Ben Hutton
Hutton only has eight points (two goals and six assists), but he does have 67 blocks and could contribute as a fifth or sixth defenceman on a contender.
Erik Gudbranson
Gulbranson only has four goals and five assists but is a gritty player who has 88 hits, 54 blocks and has spent 95 minutes in the penalty box. He comes with a cap hit of $4 million next season. [image source: Ducks- YouTube]
Korbinian Holzer
Holzer has a goal and three assists this season to go along with 77 hits and 75 blocks.
Ryan Miller
The 39-year-old netminder has six wins with a GAA of 2.86 and a save percentage of .912. He has tons of playoff experience and could be a useful backup to a contender.
Patrick Marleau
The Sharks will only trade Marleau if he wishes to be traded to a true contender with a chance to win the Stanley Cup. Marleau has posted ten goals and assists apiece. [image source: mark6mauno- Flickr]
Brenden Dillon
Dillon has a goal and 12 assists with 163 hits. Despite being a pending free agent at seasons end, some speculate that the Sharks could net a second-round pick in return. [image source: NHL- YouTube]
Aaron Dell
Dell is having a great year recording 12 wins with a 2.74 GAA and a .913 save percentage. He is a free agent at the end of the year.
