Description

1.) I think Musty will get his 9 games and go back to juniors.
2.) Idk if Smith will make it full time in the NHL next year but he has a solid D+1 so I think he would benefit from being in SJ either with the sharks or Cuda.
3.) One big question is if the sharks have space for both Gushchin or Bordeleau next year, or if one of them gets moved.
4.) Taking a big cap dump for a nice return would be a smart move.
5.) Sharks have never won the draft lottery -> Levshunov at 3 -> MBN at 14 -> Anthony Cristoforo at 33 -> Andrew Basha at 55 -> It sounds like a goalie would be a reach with this pick so maybe another left wing would be a good choice.
