Timo Meier says it makes sense that teams would want to talk extension if they can trade for him
Curtis Pashelka: San Jose Sharks forward Timo Meier on Elliotte Friedman’s report that the Sharks would allow teams to talk to Meier’s camp about a contract extension.
“I knew that teams, if there’s a trade, that teams are going to want to talk extension, so I think it makes sense. Obviously, you hear the rumors, but for me, it’s nothing too crazy. It’s just trying to focus on the games and don’t get distracted too much by that stuff.”
