Free Agency is approaching San Jose Sharks general manager Doug Wilson doesn’t seem to be in a negotiating mood. Of the four pending restricted free agents on the team, just one has been issued a qualifying offer from the club.
Noah Gregor, drafted by the Sharks in the fourth round of the 2016 NHL draft, has been issued a qualifying offer. Due to not meeting the threshold of professional games, Gregor has 10.2(c) status, meaning other teams cannot offer sheet the 22-year-old forward.
Goaltender Adin Hill, acquired by the Sharks on July 17 from the Arizona Coyotes, was issued a qualifying offer by his former club, allowing the Sharks to retain his negotiating rights.
