Figured we needed a running trade list for this season brought about by the first two announced 2017 trades:

 

Nothing earth shattering :

BREAKING: #SJSharks acquire Buddy Robinson, Zack Stortini & 2017 draft pick from @Senators in exchange for Tommy Wingels.

 

Deleted the duplicate thread

 

This opens up some cap space for the Sharks

Why trade for him when we have Gorges coming back in the near future?

Seriously, he's no star, but on the 3rd pair Nesterov is a clear, clear upgrade to 4 and 41. No idea what the possible downside of giving up a 6th and a garbage prospect for this guy is in the short term or in the long term.

It sucks, but I just think Murray believes in the team he has assembled--even the depth pieces. He shouldn't, but he does.

I don't have specific quotes to give you, but I seem to remember some interviews near the beginning of the season where he implied otherwise, specifically about the defense.  Basically, they were "I could make some moves that might help a little right now, but wouldn't help - and could hurt - them in their long-term potential (i.e., when Jack, Sam, etc, are ready to make the real push for the Cup)" type comments.

I remember these too, but he'd have a tough time convincing me that this move would hurt at any point in the future. Especially since it might help win now, which certainly would be good for those guys.

He may picture it as a *sideways* move, as I do. Just a shuffle of the same. If a team took Gorges/Molson and his contract with a move like this and TM didn't take it, then there is reason to wonder what his intentions are.

Funny but I don't think he does. JMO. I don't think he is , in his mind, done with building this team.

Dad joke of the year material here

My jokes are ready then, just gotta work on the other part.

 

Stone from Arizona to Calgary for a 3rd and conditional 5th.

Meh, depth D for Calgary, but that price was in the ball park.

I read this is "Strome" at first and had to do a severe double take.
