2011 NHL Free Agency Gameday: Buckle Up

9-6-2, $56.6 MM 3-1-0, $7.7 MM
30th in July 1st signings
1st in robbing GM's $$$

Whew.

We've been quite busy over the last two days previewing the who's who of the 2011 Free Agent class. Players like Joel Ward and Eric Belanger are obviously our highest targets, but ultimately, one can safely assume they are the targets of other teams across the League as well. It's always a wait and see game with San Jose on July 1st (with more waiting involved than many would like), but this year it really seems like San Jose makes a bigger impact than usual on the first day of free agency.

Here is what the San Jose Sharks are working with heading into today's gong show:

  • Jamie McGinn signed a one year deal worth $680 K per season.
  • Andrew Desjardins signed a one year deal worth $540 K per season.
  • Frazer McLaren signed a one year deal worth $570 K per season.
  • Assuming McLaren isn't on the opening night roster and McGinn/Desjardins are, the San Jose Sharks have $7.7 MM in cap space. This includes Justin Braun as the sixth defenseman.
  • Three forwards need to be either signed via free agency or promoted from within the organization.
  • One defenseman can be signed or promoted from within the organization in order to give the Sharks a healthy scratch or send Justin Braun down to Worcester.

The Sharks have a distinct opportunity to make a huge impact today. We cannot stress this enough. If they stand pat there is no doubt they will be a good team in the thick of the Pacific Division race-- however, the current roster has some notable holes which will make it hard to really hitch your cart to the Hoowa horse throughout the year.

If they make some bold moves and acquire some affordable impact players (of which there are many, too many to count really), the opportunity is there for them to become a premier Stanley Cup favorite heading into next season.

With the amount of cap space San Jose has right now expect them to target their guys early in the day. They aren't looking for any big fish to come in and change the vibe of the franchise. They can be aggressive in snatching up their key acquisitions while other teams wrestle over the higher profile names.

Maybe it's the excitement talking but I have a feeling DW is going to turn some major heads today with some quality third line forwards. The Brent Burns acquisition proved he's willing to push the pedal and watch the engine roar.

Big day ahead.

Enjoy.

Depth and role palyers

I don’t see the Sharks doing anything at all today. They’ll be looking to sign the 2nd tier of guys that are still around after all of the rediculous contracts are handed out today. I think they’ll look for a depth d-man, and PK specialists – maybe guys like Lundin, R. Jones, R. Shannon, Z. Kenopka. I would love to get Matt Brandley back in teal!

I also think they’ll be looking at the ‘reclamation’ projects, like Commodore or guys coming off injuries like Fleischmann or Sullivan (ok, those last two are just guys I’d really, really like).

by milanahalek on Jul 1, 2011 7:35 AM PDT reply actions  

I could see the Sharks doing something today if they have specific players in mind and nobody else calls those players today. The big hope is the teams that would be interested are too busy trying to get Richards.

Kind of like Nitty last year.

" if they have specific players in mind and nobody else calls those players today."

Well – ya, but a lot of teams are gonna be after Ward, Cole, Leino, Hejda…I guess when I say won’t do anything it’s more in reference to the players everyone wants. Should have put it a different way, they’ll be looking for 2nd tier guys instead of the 1st tier FA.

by milanahalek on Jul 1, 2011 7:41 AM PDT reply actions  

I consider the 1st tier guys to be Richards, Vokoun, Wisnewski, White, Gagne…

3rd liners like we’d target aren’t high priorities for most teams.

Those still aren’t the guys we’re likely to sign. I know everybody here loves Ward, but I’m sorta hoping for guys like Fiddler…

Six years with the Jackets for Wisnewski.

I’m thoroughly shocked at how well the Jackets are making strides to build a playoff-possible team. Jackets have been my second favourite team for years (third after the Jets now), and I’m so glad to see them actually trying to be good without relying on Rick Nash to be some sort of demi-god.

Only Eaves interests me. I think people forget that Wisnewski is a mediocre defenseman. Yeah, he puts up some points, but if you think he’s the cog that’s going to push you over the top, I think there’s some more fundamental issues with your team.

Jovo for 1 year would be OK – but in my opinion, the Sharks can’t sign another d-man to a multi year deal until they get Burns under contract. They’ve already got Boyle, Murray, Vlasic and Demers signed through next year and Burns and Couture are going to be making a LOT more $$ next year.

Not sure if trolling or inattentive.

Niemi has come a LONG LONG way, and deserves all the credit in the world, but he is NOT a 65 game started. Unless you really think Greiss’s game can be rehabilitated after he fell off a clip in Europe, or Stalock is NHL ready after a major injury, Nitty is going to be pretty essential, and $2M is entirely reasonable.

If we play Niemi full time

I think we might be in trouble. Again, HUGE props to him for his improvement. Hardest working Shark last season for my money.

But in his FIRST FULL SEASON in North America, Todd McLellan started him on a streak that was 4th longest in franchise history. Nabby, a known workhorse, held the top 3. Niemi was less than stellar in the post-season.

I, for one, see a correlation, and possibly even causation. So no, I want to see Nitty in teal next season.

by a408life on Jul 1, 2011 10:40 AM PDT reply actions  

As long as DW signs Marco Sturm I will be happy ;)

He really loved it in SJ
He brings Speed we really need in our top 9.
He was our best PK player befor he was traded. (ok Ricci hard to say but Marleau was not as good defensively that time)
Perfect hybrid between second and third line after the loss of Seto.
He will give a discount to be here and DW might have the chance to bring him in with a 1 year contract like he did with Malholtrta 2 years ago.
The cap hit will be a bit higher but I think he will give SJ a discount to jumpstart his career after an injury plagued season.

He will be back to his usual level next year and was only waived because of his high salary and the fact that he was comming back after two thirds of the season.

Others might not see it that way but for me he would be a huge upgrade over Wellwood on the third line and alternatively enables us to keep Pavelski to play center the third line.

Hi is my sleeper as a FA signing with lots to win even though he was not hyped in this forum.

DW did not give him away in the Big Joe trade because he wanted to get rid of him. He was what Boston wanted, I think even more than Stuart.

I am sure Sturms agent will cal DW.

But unless he does actually get a Malhotra-type cheap 1 year deal, he’s way too risky based on his injury history.

SJ

wants another pro team in the city. I prefer it to be the Athletics and MLB than the Thunder and NBA. Oh wait, no NBA this year too!

With both the NFL and NBA locked out, look for that SJ fan base to become even more diluted….

So, lets in bring in the A’s and make SJ a legit Top 10 city in the country and push for the #1 spot someday over lame ass NYC…

I imagine ticket prices are a lot cheaper than MLB prices would be too. I think if when (I’m an optimist) the economy starts booming again and teams start filling up the west a bit more, Sacramento would make a decent market. But that’s at least 20 years or so away.

Quick question...

What are the chances of a lockout after this season?

Randy Hahn - "The Man With The Big Butt - Patrick Marleau - we like him and we cannot lie..."

by sharkzfan on Jul 1, 2011 11:31 AM PDT reply actions  

Honestly don't know

I think Hockey doesn’t want another one, and people know that the CBA needs some tweaking. I think the NHL and the NHLPA will work hard to hammer out an agreement. No one WANTS a lockout. But, sometimes, talks break down. That being said, I don’t think this is like the NFL where the players think the owners are screwing them, and I think the league has managed to give the players some fair concessions while staying reasonably profitable.
