On Sunday afternoon, the San Jose Sharks and forward Alexander Wennberg agreed to a three-year, $18- million contract extension. For the 31-year-old center, it was a nice payday for a player with 26 points in the first 41 games of the season.

Considering the similar statistical profiles, the extension of Wennberg prompted some discussion about what a potential Christian Dvorak extension might look like with the Philadelphia Flyers, and it appears there may be real truth to those discussions.
