Thornton said he would take whatever is left and I could afford to give him 1.7 with Kreider and Strome without any other trades
With everyone healthy, we would have great chances at the cup
if we could move 1 big player we could re-sign everyone next year ( eg. Kane)
Mate, you're delusional if you think Jumbo is signing for 800,000k. It's not happening. This deal, with retained salary gives us 957k left to re-sign Thornton. He isn't taking that.
Doug makes moves that make sense for now and the future, he always has longevity in mind and this move totally negates that. In this League, in this time of the cap, no one is taking on a big contract like Evanders without sending another large contract back.
Not to mention if you throw in trading Kane as well then we are essentially trading Kane, Chmelevski, Melker, 2 top 100 draft picks and Jumbo's last year with the Sharks for Kreider (he who has never reached 30 goals and only reached 50 points twice) and Strome (he who has never notched 20 goals and hit 50 points once six years ago). Yeah this is a GREAT deal for the Sharks! Come on.
