Franchise NHL Trade SJ/STL

[Burkes Boys]

To Blues 12.1m
Tyler Seguin, $7.2m (2013-2017)
Brenden Dillon, $0.2m (2012-2014)
Brent Burns, $4.7m (2012-2015)

To Sharks 11.3m
Patrick Berglund, $6.0m (2014-2015)
Carlo Colaiacovo, $2.5m (2014-2015) Not playing these days
Jaroslav Halak, $2.8m (2013-2016)

Sharks were circling the water for a goaltender. We add one but have to deal a substantial part of our core to land Halak. The toughest player to lose in this deal is Burns who is a stud muffin of a player. I imagine the Blues are diversifying their roster to unlock points that are sitting on the bench when their two goaltenders start the same night. I really didn't want to add Carlo but Ripper made me take the salary. At least the dollar figures line up. Good trade for both teams.

Over to you Rip!

I accept.

I am not a fan of this leagues scoring and can't understand why goalies are worth twice as much as players. Having said that, I trade one to try and field a full line up. I appreciate BB talking Coliacivo to make the deal official.

Best of luck

Teams have given a lot more for a goalie as talented as Halak, but I see this deal as pretty fair and even considering our league.

San Jose has been busy (now I understand your trade offer Burke).

Last season this deal would've been a clean and clear win for the Sharks when we started 2 netminders. This year it's a different beast and with teams only starting 1 goalie it makes good sense to sell your extra starter for a strong package of everyday skaters. I checked the stats and Blues only capitalized on 35 of Halak's 57 points whereas they will be able to start all 3 players they receive to get a maximum of

26 Burns
22 Dillon
26 Seguin
74 points total

I give the win to the Blues for doing their homework and trading for their 3 new top scorers and unlocking $2.5 Million by dealing unsigned NHL UFA Colaiacovo. Nice trade St.Louis!

I like what Izaman and Dickie had to say.



I think the deal is fair and square. Both these guys are making things happen! My Hawks need more challengers in the West. LOL

Dickie don't forget are also getting Berglund in the deal and even tho he comes with a big fat price tag he still puts up decent pts nightly. As for Carlo just consider his worthless cap hit an extension of Jaro's contract. LOL
