I like Iskhakov but im not playing him top 6. He isn't gonna develop well in the bottom six but atp, I don't see him as an NHLer with us longterm sadly.

Gauthier also will not be back so he's in the AHL and we spend that other money on a 2LW (or play Holmstrom there and sign a 3RW to strengthen the depth.

I think Tsoaplakov will be the 4RW and I'm hyped for that-- he can score 10 goals and be physical as a two way guy (Like clutter)

Holmstrom should start on the 4th line, the game is too fast for him to play top 6

Sharks do that

Sharks accept

I agree but atp it may be better to play him there and strengthen the third line. I don't think we are adding anyone to make the second line much better so helping the third could be smart

This not really an improvement. You traded Pulock for a rental, and sold a reasonable D prospect low. I think we are better off with Lee and Pulock.

Holmstrom was a line killer last season, isles can’t afford to have their 2nd line get caved in

Sharks would rather have Lee thsn Wahlstrom, but we'd take both those deals. No need for Utah.
