won't attend another game or spend another cent in support of that corksoaker Melnyck.

The backlash is coming Eugene. You have no idea.

You'll be sellign by the end of the season.

So the Sharks have

Thornton, Pavelski, Couture, Kane, Hertl, Meier, etc up front


Karlsson, Burns, Vlasic, Braun, Dillon, etc on the back end


Jones in net




Granted that Thornton is now a fossil and Pavelski is up there too...but damn.

i think it's lottery protected from the Kane deal, so Buffalo would get the 1st the following season then and Ottawa this season if the Sharks somehow miss the playoffs.



Could be wrong though

While I think the deal is awful for Ottawa, this still doesnt make SJ one of top 3 teams in the league IMO.

You type out “Colorado” instead of “CO” and you typed out “1st overall” instead of “1OA”. It blows my (frank)ing mind you couldn’t type out “a” and “d” around “n” a total of five separate times.

Im surprised Dorion didnt add in a "Duchene/Hughes clause" .

-If Ottawa gives up the 1st overall pick, then SJ must send Ottawa a 4th round pick
