Kahun has produced at .5PPG centering a line? He has not.

You did, by using his production rate of this past season as some kind of indicator he can handle the 3C role, which you projected him at.

Your lineup may be a sad reality, but it is not a good idea, and will not work out.

Worse is Tage on the top line.

You are banking on this climate depressing Smith's upcoming contract and the stink of the Sabres not meaning an increased cost in signing him.

Evolving Hockey's most prediction for his next contract is 3 years @ $4.4M per.

The next two most likely contract predictions for him are 5 years @ 5.3M per and 4 years @ $4.8M per.

I think there's a strong chance he will want and get at least a 3 year deal and at $4M+ per year.

- kingcong39

He made $4.25M last season, averaged 38 points over the last six seasons and will be 31 yrs. old in September.

Although I agree that I low-balled him, if he gets more than $4.25m per I'd be surprised. And I don't know who is doing those numbers, but I've noticed that they consistently go longer term with a bigger dollar figure. Usually if one goes up, the other goes down

strome had 15 points in 48 games in the nhl at this point .312 ppg


casey has 39 points in 114 games .342 ppg


strome is 2 and a half years older

- homiedclown



Doesn't matter to me where Strome *was.

It matters where he is now. Casey is not anywhere close to where Strome is now.

we have this great coach though



you need to prepare for the worst if you have doubts on cozens and casey


hate to break it to you

- homiedclown


There are really only a few coaches league wide that provide a tangible difference.

Goaltending makes or breaks the perception of the coach.

Craig smith has some consistent stats. Nice even strength goal totals. 30 years old...

I'd give him a 2 year 9 million Johansson deal ideally

Add Plus some buffatax - maybe

Tomas Hertl is my ideal acquisition this offseason if the Sharks are looking for cap space.

Offer the 2021 1st + a prospect like Asplund for Hertl and and someone like Labanc.

Move Johansson for a pick.

Trade Risto for Copp and Roslovic


Olofsson/Eichel/Reinhart
Skinner/Hertl/Labanc
Kahun/Copp/Roslovic
Cozens/4th Center X/Okposo

Hertl is a big ? mark to me to be giving up a 1st for, that knee is a unknown. And I know people want to shelter Cozens, but on the 4th line.

I don't want Cozens entering this season with any type of NHL expectations, because theres a large chance he doesn't exceed them and then his confidence goes, and a year later he's in Rochester

I understand that boards, but you also want to give him a chance to succeed.

Of Course, give him some shifts up top and on the PP. If he's good and ready he will go up the lineup no issues

my fear is the guys like simmonds, frolic, johansson type guys will be brought in to make it where cozens, casey and tage can not get any real ice time, even if they earn it in training camp


like bringing miller in to keep borgen down

I think Tage/Casey both have chances to be NHL regulars, but I don't want to bank on it.

We need playoffs next year or #9 is a goner
