Insider Makes a Major Statement Regarding an Erik Karlsson Trade
Erik Karlsson has been waiting to be traded for a long time now. It could finally happen as rumors are starting to spread.
The 33-year-old defenseman, who has already has two Norris Trophies in his pocket, delivered a career-high performance, tallying an impressive 25 goals and 76 assists, accumulating a total of 101 points in 82 games. His contribution was nothing short of remarkable.
Recently, reports have surfaced indicating that the Sharks' management is exploring the possibility of trading him. Pierre LeBrun disclosed the potential trade talks on TSN.
According to my information, the Sharks have met with Karlsson's representatives and both sides are on the same page. The Sharks and Karlsson's camp agree to work together to make a trade. - Pierre LeBrun
The collaboration between the two parties suggests that Karlsson's departure from San Jose may be imminent.
Sharks' General Manager Mike Grier has showed his commitment to making the trade happen by expressing a willingness to absorb a portion of Karlsson's $11.5 million salary.
This could help the potential buyers to send a big package to the Sharks for Karlsson.
