The San Jose Sharks are expected to become active heading toward the 2025 NHL Entry Draft, and one thing they may look to do this summer is add some veteran depth to their lineup. While they will likely gauge the trade market, they may be big spenders when free agency opens up, and one veteran forward they should target if he tests the open market is Jamie Benn. Benn, who is 35 years old, scored 16 goals and added 33 assists for 49 points through 80 games this season, which comes out to a 0.61 points-per-game average. Throughout his career, he has scored 399 goals and added 557 assists for 956 points through 1192 games, which comes out to a 0.80 points-per-game average. Benn has made it clear [https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/pending-ufa-jamie-benn-wants-to-remain-with-stars/] he wants to remain with the Dallas Stars, but things can change between now and July 1st, when free agency opens. For the right price, the Sharks might be able to convince Benn to join their team on a short-term deal as they try to move back into contention. His strong play at both ends could stabilize the Sharks' middle-six forward group, and with some extra cap space this summer, they should be willing to spend on a player who has done extremely well and has been a key part of the Stars' success.
