SJ has trade interest, but sources say Atkinson isn't keen on a move to the Sharks,” Darren Dreger of TSN reported. “Philly will eat a good chunk of the final year of his contract. Buyout is also an option, as is keeping him in the mix.”
New head coach Ryan Warsofsky is hopeful that the team is on the mend after an absolutely brutal stretch these last couple of seasons. He is confident competitive hockey will return to the SAP Center soon.”
The Sharks have missed the postseason for five consecutive years, finishing 19-54 in the latest NHL campaign. The arrival of Boston University star Macklin Celebrini signifies a potential positive turning point in their rebuild.
Atkinson, with a no-trade list in his contract, may need convincing to join the Sharks, who are targeting him as a valuable addition to aid in the team's resurgence.
