<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rsamuelson</b></div><div>The Martin Jones deal is worse than Louis because of the term. It would probably take quite a bit to trade that off, especially if the sharks get a goalie of Markstroms caliber back</div></div>

Jones is an excellent playoff goalie, after three straight losses to VGK last year he was excellent again, so don’t let those numbers fool you. Also Jones’ net problems are bad now but they’ve been exploited due to the Sharks terrible and inconsistent defense the last two years. Jones isn’t as bad as his numbers suggest.

We hope Nabokov can get him back to where he needs to be because Hedbergs message clearly got stale. Nabby was mentored by Warren Strelow (same goalie mentor for Brodeur and Kiprusoff) so I think some of that tutelage will rub off on Jones and it already has on Dell, who has been very good actually.

Kane has one fewer point than your top scorer and more goals than anyone on the islanders. We have six guys with at least 20 points, your team has four. Did you bother looking up stats or do you just pull your banality arbitrarily out of your asshole when you are bored?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CheechYou</b></div><div>You have to account that Burns is physically an absolute beast and freak of nature... his conditioning is unreal and it's naive to simply cast him as just another 34yr old.</div></div>

That’s a good point, burnsy is another level of fitness and strength. He’ll be an effective player for 3-4 more years.

Caveat here is that Burns likely wouldn’t accept a trade to Toronto. He loves SJ and if he were to move anywhere I think it’d have to be Dallas (lives in Texas during summer) or another Pacific team. It’s a good thought though and while Burns is having a comparatively rough season I think he will turn it around when the team turns it around, and when Burns is on his game, we sharks fans know he is unstoppable most nights. I’m not ready to see him go just yet.

Sujet: Change is good
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>It's not for an aging goalie. It's shedding a $5.75M Jones. That's what his value is now. I 100% agree with you that this trade should NOT exist and 100% agree with you that SJ should keep Jones. He has negative value right now, but since it's THAT bad...and it is that bad...if you want to dump him then it would be an insane cost today.

GSAA of -22.87 and -16.21 for the past 2 years. He's terrible.</div></div>
You misread my point, obviously. I said I wouldn’t trade Merkley for Crawford. I don’t care about Jones because he is not moveable. Merkley is a top offensive defenseman prospect and he is worth wayyyy more than Crow coming off major concussions and 34 years old. Not. Even. Close.
