I’ll cut to the chase, the only logical option is Arizona Coyotes forward Radim Vrbata, the 35-year-old pending unrestricted free agent.
He is currently riding a nine-game point streak, with 11 points during that span, and that will certainly raise his stock.
Vrbata is beyond affordable at $1M, and the Coyotes could even eat some of that salary as well with the Sharks up against the cap. At that cap hit, his position and production, it’s a no-brainer.
Overall, he’s got 15 goals and 46 points in 61 games on a bad Coyotes team, which would be fifth and third on the Sharks, respectively.
