Frank Seravalli of TSN: There have been multiple teams that have inquired about San Jose Sharks forwards Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau. Would either be willing to be traded?
Marleau is more likely than Thornton to be willing to go chase a Stanley Cup somewhere. Marleau is making the league minimum and has already played elsewhere.
The Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning have internally talked about the idea of acquiring Thornton. If Thornton were to okay a move, it would likely be to a Western Conference team. Potential fits could be the Colorado Avalanche, Dallas Stars, and the Vegas Golden Knights.
