So Nabby isnt being resigned, obviously. "Cap issues", which is legit in hockey, they dont want to pay him $5 or $6 mill to be inconsistent when it mattered most. That's not just his fault, of course; the rest of the team was inconsistent too. But the story of this years playoffs, in terms of team salary, is a team can get better goalies, cheaper. Experience doesn't mean shit the last two years, Craig fucking Anderson, Jonas Hiller (is that the European version of Jonah Hill?), Antti Niemi, and that's just goalies the sharks have faced in the last 2 years. That being said, Nabokov is one of the greatest Sharks ever, and has never fully gotten the love he should have.
What a sick score too, 7-4.
Different sources are saying hes gonna go the Flyers, which is interesting because Brian Boucher was our backup 2 years ago and then was on the Flyers team this year, and made it to the Stanley Cup Finals. If the Flyers want him before July 1st, which is before the free agency period begins, the Flyers give us a 7th round pick. Dope.
Nabby gone means Marleau and Pavelski re-signed. If you don't why thats good I don't wanna hear shit from you.
Nichol and Wallin were both re-signed . Nichol is a fucking sav, dude hits someone every chance he gets, he's a wildman. Wallin is "tough" as GM Doug Wilson would say, playing with an injury in the playoffs, but he played like 3 whole playoffs games, and who doesn't "play with an injury" in the playoffs? Wallin does have a ring with Carolina, and hes not gonna make much money, so its an ok signing.
We need to sign Manny Malhotra, who, like Nichol, was new last year, and signed on a 1 year basis. Id say they more than earned their yobs. Malhotra, who's married to Steve Nash's sister, turned down a 4 year year, $8 million dollar deal with the Atlanta Thrashers to sign with the Sharks for a year for $750,000. What the fuck does that tell you. Malholtra and Nichol win a shitload of faceoffs and Malhotra can shoot too.
