As previously reported the San Jose Sharks have called up Marcus Sorensen from their AHL affiliate the San Jose Barracuda. This news is according to both Cap Friendly and the AHL transactions page. Even though the team has yet to announce the move I think that the chances of seeing Marcus Sorensen make his NHL debut on the road trip are incredibly high.
While we have seen the Sharks make plenty of use of “paper transactions” this season this one is likely not one of them. Simply put, Marcus Sorensen’s cap hit is higher than Kevin Labanc who appears to have been sent to the Barracuda to stay for the time being.
