The Sharks have expressed interest in bringing in Radko Gudas, a veteran defenseman known for his physical play and leadership qualities.

His experience could help stabilize a young Sharks defense that is in the midst of a rebuilding phase.
Meanwhile, the Sharks are also evaluating their options regarding other potential signings and trades. With the draft in the rearview mirror, General Manager Mike Grier is keen on positioning the team for the future. The Sharks are focused on acquiring players who can not only contribute now but also be part of a long-term plan. This includes keeping an eye on the market for impactful veterans who can mentor younger players.

As the off-season progresses, the Pacific Division teams continue to make strategic decisions that could impact the upcoming NHL season.
