I have no problem with him, he has never played 82 games in a season and dont want him to get worn out before the playoffs

Well a 2nd for a UFA 3rd liner and a 7th.

So like McGinn for Moore and Lundqvist

[AnderFunk]

We desperately needed a 3rd line LW to play on the PK. Hopefully Moore is a good fit. Our forward depth has increased which was a necessity and our depth at defence or goalie has not been decreased.

A good deal, I would say. Moore is more than capable.

Hey - you don't hate it

He could concievable knock Zus down to the 4th line as well if he can maybe click w/ McGinn / Mitchell (if he gets that chance).

Otherwise, he's an upgrade over Mitchell & every wing they've been running out on the 4th line.

[LionSpeak]

Not bad DW.

[slocal]

I like Moore's grit and it's almost a fair pay for his abilities. I'm selfishly happy that we didn't trade anyone for him as well.

This is not an unprecedented price. Never mind that we got a 7th back (those other two trades didn't)

[Thorntonfan97]

Wish he was suiting up for sharks tonight but I guess not

[one2gamble]

I would have been a bit more happy if Mitchell was going the other way as well.

That's pretty interesting. And consistent.

Yup. I was waiting for the reported heart attacks to roll in because I chipped in with "acceptable". Agree with your take on what he can do. Summary: It gives them McGinn, Moore, Zeus and Desi as locked in the bottom six. They can rotate the rest. Best guess is that it bumps Mitchell to 4th line.

[Channing Tatum]

can we get a title change?

Sharks acquire Moore than capable PK and bottom 6 guy?

[skilks]

Works for me. Adresses a need.

[Shark Fin Soup]

Can Moore fill in adequately in the top six or is he strictly a 3rd line guy? Demers and Braun are still in the Sharks organization so I'm okay with this.

[BeeRad]

So replaces Handzus or Winchester? What would be projected lines now?

I don't understand the Mitchell hate. Can you explain it to me? He goes out there and skates hard every shift. He's one of the fastest guys on the team, and he's decent in his own zone. He's been clearly better than Handzus all year.

You just blew my mind. The funny thing is we've got four players on the roster drafted by San Jose in the 7th round (Pavelski, Braun, Demers, and McCarthy).

[magic school bus]

Awesome.

[spurious]

I'm pretty excited to get another 7th round pick.

How many contracts does this put us at, by the way? 49 or 50?

[WTFetus]

No reason to root against Minnesota now

[Can HaZ Trainz]

Not sure how I feel about the trade but I think it looks promising

Hopefully our 2nd round pick.

Nope. The Minnesota pick.


I have to think this is a prelude to another deal as this puts the Sharks at 50 active NHL contracts.

[sharkbite3]

Nice! I go out to get some booze and I come back to a trade. Welcome, Dominic!
