Both say that SJS is not going to sell off their core. Friedman says they've made it known that they see it as the same situation as back in 2014/15 where they've missed the playoffs and then went to the finals the following season. Their core is not available but pending UFAs like Brenden Dillon, Melker Karlsson are. That team is screwed. 20 million tied up in two right side D, no goalie, no first this year, aged core, they will suck for awhile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they'd be willing to part with Karlsson. Moving him would go a long way to kickstarting their rebuild. There's a team out there who'd make space for him. It sounds like they expect to compete next season though. Edited January 14, 2020 by Coconuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if they bomb again next season. Zero chance they move Karlsson now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Draisaitl even if he plays for the Oilers. He plays hard, he utilizes his bodies, he doesn’t flop around the ice like Nurse. He plays the right way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Where's that "___________" better than sliced bread update. This makes the weather bearable, all is right in the world. Did he luck the puck or try to shoot it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that contract and EK's defensive woes they would have to eat salary I would think. Or take back a bad contract. Man am I glad JB didn't try, or wasn't successful in trying to lure EK to Vancity. That may well end up being one of the worst contracts on the NHL soon enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlsson has 34 points in 46 games, he's not the problem in San Jose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is brutal defensively and fading in my opinion. By himself maybe not so bad but coupled with Burns the two contracts just don't make sense. Will see how the next few years pan out.

San Jose has brutal goaltending. And they lack depth, neither of which is on EK. Burns was a Norris finalist just last season. EK and Burns have been Norris finalists/winners the last 5 seasons...

Burns is 34 and EK looks like he's 38 in his own end. For a team that is looking like it needs a rebuild that doesn't bode well. I just can't agree with your opinion on EK. I say lets revisit in two years and see where we are at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
