Credit Doug Wilson for getting the San Jose Sharks in a financial position to potentially add a marquee player in free agency.
The Sharks, looking to add some firepower to their lineup, sent a contingent, to meet with John Tavares and his agent in Los Angeles. Looking to make a strong impression in attempting to lure center, even Sharks owner Hasso Plattner joined the meeting.
Plattner does not make many appearances as Sharks’ owner, but his presence undoubtedly gave an impression on Tavares on his commitment to make the Sharks a Stanley Cup contender.
