I have no problem trading Blackwood but I dont want AHL cap dump Campbell and some over ripe prospects. blackwood, since Edm is desperate is going to cost. If you want to dump campbell then its a 2024 1st and 2nd at a minimum plus an asset for Blackwood
I accidentally deleted my comment before sending so I had a lot more of a well rounded of a reply so sorry; just going to finish my last point that I was typing.
What asset do we get that at all matters from EDM for Blackwood?
2024/2025 Sharks Top Prospect handful, are set and likely won’t change (no order):
2024-1st
2024-1st
Bystedt
Bordeleau
Gushchin
Cagoni
Lund
Will smith
Furlong
Shakir
Musty
— knocking on the door of this deep pool for the top 10
Havelids, Laroque, Gawanke, Haulttenen, Fisher
Now we add here either Akey, Petrov, or Xavier… do you see my point? So we’re easily asking for another first (two firsts in the deal minimum and I value Blackwood more then a first, as I have faith in how good Blackwood is, so that EDM first in 2025 will be 25-32). So I am asking for a conditional first plus a prospect of value.
And this isn’t even considering NJD conditional first, or our 2nd round select/ aka late first into our pool.
The deal is just going to be to expensive for SJS to get proper value to lose Blackwood - there is no downside to keeping Blackwood compared to the risk of accepting a subpar offer (like a 2nd-ish in value).
SJS has no goalie in the pipes that looks to be able to dethrone Blackwood if he does carry his play.
If he keeps this play through till 2025 at a somewhat reasonable level (‘not stopping 50 shots a night lol) - we easily get rinsed. Example:
Campbell
2024 heavily protected first
2025 heavily protected first
One of EDM top prospects (not Lavoie imo)
2nd
Is what I’m using to begin the conversation - and that’s incredibly high and something that ends the convo with EDM rather quickly I’d guess.
It’s far more likely the conversation steers towards Kaapo and then prices drop exponentially for EDM.
