Sharks re-sign Nichol, Wallin
By The Associated Press, cbc.ca, Updated: June 26, 2010 2:30 PM
The San Jose Sharks signed two more of their potential free agents Saturday before they hit the open market, agreeing to one-year deals with forward Scott Nichol and defenceman Niclas Wallin.
General manager Doug Wilson wanted to lock up both players before they were eligible to become unrestricted free agents on July 1. The Sharks signed star forwards Patrick Marleau and Joe Pavelski to four-year deals earlier in the week. The team would still like to sign forward Manny Malhotra before he can become a free agent next week.
The Sharks have decided to let one key free agent leave. Wilson announced earlier in the week that the team would not offer longtime goaltender Evgeni Nabokov a contract.
Nichol quickly became a fan favorite in his one season in San Jose, playing a physical, gritty game that the Sharks had been lacking.
He set career highs in points (19), assists (15) and games played (79) last season and finished first in the NHL by winning 60.6 percent of his faceoffs. He was also 12th in the League with 226 hits.
