Hertl

I just don't think NSH should be a buyer at the deadline. They aren't a Tomas Hertl away from a cup.

2017 and 2018 were the years the Preds had to win it all.

While Duchene a nd Johanson are having bounce back years, they aren't good enough to take a team to the cup

Sharks are going to want a better prospect than that coming back.

As fun as it would be to add Hertl, I don't think it's a move NSH should make. Out of curiosity though, what would you say to Svechkov and a 2nd for Hertl? I understand SJ is in need of center prospects the most.

My understanding earlier this year they came out and said that the offer would have to be ridiculous for them to trade Hertl. Now if the deadline comes along and the sharks are out of it I expect them to move him. The ask was rumored at a 1st plus a top prospect. So in this situation I think they would counter with Svechkov + a 1st. Probably not ideal for Nashville, I feel they’ve really punched up this year.
