Are Sharks Trading Kurtis Gabriel?

Will Kurtis Gabriel be on the move?

Per Elliotte Friedman, don’t be surprised if the San Jose Sharks deal Gabriel at the Trade Deadline.

“San Jose has been contacted by a few teams,” Friedman said tonight. “You could see him being an effective post-season player. I’ve heard there’s some interest out there. I wouldn’t be surprised if he moves.”

On Mar. 23, Friedman reported that Gabriel “probably gets a one-way contract next season.” If the impending UFA does receive that contract, it might not be from the San Jose Sharks.

The Trade Deadline is this Monday at 12 PM PT. The San Jose Sharks have already made one significant move, sending Devan Dubnyk to Colorado this morning:
