@CurtisPashelka Insurance policy If doesnt get regular NHL games. This trend is increasing in popularity with European players who dont want to get ”stuck” in the minors, but play as ”stars” back home or in the top 5 leagues (NL, SHL, DEL, Liiga or Extraliga)
@Sheng_Peng W pick, really happy. Very similar to Bystedt, but a right shot winger. Will play a full season in a top 9 role this season in men’s league as 18yr old.
@Shark7724@hockey_jerk The sharks did not offer anything. His qualifying offer was 10 million. In an ideal world If Sharks were competitive we would have signed a similar long term deal what Devils offered (market value, not a hometown discount)
@SanJoseSharks My immediate reaction - underwhelmed. After processing it.. I like it. Addresses our position depth needs and allows our own projected top forwards to develop into their roles. Holtz? we have Eklund as Timo’s replacement within two seasons and now a top 4 D within 2 years +spares
@cmasisak22 Hei Corey, feel free to hit me up when need info in Finland 🇫🇮 or Sweden 🇸🇪. Lived in both extensively, and still in Helsinki. Grew up in the Bay Area in late 90’s #sjsharks
@FriedgeHNIC I don’t mind, he has experienced trials and errors as a developmental HC with @NYRangers and a short failed stint with @usahockey on large surface tournament. If he can apply what he has learned not to do, will payoff now with @SanJoseSharks
