Which San Jose UFAs Could Get Contract Extensions? | Klingberg Here To Stay?

Will the San Jose Sharks retain their key unrestricted free agents? JD Young analyzes the potential for re-signing John Klingberg, Jeff Skinner, and Alex Wennberg after the upcoming NHL season. Klingberg's offensive skills and power play quarterbacking make him a prime candidate for an extension, despite recent hip issues. Young suggests a possible two-year deal around $4.5-5 million annually if he stays healthy. Skinner's goal-scoring ability could earn him a new contract, with his future tied to the development of young Sharks wingers. Wennberg's situation is complex, balancing his value as a third-line center against potential trade returns. The Sharks' favorable cap situation for 2026-27 allows flexibility in re-signing veterans while planning for future stars. Young also touches on other UFAs like Mario Ferraro, assessing their chances of staying with the team. Tune in for an in-depth look at the Sharks' roster decisions and how they might shape the team's future in the NHL.
