Trade Targets?
I was doing some research on some players and was thinking of ways on how to improve the team. Anyhow I made a list and you guys could tell me what you think.
I assume Doug Wilson will go after some of these player because they would immensely improve the team and make it more better. Some of the names might be a stretch, like Rinne, but I'm sure the Sharks are interested in obtaining such players.
As for trade bait this gets a little tougher. I'm thinking the Sharks will definitely trade some 1st round draft picks because historically they're not really good drafting early (as evidenced by the 2008 and 2009 1st round draft picks not contributing anything to the organization yet). I'm thinking the Sharks are willing to part ways with a guy like Torrey Mitchell so he could be part of a package with draft picks and maybe even some minor leaguers.
so what do you guys think? Should the Sharks trade for one of these guys?

I heard that Ovechkin is a choker.
So we should try and avoid trading for him. But Stamkos for Mitchell and John McCarthy is probably fair.
Believing in the Sharks, one photoshop at a time. GO SHARKS!
Sounds good.
But McCarthy is an RFA so I don’t know how realistic that is.

Wow, that's right!
You think McCarthy is going to get offersheeted?
Believing in the Sharks, one photoshop at a time. GO SHARKS!
You're being sarcastic right?
Because there is no way in hell that Tampa Bay would trade Stamkos for Mitchell and McCarthy

If anything of ours
They’d want Niemi. Goalie is their only real weakness. Roloson had solid game 7 against Boston, but he’s pushing 42.
They'd want at MINIMUM Al Stalock.

"You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain Kent Huskins!" - Randy Hahn 2/13/11
Isnt't Lidstrom retiring?
So he’s off the list.
As stated above, Ovechkin is a choker, so we can cross him off, as well.
We signed Nemo for a while, and we have God recovering this offseason waiting for his chance to crack the big club, so we don’t need Rinne. Oh yeah and we still have Nitty.
Stamkos has a bum nose and who knows how long it’s gonna take him to recover from that. He’s off.
Sidney Crosby? Never heard of the guy so he must not be that good.
So really, we’re left with Zdeno Chara and Pavel Datsyuk but that’s okay cause we need a defenseman, so Chara makes sense, and we need a good defensive forward, and Datsyuk makes sense. So yes, I think DW should definitely go after these guys.
I dont trust anyone with the last name "Crosby" anyways...

Nicklas Lidstrom is probably going to retire in ten years, so why should we go for him? We need long-term defensive help.
Crosby has concussion problems, and I definitely don’t want to deal with that.
Ovechkin has started declining as teams have learned how to defend him. He’s also reckless, and could be a risk for a suspension. Plus, he’s a playoff choker. As we all know, once a playoff choker, always a playoff choker.
Zdeno Chara’s name has a Z and a D next to each other, but not at the end or where the Z is in place of an S in an effort to make the pluralization seem cool, so he’s no good.
Steven Stamkos couldn’t even beat out Corey Perry for the Rocket Richard this year, so he’s useless.
Pekka Rinne benefited from the trap and playing behind Nashville’s defense. He won’t do well without that protection – he’s no Martin Brodeur.
And Pavel Datsyuk doesn’t score goals and is far under a PPG in the playoffs. We don’t need another playoff choker on this team, and we don’t need another guy who doesn’t score goals.

Wally for Stamkos!
We would be doing the Lightning a favor…
Tampa needs a top tier defensemen and Wallin would fit that role, Stamkos is a bit of risky upstart/flash in the pan forward for the Sharks but with better coaching Im sure he could have consistant goal production.
That's what they said about

This is absolutely ridiculous
There is no way the Sharks are going to acquire anyone on this list. It’s not going to happen. Tampa Bay is not going to give up Stamkos, along with St. Louis and Roloson, Stamkos is the reason the Lightning got as far as they did. Lidstrom is never going to leave Detroit. Ovi isn’t going to leave Washington, and even if he did, the Sharks can’t afford him. I doubt Chara is going anywhere and the Sharks can’t really afford him either. Nashville is nothing without Rinne and DW is obviously really high on Niemi since he gave him that contract extension mid-season, so we don’t need a second starting goalie. Sidney Crosby, really? He is the Penguins franchise player, they’ll never trade him and we couldn’t afford him anyway. And Datsyuk is probably going to be with Detroit is entire career.
Maybe you should continue doing your research. If any player on this list ends up in Sharks jersey next season, I’d be more surprised than if the Oilers won the President’s Trophy.

Seto is a RFA and he might want crazy money cause he played well this year. Use him to trade up in the draft, perhaps to the New York Islanders for their 1st round pick and draft Dougie Hamilton.
Dougie even said he’d like to play for San Jose cause him and his brother Freddie (drafted by San Jose 5th round in 2010) have great chemistry together!!
