Best of luck, Blackwood. Rebuild your value, but it's gonna be hard

He started off strong but hasn't looked as good the past couple of seasons.

Not really voodoo with him, just can’t get healthy. Surgeries galore on his feet, groin, and mcl.

Great deal for SJ. No risk very high reward if Blackwood gets back on track

Vanecek and Schmid not a bad duo if that's the plan. I mean it's basically what they used most of last year

he looked good early on, but injuries have really derailed his career these past couple of years ... he's clearly talented, just can't stay healthy. Good gamble for the Sharks.

Not at all.

Execs around the league love Vladar’s technical ability. Blackwood is a reclamation project due to multiple lower body surgeries. Lots of goalies who have gone through what he has never get back to 100%.

These goalies are nothing alike for many reasons.

Blackwood is a RFA with a QO of $3.36M. NJ would have non-tendered him.

Yeah... that's a good point.


Would've walked at any rate. May as well take the late pick.
