Report: Sharks trade for veteran foward Jannik Hansen

SAN JOSE — The Sharks are reportedly adding to their depth at the forward position.

The Sharks have not made anything official, but TSN’s Bob McKenzie tweeted Tuesday night that they have acquired Jannik Hansen from the Vancouver Canucks for minor league forward Nikolay Goldobin and a conditional fourth-round draft pick.

Hansen, 30, had a modified no-trade clause and reportedly would only accept a trade to a handful of teams.

Hansen is healthy again after he missed six weeks with a lower body injury. He has one year left on a contract that carries a $2.
