<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>goodfella</b></div><div>I am still not convinced Chmel or Chek are going to work out. Happy to be proven wrong. Same with True. Not sure getting rid of Balcers is going to benefit us.

Gambrell is a great player, but I don't know if he ever ends up as a 3C or 4C. Clearly not a 1C or 2C.</div></div>

Chekhovich I am totally on the hype train for. With his stellar play and production in the KHL, it's hard not to be. If Sasha does not work out, the team would have enough to sign a decent more proven 3C. Fourth line, who knows who will be on it.

As this article says https://thehockeywriters.com/sharks-future-winger-depth-strong/ the Sharks have so many young wingers, and I think they make one another expendable. Balcers has a higher IQ or knack for getting to good spots than Leno or Donato, but that is a teachable part of the game. The skill those two have over Balcers would take much longer to develop. That higher upside makes me want them over Rudy.

Also to reiterate: Balcers was waived by the worst team in the league a few weeks ago, and now some want to tout him as a future second line talent... he's on the second line more so because the team sucks and chemistry is working currently than it is his talent. I would expect Leno or Donato to overtake him soon

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rob32sjsharks</b></div><div>He’s ready to make the jump he is consistently better than everyone else on the ice.
But he is not a 4th liner so if he is up he has to play top 9 or we’re just going to hurt him.
How is Jarros playing?
And can we bench Dubnyk and brink up Melnichuyk?</div></div>

Jaros hasn't looked like anything special. I tend to undervalue when I watch defensive defenseman, so maybe take that with a grain of salt, but from the games I've liked Merkley, Megna, and Russo's games more.

I agree with what you said about Blichfeld, but the way our wing is so clogged rn, I can't see any of Leno or Donato moving to the fourth. We could run Leno-Donato-Blichy but I could never see Bob doing that, way too much youth and fun on that line

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>The fact you have Karlsson on the third pair is just plain foolish plus Merkley is not NHL ready or top line ready</div></div>

for next season I see us running d pairings similar to how they were two days ago. Karlsson got to play against worse competition, restricted PK minutes, and outchance opponents. There's no point in trotting out A washed up Karlsson and pretending he will ever be near what he used to be. Thus, he needs a role he can flourish in, 20 min max and used in spots where he can succeed. He won't be the player he used to be ever, and should not get 25-28 min ever like he did to start the season.

Flip Larsson and Merkley if it is that worrisome. I've watched all the Cuda games and Merkley honestly looks good defensively, unless he is out longer than arounf 45 seconds, then he makes some half-assed plays. He will be in the NHL next season, mainly replacing Burns.
