With the TDA signing, we only have $850K in cap space which is basically what you want to leave for call up’s in case of injuries.

The Canes current roster is:

Bunting - Aho - Teravainen

Svechnikov - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Martinook - Staal - Fast

Noesen - Drury - Jarvis

Lemieux

Slavin - Burns

Orlov - Pesce

Skjei - Chatfield

Coghlan - DeAngelo

Andersen

Raanta

Kochetkov

 

Technically I’m one over right now but Svech is unlikely to be ready by the start of the season. Ponomarev or Rees could also see some time with the big club this year.

Until Svech comes back, I could see Noesen moving into his spot and Lemieux alongside Drury and Jarvis.

Slavin - Burns

Orlov - ?

Skjei - Chatfield

Pesce, DeAngelo, Coghlan are all RDs, so.....

If Pesce gets moved, I could see Chatty moving to the second pair with Orlov, and TDA getting paired with Skjei.

Regardless, I think the guy who gets screwed in the end is Brady Skjei. He either drops to the 3rd pair and/or he gets paired with TDA and has to pick up the slack. And he's in a contract year. I watched the playoffs again the other day when the NHL Network showed the 90 minute versions of the NY Islanders series, and Brady Skjei had a very good post season. He didn't make many mistakes and you never saw him get caught out of position. He's a solid second pair d-man and I think the Canes need to lock him up for another 3-4 years. He's got a NTC in his contract as well.

Is it me or does it feel like extending Aho was probably the last move before TC?

no.

Probably still looking to move Pesce and I'd think Tarasenko's open market value is a similar story to the Sharks overvaluing EK--if the agents and Sharks were gonna get their asking price it would have happened already.  We're just slow playing to not give up too much/pay too much, but also still willing to talk w teams regarding Pesce in the meantime.  Plenty time left.

Mmm I’ve of the opinion if it was going to happen it would have already happened.

i mean. VT isn't on a team. he will be on a team. the sharks could wait til trade deadline for EK but good luck to them if they do--he will be much cheaper then and we'll be just fine in the meantime

You're right, to a point. The downside for the Sharks is if nothing happens and EK plays the season in a Sharks sweater. They will end up retaining more of his $11.5M AAV the longer this goes on. And, let's not forget, EK is under contract thru the 2026-27 season.

Sure, the Sharks have over $5M in cap space, but if we're being honest, their roster is pretty weak. Although I'd take Oskar Lindblom and Anthony Duclair on the Canes any day, the fact is Tomas Hertl and Logan Couture aren't playing up to their salaries.

The Sharks need to move EK to clear more cap space and get some scoring up front- bottom line.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
