So Dorion is contradicting himself again... a minute ago he said that they tried in good faith to negotiate with JGP's camp, and that it just eventually became apparent that a deal couldn't be done. Then someone asked him if it was term or dollars that was the stumbling block and he says "it was neither, it was just part of the plan to get the best return for him that we could"
When a player gets traded and immediately signs an extension within a couple hours when the team he came from had over a year to resign him, that team didn't make a serious offer or that player told them no thanks, I'm not interested in what ever you offer.
Just think about how much grief they could have saved themselves with the fans if they had been honest about the tear down from the start. Like maybe during those town hall meetings that were a blatant disaster of attempting to control the narrative.
No endless parade of "taking a run" at signing a guy in order to sell tickets and then decry that they tried and it was all the player's fault for not accepting their "competitive" offer.
JG Pageau said he was “puking last night” trying to deal with all the emotions and the uncertainty of signing a contract extension or face being traded. #sens
big deal. I've been puking over this team since 2008.
2013 hat trick by JGP v Montreal was ok, 2017 run was ok. They actually beat Boston something an unnamed team in Ontario has never did 😂😂

So the Sharks traded Brenden Dillon, Patrick Marleau, Barclay Goodrow withing the past week all for picks.
How much does that help our cause?
Brenden Dillon - 59 GP, 1 G, 13A
Patrick Marleau - 60 GP, 10 G, 10 A
Barclay Goodrow - 62 GP, 8 G, 16 A
I don't think any of those really impact their season
Goodrow is their best PK man, he does a lot of their dirty work. Dillon a top 4 Dman and was their most steady at actually playing defense. Marleau in his 22nd year 🤦♂️🤷🏼♂️
Man we are going to have to pick up a crap load of dead people contracts to reach the cap floor next season. Bobby Ryan's salary now makes him one of the teams most valuable players.
