SJHN Daily: Sharks’ Trade Deadline Candidates, Askarov & Poturalski Are AHL All-Stars

As the NHL trade market heats up, experts have different takes on the tradability of the San Jose Sharks.
The Athletic views the Sharks’ trade prospects much more highly with five players on their top-30 list.
Mikael Granlund – whose 35 points through 41 games puts him at nearly a point-per-game pace – sits the highest among them at No. 17.
He’s accompanied by Cody Ceci, Mario Ferraro, Alexandar Georgiev, and Barclay Goodrow. Ceci and Georgiev will be UFAs this offseason, while Goodrow and Ferraro’s contracts extend farther out.
But on the other hand, Daily Faceoff’s top twenty-five has no Sharks on it.
