San Jose Sharks

Mozda su ugovori ostali isti,u sta duboko sumnjam Joe je sigurno dobio povisicu

Sharks sign G Antero Niittymaki to 2-year deal



The San Jose Sharks have signed goalie Antero Niittymaki to a two-year, $4 million deal.

The Sharks moved quickly Thursday to replace longtime goalie Evgeni Nabokov(notes) after telling him last month they wouldn’t re-sign him.

Niittymaki spent last season in Tampa Bay after playing four full NHL seasons with the Philadelphia Flyers. The Finnish goalie went 21-18 with a 2.87 goals-against average last year.

Niittymaki joins Thomas Greiss and minor-leaguer Alex Stalock in the Sharks’ goaltending competition.

Nabokov has been the Sharks’ starting goalie for most of the past decade, but San Jose decided he was too expensive. The Sharks instead signed forwards Patrick Marleau and Joe Pavelski to long-term contract extensions.

Iako je finac i golman, mislim da nije neki ulov i da se nece pokazati mnogo bolje od Nabokova, pogotovo ako Sarksi malo ne srede odbranu.
Zanimljivo je, uopste, videti kako ce Ajkule igrati sledece sezone, i da li ce ponovo biti na vrhu zapada..

Bas su se usrecili sa ovim cudom od golmana Njima treba konstantnost i jak karakter u presudnim momentima,a ovj nema ni jedno ni drugo Slazem se da bi trebalo poraditi i na jacanju odbrane,posebno nakon povlacenja Blakea.Potpisali su matorca Wallina,ali tesko da ce im on mnogo pomoci

Ja mislim da oni nece biti dobri kao prosle godine, vec se oseca pad u citavoj fransizi. Jos kad vidis kako se drugi timovi na zapadu pojacavaju..

Hjalmarsson receives offer sheet from Sharks



The San Jose Sharks will force the defending Stanley Cup champions to make another tough monetary decision.

The Sharks signed restricted free agent defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson to a four-year, $14 million offer sheet on Friday. The Blackhawks will have seven days to match the offer.

Hjalmarsson, 23, was a valuable member of Chicago's first Cup winner since 1961. In his first full NHL season, he registered 2 goals, 17 points and a plus-9 rating in 77 regular-season games. He then added 1 goal, 8 points and a plus-9 rating in 22 postseason games.

That included a four-game sweep of San Jose in the Western Conference Finals.

"We feel Niklas is a top-three defenseman in the National Hockey League," Sharks Executive Vice President and General Manager Doug Wilson said. "We saw his abilities first-hand in the playoffs last season and he was an important piece of a Stanley Cup-winning team. He is a solid player that would be a good fit on our team now and in the future."

Hjalmarsson, a fourth-round selection by the Blackhawks in the 2005 Entry Draft, has career totals of 3 goals and 21 points in 111 regular-season games and 1 goal and 9 points in 39 playoff games.

The Blackhawks have been paying the price for winning a championship in recent weeks, shedding salary by trading players such as Dustin Byfuglien and Kris Versteeg to try to get under the salary cap for the coming season.

If they choose not to match the Sharks' offer to Hjalmarsson, they will receive San Jose's first- and third-round picks in the 2011 Entry Draft.

E sad. Dobar je on, ali ne bas toliko..
Da li su se to Sarksi konacno odlucili da poprave odbranu?

A Chicago definitivno upropastava sampionski tim

Pa morali su malo da se olaksaju, zbog selerija..

On nije top three u Chicago,a ne u ligi

San Hoze Šarksi nastavljaju sa pravljenjem tima za sledeću sezonu, pošto je otišao prvi golman Jevgeni Nabokov.

Produžen je ugovor sa bekom Džejsonom Demersom, koji će u sledeće dve godine zaraditi 2.5 miliona dolara.

Ali, što je još važnije, Dag Vilson je u poodmakloj fazi pregovora oko produženja ugovora sa napadačima Devinom Setogučijem i Džoom Torntonom i to bi uskoro trebalo da bude rešeno.

22-godišnji Demers je imao odlično ruki sezonu sa 27 poena na 68 utakmica i veruju da je on budući stub odbrane, pošto je Rob Blejk otišao u penziju. San Hoze je počišćen u finalu zapada od kasnijeg šampiona Čikaga.

----------------------------------------------
Veliki Dzo i nije zasluzio novi ugovor bas.. Ja mu ga ne bi dao (barem ne veliki).
No, svi se nadamo (pa i ja), da ce ove sezone uraditi nesto u plej ofu sa SJ. Pod pretpostavkom da ce uci u isti, jer ce Zapad sledece godine biti stvarno ono "Wild, wild west.." (logo Minesote sam stavio iz zezanja..)

Ova godina im je bila mozda i zadnja prilika za osvajanje Stanleya Evo vidim da se spominje eventualno dovodjenje Niemia,mada je to daleko od realizacije

Niemi nema mnogo izbora.. Dobri timovi imaju skoro pun kep spejs, losiji onako, ali da li on hoce u losije?
Osim toga, tek nekoliko timova jos trazi startnog golmana, vecina je vec na cisto po tom planu, tako da..
Posle prosle sezone, ne mogu da ga zamislim kao 2. golmana negde, pa cak ni kao coveka koji deli minutazu..

Sharks are close to signing Jamal Mayers



The San Jose Sharks say they are close to finalizing a deal with free-agent forward Jamal Mayers.

Mayers split time last season with Toronto and Calgary. He had three goals, 11 assists and 131 penalty minutes in 71 games.

Sharks general manager Doug Wilson said Tuesday he believes Mayers will mesh well with San Jose’s forwards.

Mayers has played 737 career games with St. Louis, Toronto and Calgary. He has 81 goals, 107 assists and 969 penalty minutes.

Evo ga Kolimorov istomisljenik..


Sharks GM Doug Wilson says teams spending money on high profile goalies aren't always getting more bang for the buck...

Sinoc sam sanjao da su Sharksi uzeli SC

Jel to bio kosmar..

Booooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...


Evo bombe. Antti Niemi leti put San Hozea, gde ce, kako se navodi, prihvatiti jednogodisnji ugovor sa Sharksima vredan 2 miliona $.

Da podsetimo, Cikago je ovog leta odlucio da pusti Niemija usled veliki problema sa platama igraca, i cinjenice da je arbitrazer odredio platu 2.75 miliona $, ukoliko Blackhawksi zele da zadrze golmana koji im je doneo Stenli kup. Zbog toga se Niemi sada seli u tim koji bi mogao da bude najveci konkurent Cikagu na Zapadu.

Zanimljivo je da ce se u Sharksima pridruziti zemljaku i kolegi na golu, Anteru Niittymakiju, koji je u San Hoze dosao odmah po otvaranju prelaznog roka za slobodne igrace, i koga je tim potpisao na 2 godine, za ukupno 4 milona $.

Zanimljivo ce, dakle, biti na golu Ajkula ove sezone.

polomicu kase od kristala kakkva stvar

Mnogo mocno,mnoooooogo!Samo sto bre bas u SSarkse?Smetace golovima Daksa.

SymphonyX ::polomicu kase od kristala kakkva stvar

Opet si pio..

Inace, ovu vest sam postavio na portal u rekordnom roku.. Mislim da smo brzi od NHL.com

Sada samo da vidimo kako ce u Sarksima raspodeliti minute dvojci Finaca, s obzirom da Nitimaki igra za istu godisnju platu, ali ima ugovor na 2 godine..

gube od Mannheima!

Dešava se to. Blackhawksi su pukli od Davosa lane.

Pobedise,ali jedv na penale
SJS vs Man 3:2 pen

Nije to nikakvo preveliko iznenadjenje.. Prvo zato sto se NHL-ovci mnogo ***** (), drugo zato sto se igra u gostima, trece zato sto se igra na vecem ledu, cetvrto zbog sudijskog kriterijuma (predpostavljam)...
Ja bas ocekujem, recimo, da Kejnsi i Kojoti puknu protiv Rige i SKA.. Ma, sigurno ce, igram to na kladzi bre..
Lake pare za gladan narod, kad vam Dzomba kaze..
