Some defenseman that the San Jose Sharks could be looking at
Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now: The San Jose Sharks sit five points out of the wild card spot, and they could be looking to add a defenseman. Some potential options for the Sharks.
Dougie Hamilton – New Jersey Devils – Two years left at $9 million and a 10-team trade list. The Sharks aren’t on his trade list. They were interested last offseason.
Justin Faulk – St. Louis Blues – A year left at $6.5 millin and a 15-team no-trade list. Might cost a first-round pick, maybe a high pick and a prospect. Faulk would likely cost more than Hamilton to acquire, so Hamilton may have more appeal to the Sharks.
Mason Lohrei – Boston Bruins – The 25-year-old has another year left and may need a change of scenery. Has been healthy scratched.
Zach Whitecloud – Calgary Flames – Getting a lot more ice time in Calgary. Two years left on his contract at $2.75 million. Two scouts said it may cost a second-round pick and a prospect.
Logan Stanley – Winnipeg Jets – A 6-foot-7, left-shot pending UFA defenseman. Not playing top-four minutes in Winnipeg.
