The NHL Thread, 2012/2013 season

[f=ma]

Yes, people are that fucking dumb.

Although Hertl was a good selection, I still would have preferred the speedy winger Teuvo Teravainen.

Hertl has the versatility that the Sharks seek

Of course, I'm not refuting that Hertl was bad selection. Simply stating that if given the two; I would have gone with the later.

Granted, in hindsight, the Sharks depth has been practically run[traded] dry, so any selection is a fine one.

The sharks love versatile players aka couture, pavs.

I love having a twitter account, this was literally posted 15 seconds ago;

Brodie Brazil ‏@brodiebrazilCSN

#sjsharks have signed Tommy Wingels to a 2-year, 1-way contract

 

[B-Cuz]

Roster updates, RFA qualifying offers;

David Pollak ‏@PollakOnSharks

#Sjsharks give QOs to Galiardi, Shepard, Stalock, Petrecki, McLaren, Mashinter, Pelech, Kennedy and Irwin.

Brodie Brazil ‏@brodiebrazilCSN

Ferriero, Lucia, Marcou, MacIntyre, Sexsmith become free agents. #sjsharks

 

[B-Cuz]

Good morning all, Free Agent Frenzy starts in just over an hour from now. Off the top of my head, the big name UFAs testing the market are Parise (though expected to re-sign with NJ), Ryan Sutter, Shane Doan, and Rick Nash. Should be a fun day of trades and transactions.

So am I the only one that thinks giving Crosby a lengthy extension like that was retarded?

I'm right there with you man. Crosby is top level talent, and is also known at Capt Concussion.

In Shark related news, TSN is reporting a 4yr/1.8M contract with F Adam Burish. I don't like it at all....will be critical of this guy throughout his time in teal.

 

[Coastal Coyote]

Plus the contract for Sid has no insurance. Curious to see how Burish does. I like the player, not sure about the contract.

 

[B-Cuz]

Torrey Mitchell signs with Minn Wild for 3yrs.

Ray Whitney to Dallas for 2yrs/9(?)M

Matt Carkner to NY isles along with Brad Boyes.

 

[Coastal Coyote]

Wings pick up Tootoo, Gustavsson, Samuelsson, and Brunner. Nobody on D yet....

Trade you Tootoo for Demers.

PA Parenteau goes to COL for 4ys/16M contract, the Avs (pending health) are going to be pretty solid in the Top6.

The always humorous and scrappy George Parros heads to sunny FLA Panthers for 2 years, ANA replaces him with Staubitz, also for 2 years. Will be nice if the Sharks can get their PP together.

 

[B-Cuz]

Martin Brodeur, although a UFA, re-signs with NJD. I'm happy for him and the NJ org, next stop HHOF.

ANA signs Sheldon Souray for 3yrs/11M, although older, he can scrap too. Looks like ANA will try to fight their way to a Cup again.

george parros ‏@Stache16

@b_ryan9 indeed we did have a good run, u were my twitter mentor and my phantom roommate... Watch out for the one eye surprise!

 

[Coastal Coyote]

Was hoping the Wings would pick up Parros, but knew they wouldn't. Tootoo can skate, so I'm looking forward to having him out there with Helm. I'm glad Brodeur is staying put. Waiting to see where Parise and Suter land today, and what happens after that.

 

[f=ma]

I hope the rangers trade for Nash. They are, after all, the king of shit contracts

 

[asthmodeus]

The always humorous and scrappy George Parros heads to sunny FLA .

scrappy? Parros is a 6-1/2 foot heavyweight destroyer...theo fleury was scrappy...sean avery is scrappy.

speaking of scrappy, seeing how the sharks think getting a recent champion goalie will bring them a cup, could someone please convince wilson to give us back big dumb joe and grab thomas?? he's pretty scrappy. thomas that is..
