The San Jose Sharks have plenty of pending UFAs they could move out

The Fourth Period: David Pagnotta on DFO Rundown said that San Jose Sharks are willing to move some pieces out to add to their young depth and draft pick capital.

“I don’t think it’s changed, by any stretch,” Pagnotta said. “Look, there’s a reason why they added contracts like Ryan Ellis and Carey Price (to stay above the cap floor if contracts are moved out). They have assets they’re willing to move.

They signed a couple defenceman to one-year contracts, brought in Nick Leddy, as well, because the plan was, going into this season, this is the next step in our rebuild, we’re going to do better, but we still want to fill our cupboard up, we’re still going through these rebuild, steps.”
