The San Jose Sharks have made a serious trade offer to acquire defenseman Simon Edvinsson, according to Elliotte Friedman. Detroit did not accept the initial proposal, though substantive trade discussions between the clubs have taken place. Multiple other teams, including the Boston Bruins, Nashville Predators, St. Louis Blues, and Seattle Kraken, have also reportedly evaluated Edvinsson.

Detroit is seeking a young center in return, while Sheng Peng speculates that top prospects Will Smith or Michael Misa could serve as centerpiece assets. Edvinsson is a restricted free agent who must sign an NHL contract by December 1 to play during the current season.
