San Jose Sharks make this trade to unload an anchor of a contract that was supposed to get us some points for at least one more season but instead Niemi has bolted to the KHL and that $5.5 million cap hit for another 4yrs seems too heavy for our franchise to carry. I know the boys in Buffalo are laughing that they unloaded Antti sooner than later. We will take a serviceable contract like Lucic but maybe we'll "Corey Perry" him in the 2020 offseason if he can't get it together in 2019-20.Trade to SJMilan Lucic, $7.3m (2017-2021) Contract unloaded Round 2 - 2019 (from *)Round 4 - 2019Trade to FloridaAntti Niemi, $5.5m (2018-2022) Contract dump Kole Sherwood, $0.6m (2018-2020)PigsRule to confirm.
2 teams dealing their trash. LOL I love it!
