With the San Jose Sharks recently making moves including paying Erik Karlsson $11 million per season, this puts them in a cap crunch. San Jose isn’t out of the woods just yet despite dumping Justin Braun to the Philadelphia Flyers. Tonight being the NHL Draft, we should expect New Jersey Devils GM Ray Shero to make some fireworks. If the indications are that Shero drafts Jack Hughes as a top-two center, then pursuing a solid veteran winger in Timo Meier makes sense.
Timo Meier has 54 goals and 108 points with the San Jose Sharks the past three seasons.
