Huskinsról, és egy picit a csapatról, deadline előtti cserékről:
"The 30-year-old defenseman has only played more than 33 games once during his three-year NHL career, didn’t appear in a single game for the Sharks after being dealt at the trade deadline, and made $650,000 last season. To put it simply, a $1.7 million annual salary doesn’t make any sense.
Bad deal aside, why would the Sharks sign Huskins when they already had their top six defensemen under contract (assuming Blake has been re-signed)? Maybe a higher-priced rearguard is on the way out, or maybe Wilson is trying to salvage something after his latest horrendous trade-deadline swap. He’s made a habit of giving up picks and prospects for nothing over the last three years. Just take a look at the list.
Acquired: Bill Guerin, Craig Rivet, Brian Campbell, Travis Moen, Kent Huskins
Gave up: Ville Nieminen, Jay Barriball, 2007 1st round pick, Josh Gorges, 2007 1st round pick, Steve Bernier, 2008 1st round pick, Nick Bonino, Timo Pielmeier
Left with: Kent Huskins(?), 2009 2nd round pick, 2010 2nd round pick
Maybe Wilson feels he has to overpay Huskins, simply so he has one NHL player to show for his recent trend of atrocious trade deadline acquisitions. Meanwhile, Guerin just won a Stanley Cup with the Penguins, Campbell went to the Western Conference final with the Blackhawks, Rivet is the captain of the Sabres, and Moen is up for grabs.
For those keeping score at home, the Sharks have given up three first round picks, two NHL players, and three promising prospects in deadline deals over the last three seasons. They have two playoff series victories over that span, two second-round picks, and possibly an overpriced Kent Huskins to show for it." |
