NHL Trade: San Jose Sharks Quickly Flip Mike Hoffman To The Florida Panthers

Florida Panthers: Panthers GM Dale Tallon after acquiring Hoffman.

“Mike is a skilled, consistent and hard-working player who has proven himself to be a talented goal scorer in the NHL,” said Tallon. “His speed, experience and offensive abilities will bolster our top-six group.”

Stephen Whyno: Sharks GM Doug Wilson: “These transactions have also allowed us to add to our pool of draft selections, as well as free up a substantial amount of cap space for internal and external player options in the coming months.”

Thoughts from the media

Jameson Olive: “The #FlaPanthers send a 2019 second round pick, 2018 fourth round pick (via Vegas) and 2018 5th round pick to the #SJSharks for Hoffman.
