Does Erik Karlsson to the Pittsburgh Penguins make too much sense for it not to work? Hunter Hodies of Locked on Penguins joins to try and figure out a trade between the San Jose Sharks and the Penguins. We discuss the parallels between when the Sharks acquired Erik Karlsson from the Ottawa Senators and if the Penguins acquired the reigning Norris Trophy winner. Next, we discuss the fit between Karlsson and Pittsburgh and how Karlsson can help provide more offense. We also discuss Karlsson's lack of defense and how he was asked to carry the Sharks' offense. Finally, Hunter and JD try to hammer out a beneficial trade between both teams based on what the Sharks are looking for and what the Penguins have.

With free agency off to a running start, what teams are still left in a position to try and acquire three-time Norris Trophy winner Erik Karlsson? Start with the Carolina Hurricanes and why they would be the most difficult to pull off the trade with their lack of a "bad" contract and little space. Why, despite being over the cap, the Pittsburgh Penguins could still make it work, and why the Seattle Kraken would be the easiest to make the trade. Next, the San Jose Sharks sent Artemi Kniazev to the Winnipeg Jets for Leon Gawanke. Analyze the trade, why a numbers game on the left side made it tough for Kniazev, and what the Sharks are getting from Gawanke (12:00). Finally, what does Mike Grier still have left to do, and why signing a cheap veteran center would make sense after trading Steven Lorentz over the weekend (20:00).

Can the Sharks fix their blueline woes before their playoff hopes slip away for good?
