Having trouble seeing what pieces fit. SJ is light on prospects, and no 1st this year.


Might be quantity over quality here.

Why wouldn't he think they should still play the games? He's just predicting that they'll be the best team in the division. Frankly, it's not an unreasonable prediction. You could already make the argument that they have a shot at winning the division, and then you're adding a game-changing player to their already good lineup. This is concerning.

I'm still a little surprised Colorado isn't in the conversation a bit more...

Coversation probably starts with Ottawa’s 2019 Pick and Colorado probably doesn’t want to move that knowing it has the chance to be Hughes.

I always thought Vancouver was going to land Karlsson. Or Dallas. Hopefully Dallas rolls in and screws the Sharks over. They have better pieces to give Ottawa.

I'm betting that Dorion demands Goodrow as part of the package.

*insert "There are two Gaudreau/Goodrow's???" meme here*

Well... yeah.


I don't see how that's a bold prediction, they finished second in the division last year and now would have Karlsson. And Kane from the start.

Trade incoming!

@DarrenDreger
Sources say San Jose players are being informed of a trade to Ottawa.

They can have him. Great player, but I’m not concerned about the Flames handling the Sharks.

I am waiting for SJ to give up nothing, just because it will annoy me.

Ottawa should get a Hertl+/Couture/Labanc+ back as a centrepiece, but they'll likely settle for Donskoi, Melker Karlsson, and Dillon type of meh return I bet.

Karlsson AND Burns on the same roster.
That's not even fair.

Not saying the Karlsson trade is done, just reporting the minute by minute account of info flowing in.

Informing players that they have been traded seems like a done deal to me...Dreger can be such a tool.

David Pagnotta @TheFourthPeriod
Sounds like Erik Karlsson to San Jose is being made official. Told at least 2 SJ roster players are going to Sens.
