Blueberries Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Darren Dreger: “Marleau and Thornton are two names that are legitimately in play and it could get ugly in SJ due to their NMC” http://mynhltraderumors.com/tag/joe-thornton/ http://the6thsens.com/2014-articles/bob-mckenzie-talks-nhl-rumour-mill-thornton-and-spezza.html http://www.sportsworldreport.com/articles/30795/20140603/nhl-trade-rumors-2014-ryan-kesler-brad-marchand-joe-thornton-patrick-marleau-dion-phaneuf-shea-weber-ryan-miller-traded-this-summer.htm Been seeing a lot of people speculating that Thornton/Marleau could be moved since the team wants to move into a another direction. Obviously they cant move them if Joe/Patrick say no becaus they have NMC's in their contracts. Should be interesting to see how SJS does handle this situation UPDATE: Leafs interested in Sharks centre Joe Thornton http://www.torontosun.com/2014/06/06/leafs-reportedly-interested-in-joe-thornton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I highly doubt it they move them especially this early. They just got extended and would be a bad rep to just ship them out this fast. If anything it'll be next offseason if they fail to make the WCF or trade deadline if they are doing real bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Strome Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Every summer these 2 names pop up. That team needs young wingers, While Couture and pavelski take over the 1-2c role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking mama Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Some folks you just cannot win-over...and there are players whose stripes cannot be changed to fit into other markets. Anyone remember... Mark Messier? Joe Thorton,...would be the same deal for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rypien37 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Just imagine we would have been in the same situation as the Sharks are in right now if we never won game 7 against the Hawks in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything it'll be next offseason if they fail to make the WCF or trade deadline if they are doing real bad. I beg to differ. They stated they are going into rebuild, if anything it does not only the organization a favor, but the players. Say the players went to FA and didn't extend their contracts? Well they still have the option of where they want to go with there NTC's. They get a great fresh start, and can go to cup finalists, or turn teams into cup finalists, unlike the Shark's as they are now. Boston has a bad rep, but not for this reason, ALTHOUGH they signed, then traded Kessel. Same with LA trading Jack Johnson, it's not as big of a deal as CDC seems to think.

Pears Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I know a move like this would seem like bad management, but I think it was a great move by Wilson to sign Thornton and Marleau to short contracts incase another playoff no show happened. That way they could still get a solid return for both instead of potentially losing them for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Mind Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I doubt either gets moved. They should just stay the course. They had a great reg season, and lost the first round because Vlasic was injured and they didn't have anyone to fill the void. They just need to make a couple of depth moves and they'll be fine.
