[TRADE] Karlsson to Sharks

[4T2]

DeMelo could have good value in Ottawa, probably be PP2 quarterback and get alot of offensive minutes, he did good offensively in limited minutes in San Jose, I'd say good under the radar defense pick-up in leagues that don't count Plus-Minus, he also hit and blocked at a decent rate last year.

I don't think anyone has good value in Ottawa after that trade. I literally cannot think of any Senator I will be drafting this year. Maybe a late round flyer on Stone if he's available.

Just wait on someone saying Ottawa got a good return and Karlsson is overrated.

I seriously cannot believe how underwhelming this deal is for OTT. Wilson comes out smelling like a rose while Dorion....not so much.

That's a tough return. Norris is a good prospect but no big pieces coming back. A fair number of decent pieces, we'll see if they can land a good player or two with the picks.

From a fantasy perspective, a huge relief for all Shea Theodore owners.

Dorion: We want a future Norris winner coming back in the deal
Wilson: Umm... Josh... Norris...?

My friend just texted me apparently all picks involved have conditions on them.

Wonder if it's actually the 4 picks originally reported, or is it just 2?

I would have hung on to him and taken my chances if that?s the best they could do. All they accomplished was to improve the odds of that lottery pick. I feel bad for Sens fans.

With Tierney gone, it looks likely that Suomela makes the team out of camp somewhere in the bottom six.

SJS press release twitter account just said:
conditional 2019 2nd round pick
conditional 2020 1st round pick
if Karlsson re-signs, Ottawa receives 2021 2nd round selection

According to Ottawa it's:
Ottawa receives San Jose's first-round choice in either 2019 or 2020 (not lottery protected); if the Sharks miss the playoff in 2018-19 it will be a 2019 selection, otherwise it will be in 2020.

Ottawa receives a second-round choice in the 2019 draft from San Jose (which will be the higher of the two picks the Sharks currently own, the Florida Panthers and their own);

The deal also includes two conditional picks:
Should the Sharks sign Karlsson to a contract extension, Ottawa receives San Jose's second-round selection in 2021, which would upgrade to a first-round selection (not lottery protected) if San Jose reaches the Stanley Cup Final in 2019

If Karlsson is on an Eastern Conference roster (reserve list) during the 2018-19 season, the Senators will receive an additional first round pick from the Sharks no later than 2022.

I own Chabot Karlsson and M. Jones in one league. Think I like this trade......

[rtstr]

where's the veto button

[agentzero]

How can Burns and Karlsson coexist on the right side? I couldn't think of a scenario that would actually hurt Karlsson's production other than staying in Ottawa but I guess this was it... Wow. I was happy he was out of Ottawa but I don't think I am happy about this.

[2014olympicgold]

Just looking over my last posts describing the conditions...


SJS needs to go for it this yr pretty much. If they crap the bed, and decide not to re-sign Karlsson, they can only trade him to a western team, or if they trade him to the east they need to get more than 1 1st round pick to make it viable.

Unconfirmed comment from Joe Thornton regarding the trade:

Thornton said: "I'd have my cock out if we traded spare parts for Erik Karlsson. I'd have my cock out, stroking it."
