sharks_nj1bToday is the day! Expect something to break over next couple hours as the #SJSharks Ice for final 2 hours before trade deadline.

The NHL trade deadline is here, and one of the biggest names that is expected to still be available is New York Islanders left winger Thomas Vanek. While we wait to see whether or not Vanek will be moved, there are reports circulating that the San Jose Sharks are “aggressively” pursuing the forward.
