Dominic Moore & 7th rd pick 12 for a 2nd round pick 12

Hmmmmmm....keep the wheels moving Doug

 

[Cbrower91]

Good trade Moore should help shore up the bottom 2 lines and bring some physical play

 

[Ray_Dogg]

So Dougie and Stevie were talking deal after all. I love the trade jinx that Pollak provides. He's money on that shit!

 

[SJVP408]

i wonder if it's the Sharks 2nd rounder (low 2nd) or MIN's second rounder (high 2nd) that got shipped out.

I'm assuming he takes over Handzus for the 3d line pivot? Doug kinda messed up. Either he thinks Handzus isn't cutting it as the 3rd line pivot (and has him for another year at $2) or Doug just gave up a 2nd rounder for a 4th line center.

 

[Ray_Dogg]

Maybe Moore plays some third line LW.

 

[MrChangoT97]

So is Kubina next on Dougs list?
I heard he is scratched tonight

Most likely, Handzus has been nails he has no help

No Handzus is fine, he has Torrey Mitchell and Jamie Mcginn to pass to, and if you've been paying attention he has been floating up and down from the 1st to 3rd line, its not Handzus.

Who has been floating up and down? It's not Handzus? I don't know what you are talking about it

 

[SJVP408]

Just read it's MIN's 2nd rounder.

 

[Destroydacre]

Just read it's MIN's 2nd rounder.

Would have been nice to move SJ's instead but oh well. At least the Sharks still have their first round pick.

Moore's a nice pickup. He'll definitely help solidify the bottom 6. I like this move much better than the Moen rumor from a few weeks back. Doug still might be able to make another addition as well.

He has been, if you've been watching through out the season he has been up and down the line up.

 

[MrChangoT97]

so what's Doug's next move?
Moen, Doan, Whitney

 

[Likewall32]

Just read it's MIN's 2nd rounder.

ummmm isnt that a lil steep for a 4th liner with a whomping 4 goals?? seems like that type of guy could be had for a 4th rounder, not a mid 2nd rounder.

 

[Likewall32]

So now that the sharks have one less trade chip in minns 2nd rounder, in a cupboard that was already bare of chips, did this Moore trade just drastically reduce the chances (if their was any) of aquiring a Selanne or Whitney?

 

[SJVP408]

I think Moore will end up bumping Mitchell down to the 4th line. Moore has good speed but more skill than Mitchell. Good move to improve the 3rd line but still doesn't address the scoring depth winger issue.

Thing is, MIN's second rounder was probably the most expendable asset in Doug's bank. Now he has his own 2nd rounder which isn't as high, and low level prospects. Once he starts reaching into the Sharks youth (Demers/Braun) he better reel in non UFAs that will stay with the team beyond this season.

Yea, Im not really likeing that they gave up mins 2nd rounder at all for him...

 

[abaskin18]

Certainly one of the type of players that fills a need for the team. If he helps solidify the 3rd line and/or helps the PK noticeably he'll be worth the pick.

Judgement TBD...

 

[Cbrower91]

He had 18 goals the previous season with the Bolts, he will have a little more support on the the sharks, i wouldnt be shocked to see him hit 10 goals by seasons end.

But is it worth the valuable asset in Minns 2nd rounder that couldve been used in a package for a top 6 guy that can score?? Benn Fairy-O has more goals then his guy in half the games played. Im not baggin on the guy that SJ got & what he can bring to the bottom lines, but I dont think he's worth what they gave up for him
