## Resource

San Jose Sharks pull off a savvy trade, acquiring defenseman Michael Kesselring from Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a pair of future first-round picks — the 20th and 27th selections in the 2026 NHL Draft. Kesselring, a 26-year-old in his final year of contract, underwhelmed with just two assists in 34 games last season. The Sharks, who surged to fifth in their division this year, are clearly building for the future, while Buffalo, fresh off their first playoff run since 2011, hopes to keep momentum alive. This deal could be a turning point for both teams — watch Kesselring’s impact as the Sharks aim higher. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
