   I’ll definitely need more than 3-5 business to process IF he leaves 💔

   Clear out cap space for what?! I don't understand the strategy of getting rid of a good player for the possibility of something down the line. Especially if we go and trade Eric and continue to pay for him to play somewhere else. Already paying for Jones and Kane.

   my issue with a Timo trade is what could San Jose possibly get back that would make it worth it? Timo is a one-of-a-kind player, a new generation power forward. i would love to see him sign long term in San Jose.

   Because hockey is more of a team game than individual dominated, the salary structure on a well designed team ought to be much more egalitarian (many players on the team making $4-5 million per year like the Seattle Kraken with 10 players in that bracket, and goalie Phillip Grubauer their top paid player at $5.9 million). By contrast, the Sharks have 1 player at $11.5 million, 2 at $8 million, 1 at $7 million, 1 at $6 million, and only 1 player in the $4-5 million egalitarian bracket. The result of any lop sided salary split on a team is that many role players get minimum or embarrassing salaries by contrast with the team stars.

   Meier is a gritty sniper and very important scoring forward for Sharks, but he should only be offered the same contract as Hertl, not a penny more. I expect that Meier will get traded for a first round draft pick and a prospect, and that after the playoffs with a contender, he will get a greater offer from another team and then leave the Sharks. Hertl's $8.137 million for 8 years contract is as much as Meier is worth in reality, but other teams may think better and pay more than the Sharks. It certainly won't be Seattle, where GM Ron Francis has decided to build a new franchise based on this egalitarian basis, and whether he succeeds or not on his budget of $81.6 million for player salaries will be interesting to watch as some players come up for new deals and test his principles.

   I hate speculation, also.

   The Sharks have gone down hill ever since we traded Joe Pavelski. The real question is are we going farther down hill? Or is there a light at the end of this tunnel?

   At this point, the team is so god awful there’s no point in keeping him or EK. You’d think they both would want to win. I’m all for loyalty but they aren’t winning anything here.
