Yesterday at San Jose Hockey Now, I dipped into how teams like the San Jose Sharks can get rid of their long contracts.
The Locked On Sharks guys ask: Is Mario Ferraro the best defensive defenseman on the Sharks?
In other San Jose Sharks news…
Matt Dumba, Oskar Lindblom, and San Jose Sharks legend Patrick Marleau were named finalists for the Masterton Trophy. (NHL)
Around the NHL…
The Hockey Diversity Alliance was formed one year ago:
One year ago today, NHL players of colour formed the Hockey Diversity Alliance.
One year later, we’re proud of our accomplishments. And we're as resolved as ever to end the racism and intolerance that we – and countless others – have faced throughout our lives and careers.
