Since both names were mentioned, Rivet and Hannan are both UFA's. Rivet has been unabashed in his joy at being in San Jose and having a good role in a city that doesnt criticize his every single mistake. He said this week, he'd like to stay "if the team would have him."
Hannan hasn't said a thing but has been in SJ his whole career. If the Sharks win the Cup, I would see him deciding that a goal of his was reached, and he will go to the highest bidder. This would be his year to take care of his family. If a team offers him $5.5MM over 4-5 years, the Sharks wont be able to sign him. And I think someone will offer him that money. He is durable, tough, a proven commodity, and a leader. He is just the player that many teams would want for their #1 Dman.
