JOE PAVELSKI - Right Winger - 35 - $7MM Cap Hit - UFA in 2022-2023
LAST UPDATED 8/20/19
Joe Pavelski is one of the greatest players to don a San Jose Sharks uniform. Now, he's a cap casualty and ready to start a new era of his career in Dallas. Pavelski is a do-it-all winger. Need someone to lead the rush, set up teammates, and drive offensive play for a top-6 line? Pavelski can do it. He's fast enough, and he's a skilled enough skater to create time and space with the puck. Need someone to hustle for pucks along the boards and fight to keep the puck out of your net? Pavelski can do that too, as he's got a high motor and legitimate defensive tools to be a good physical forward. Pavelski is a skilled winger who can shoot, pass, and screen. He can legitimately do it all in the offensive end and be a force in the crease tipping pucks in. 30 goals should be the expectation, with upside for 40. Pavelski isn't the strongest defensive forward despite his motor and physicality, so he shouldn't kill penalties, but he's an incredible leader and his lack of elite defensive value is made up for the value he brings off the ice. Pavelski is a top-6 winger who can pot 40 goals and enforce good habits on the young players on his team. There's value in that, and Pavelski should continue to get first or second line icetime even as he gets deeper into his 30's.
