Walman? Zetterlund?!? Our Sharks’ Trade Deadline Reaction

The San Jose Hockey Now Podcast is sponsored by Bring Hockey Back!

What did we think of the San Jose Sharks’ Trade Deadline?

No doubt, GM Mike Grier dropped some bombs, what did we think of all the Sharks’ moves, like the surprising Jake Walman and Fabian Zetterlund trades?

We discuss all the possible reasons behind the Jake Walman deal and why Grier might have sold a player at the peak of his value. (4:08)

The Zetterlund trade to the Ottawa Senators caused quite an outpouring of emotion from the San Jose Sharks’ fanbase. How do we see the value, both on and off the ice, that was traded for Zetterlund? Keegan has been watching a lot of Zack Ostapchuk and likes what he sees…but he’s also sad to lose fan favorite Zetterlund. Also, what does Sheng think that the contract asks were from Zetterlund and the Sharks? (18:35)

We cover all the other trades briefly, including a Sheng favorite that got traded. Hint: It’s not Luke Kunin! (46:05)

Finally, we give our Trade Deadline grades for the San Jose Sharks. (1:04:43)
