Dell remains as Sharks backup, with heavier workload likely

SAN JOSE – Whether Aaron Dell saw a report on Tuesday about the Sharks still searching for a backup goaltender to replace him is uncertain. But even if he did, he would have paid it no mind.

General manager Doug Wilson told the 27-year-old on Monday that his club wasn’t in the market for another goalie ahead of Wednesday’s noon NHL trade deadline. Dell appreciated the heads up.

“There was a lot of talk about us looking for a goalie, and I think that shows a lot of character for him to clear my head of that,” Dell said.
