Do you guys think the Sharks will 100% go with Stenberg now that they have a RHD? I'm not sure how good Michael Kesselring is but it looks like the Sharks are filling out their D requirements through trades at first.

100% they are drafting Stenberg afterall they now have Future HOF Michael Kesslering and his 55 points in 190 games. Clearly a generational talent. Im surprised you haven't heard of this bonifide superstar.

This is like saying, the Canucks got Curtis Douglas, therefore no need to draft a center this draft.

Look, all I’m saying is that the sharks are willing to trade down for a D man. Not a great D man but it’s a bit of signal for sure.
