They are both horrific deals.

Calgary gave up more but got the better player. Vancouver gave up less but got worse player back. Both teams got hosed.

I’m taking Pearson over Hamonic, so in my mind we got the better player

And I’ll take McCann and Debrincat/Girard over Pearson

On some bull
Further to @TSNBobMcKenzie

's report on Erik Karlsson,
I'm told the deal is indeed done: 8 years max deal, north of $11 million per season... the Sharks with a huge move in keeping the superstar D from hitting the market.
$11. something per AAV x 8.

Now they fucked themselves with Pavelski UFA, Meier & Lebanc prime RFA's ready for offersheets now.

There was another 4th in that deal too. Could have drafted Victor Meat

Depends, does a Dman who doesn't crack 18:00 toi even with heaps of injuries above him on the depth chart look to be a top-4 in your books?

He’s not one yet but I believe he will become a top 4 D man. Still only 20 years old. My point is that Dick Stroker is out to lunch if he thinks Colin Miller will fetch the 10th overall pick and prospects on top of that. There are other ways to get decent D men.

Please no - Myers on a 3 year deal I can deal with, Myers on a 7 year term is cap suicide. He's a #4 dman on a decent team and exactly the type of guy you don't overpay.

I'd rather take on Zaitsev's deal and pick up an asset if we absolutely need an average RHD.

They are one of many teams that's in cap hell - leaves, Sharks, Jets, Lightning, Oilers (!), etc - all have to make cap related moves sooner rather than later.

Come on Jimbo, take on some salary for some more assets.

Would ya'll get mad if we traded our 1st (#10) in a package for Jacob Trouba? and then re-signed him $7.5 x 8 years.

1st, Tanev and Virtanen for the Troubster.

with added picks on each side to even it out.

Depends what the package was. I’d need to be guaranteed he would extend here. I think he’s a proud American though so I find it doubtful he would.

But he’s a pretty good player.

Money/term talks though, see EK re-signing for over $11M per x 8, vs UFA status.
