Sharks Eye Panarin Trade as Playoff Push Gains Momentum
San Jose has inquired about Artemi Panarin, and the winger would consider a contract extension if traded, preferring teams where he can stay beyond 2025-26. The Sharks have surged this season behind Macklin Celebrini and could use Panarin to boost their offense and help develop young scorers, with their GM Mike Grier’s Rangers ties and a strong prospect pool giving them leverage; Panarin reportedly favors the Eastern Conference but hasn’t ruled out San Jose.
