Defensemen
Luke Green
Offensive defenseman with good size and skating ability but needs development time.
Luc Snuggerud
Snuggerud isn’t overly large but he plays a sound two-way game that features promising offensive and defensive elements.
Carl Dahlstrom
Stay-at-home defenseman, holds some value in multi-category leagues but don’t expect much offense. Projects as a top-six, shutdown defenseman.
Jeff Taylor
Taylor has pretty much squandered a shot as a top-four, puck-moving defenseman.
Ethan Prow
The late-blooming puck-mover has a window to carve out a modest NHL career as a decent point-producer with a defensive conscience. As a Group 6 UFA, it might not be with Pittsburgh.
Blake Siebenaler
Depth defenseman, in the minor leagues.
Oscar Fantenberg
Reliable bottom-pair defenseman who can chip in a bit offensively.
Karlis Cukste
Cukste is a long way off from being part of the Sharks plans. Might be worth a roster spot in the deepest of leagues with a strong freshman NCAA season and solid WJC tournament.
