"They're on the same page, that's where they are. Both side met last week, Karlsson's reps from Newport Sports and San Jose management. They came out of that meeting saying 'yes, let's try and get a trade done here.'" LeBrun said.
He added, "Erik Karlsson wants to play for a contender and the Sharks are rebuilding. So they really have a unified vision on where this needs to go. But you mentioned the contract, is there a team out there that can eat enough of that deal or how much are the Sharks willing to eat? Of course, Karlsson has the full-no movement and will have the last say on if he's comfortable with the trade partner. No guarantee this deal gets done, but a few teams already kicking tires in the last few days."
