For the San Jose Sharks ownership group, the 2008-09 NHL season will see the club’s player payroll hit record levels. The payrolls for NHL clubs in 2008-09 can reach just over $56 million and the Sharks are already in that range.
Sharks General Manager Doug Wilson announced Thursday that tryout player Jeff Friesen has been released from the Sharks 2008-09 training camp. “Jeff had a very good camp and he should be proud of his effort," Wilson said.
