Shawn Simpson: If the San Jose Sharks are not able to extend pending UFA defenseman Brenden Dillon, they need to trade him.
Kevin Kurz of The Athletic: The Sharks will be without Logan Couture for at least the next month and a half, a huge blow to the team. The odds of the Sharks getting back into a playoff spot weren’t great before the injury, now their chances are worse.
Defenseman Brenden Dillon will likely be gone before the deadline, and the same could be said for forward Melker Karlsson.
