If the Sharks don’t re-sign John Klingberg, then who plays on the right? -
Fear the Fin has started running through the player reviews, but we thought we would take a brief pause to take a deeper look at defenseman John Klingberg and who could replace him as many San Jose Sharks fans have called for at the end of this season. Klingberg was good for the Sharks … at times. At other times … well … fans had concerns. Many have hoped that they don’t see him back in teal again. However, that doesn’t solve the Sharks’ defensive problem. As of this writing (and I’ll admit that this article was penned in mid-May before I headed out on vacation), the Sharks have exactly two defensemen under contract who are expected to play in the NHL next season, and neither of them shoots from the right side. Dmitry Orlov can play on the right side. Sam Dickinson cannot. We think that Luca Cagnoni will play with the Sharks next season, but he’s not a right-shot. Eric Pohlkamp shoots from the right. We hope he
