yave1964 Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Blackwood lost the net in Jersey last year, was just dealt to the sharks for a sixth round pick. Sharks get a talented goalie in need of a change for not a lot. He replaced reimer and will split the net with kahkonen. He lost his game to injuries and confidence issues over the last two years, little risk for the sharks smart pickup by GM Grier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
