I'm okay with it. A 30 year old Hertl will be on the decline by the time we're finished with this rebuild.
I don't know why people are upset. The Sharks are not contending for the next 3 anyways. They need to keep making their roster as bad as possible so they can finish with a top 2 pick for each of the next 3 years. By theThe time the Sharks are good again, Hertl will be in his mid 30's and probally a 3rd liner.

Trading Hertl is fine, but it's giving up the two thirds + for a high first rounder IMO that's kinda whack.

We retained a portion of his salary, that should have been enough
Sharks a farm team now? Yikes awful trade with Hertl due to salary retention
why are u guys so mad?
we are in a total rebuild.. who cares if hertl went to Vegas.
We got picks and that's all that matters

It's a major WTF. You don't trade a top player like this to a rival. It doesn't matter if we wouldn't be competing. It's still not a good deal.

We better have a real good plan toward working to be contenders again cause I sure don't see it.

He could have traded him to anyone but the f**king Knights.

Hertl did have a NMC, unsure if other deals were out there, or if Vegas was the only one he was approached about and waived.

I don't mind trading Hertl. You dont really retain players that can impact your draft positions during a rebuild (i.e. win games), unless your rebuild is about to be over. We aren't close yet. It's the deal itself I kinda have an issue with.

IMO We are so far from relevancy, we don't have a rival right now.
So I guess we got back Vegas' 2023 1st Rounder, David Edstrom, 19, a big forward, to pair with fellow swede William Eklund, who projects to be a 1st or 2nd liner and we got a 2025 1st round pick as well.

Not great but not a bad return either and if Edstrom turns out to be a very good player then I like the trade. Just hate the idea of Hertl in a knights uni.

What makes this deal not as good is the Sharks also sent Vegas two third round picks... cmon bruh
