    • Brad Stuart made it clear to the Red Wings weeks ago that he intended to sign with the San Jose Sharks when he became a free agent on July 1, so the team got as much as they could for him over the weekend by trading his rights to the Sharks for a minor league center Andrew Murray and a conditional draft pick. The Sharks can now have exclusive negotiating rights to the 32-year-old Stuart for the next three weeks.

    Stuart was a first round pick by the Sharks in 1998 and played the first five and a half years of his career there before being traded to Boston in the Joe Thornton deal in 2005. Since then he has played with Calgary, Los Angeles, and for the past 4+ seasons in Detroit, but his family has remained in San Jose, and he plans on spending the rest of his career there.

    The Sharks have acquired the rights to Detroit Red Wings defenseman Brad Stuart, setting up the possibility that San Jose’s first-round draft pick in 1998 will be able to end his NHL career where it began.
