This team is really new to me, because of the Giants outstanding season, I have been buying the SF Chronicle instead of the SJ Mercury News which means my offseason coverage was dramatically cut. Oh well, I'm ready to start ponying up for both.
Patrick White is godawful, he's been the Canucks whipping boy since Nonis drafted him (that god that fucker got shit-canned). The Canucks first round pick in the last draft outscored White by a wide margin last year. They played on the same team. However, because White is a college player the Sharks get a 2nd round pick if they don't sign him (which will happen). Rahimi is terrible too, he'll be lucky to find a spot in the AHL let alone the NHL. He's garbage.
