@RenoDave6 @NBCSSharks @Sheng_Peng Sharks are not serious contenders for at least another 2-3 years. Why do you care if the prospect is ready for the NHL asap? It’s about who will be the best in their prime and will fit with what Grier is trying to build. You are building a team in the end not a fantasy team.

@NBCSSharks @Sheng_Peng None of top draft eligible D-men Reid, Carels, etc are NHL ready and won't be for at least 2 to 3 years and won't make an impact for at least 4 - 5 years. So unless the Sharks see a franchise type #1 d-man in these two, it's not worth the wait.

@ProfHockeyYT Hot take but I actually prefer Nurse over Rielly. Obviously I hope Grier passes on both.

@Jerome_Berube Eagerly awaiting your draft rankings, need to know if ya'll agree with the consensus on the D rankings...

Interestingly, Claude Fable 5 is still terrible at answering basic strategy questions about video games. (Anybody who has played Bloodborne knows this suggestion makes absolutely no sense).

This is a priceless quote from Carels today: “I got called a psychopath this year on the ice. I thought that was a compliment, honestly.”

@KevinLacy22 Haven’t heard your thoughts on who the Sharks should pick at #2. If it was a D who do you prefer in this class?

@rapid_i_move @ProfHockeyYT Talking to team scouts/player agents, he has sources within the Sharks...He was the one that reported it would be Misa the morning of the 2026 draft after his source confirmed to him it would be Misa, when everyone else was saying Frondell. Again this is just his vibes as of now

This offseason has been very enlightening in showing, from a purely speculation perspective, how little these insiders know about the Sharks. Their sources may be good, but between Bobrovsky, Nurse and now Larkin, these musings are nonsense.

@sanlosesharks From Sheng at the combine live, his vibes at this moment after talking with people in the industry, is that it's between Reid and Carels for the Sharks at #2. Definitely prefer Reid, I will be concerned if Carels is the pick. Feels like a lower ceiling and LHD are not as valuable

Chase Reid is a good pick for the Sharks at 2 and I WILL die on this hill. Our largest needs are 1. breaking the puck out to avoid being hemmed in, putting pressure on a blue line that isn't good enough to weather it and 2. covering for our mistakes/turnovers off the rush.

@FowleBall15 Who do you prefer between Reid/Carels/Verhoeff assuming the Sharks do go D?

This has got to be the worst kind of defenseman profile to chase early in the draft. The NHL hasn't been able to project defensive ability well. And I don't think "shutdown defenseman now" = "shutdown defenseman in the NHL." Shutdown NHLers have diff. skillset as teens.

Gavin McKenna is having dinner with just the Canucks this week at the Combine. No Maple Leafs or #SJSharks. I doubt that means anything for his draft stock, but it's interesting

@rurounimod Carels points in the WHL feel inflated, his offense doesn't seem like it will translate to the NHL. Definitely prefer Reid over him, I feel he has a much higher ceiling. Carels feels very similar to Dickinson to me but more physical. High floor but low ceiling. I am concerned

Need to do more watching and digging but my current sense is that Carels over Reid would be a mistake. Have heard some encouraging things about Carels, but consensus is much more confident projecting Reid as an offensive force.

@halfwall_hockey Carels feels very disappointing at pick #2. Nothing elite about him and feels so similar to Dickinson. High floor low ceiling, not a fan

Predicted Carels after the lottery. Could definitely still be the pick given the obvious PG connection and his overall two-way game. Alright back to the honeymoon

#SJSharks are taking Carson Carels to dinner on Thursday. One of a few dinners, I'm sure. San Jose obviously has their choice of cream of the crop prospects with the No. 2 pick in the 2026 Draft

@Sheng_Peng Carels profiles very similarly to Dickinson but with more physicality. Very high floor but lower ceiling compared to the other D in my opinion, would not be a fan of the pick especially at #2

@FowleBall15 Their faces haha, Stenberg is a stud by I’m not confident he is far greater than Bjork, considering the age difference and Bjork being Centre

I am pretty sure that Stenberg is more likely to be an NHL star than the remaining forwards. I am not very sure that Reid will be better than Ryan Lin or Villeneuve or even Rudolph.

@MyFryHole Still early but Helenius looking like a really good pick at #14 in 2024 for the Sabres. Remember the Sharks had that pick and traded up for Dickinson….
