- Reporting indicates San Jose retained Wennberg’s no-trade protection, cooling prior trade chatter from interested clubs.
- Wennberg has 26 points in 41 games this season, anchoring a key center role for an improved Sharks lineup.
- The Sharks are 20-18-3 and sit just outside a Western Conference wild-card position.
- With this contract settled, insiders suggest GM Mike Grier could take a hybrid deadline approach by exploring moves on defense while adding pieces that fit the core.
