There's been a lot of rumors about Erik Karlsson possibly being traded. However, the San Jose Sharks don't seem bothered by them.

Karlsson still has four years left on his contract. The Sharks are patient and willing to wait for the right trade.

In the latest news, Elliotte Friedman has revealed two top teams that are interested in Karlsson.

Two Top Contenders Interested

On NHL Network , Friedman mentioned the Pittsburgh Penguins and Carolina Hurricanes as the top contenders for Karlsson. He also briefly mentioned the possibility of Seattle being involved, but it doesn't seem likely.

"I think the Penguins are one of the last teams standing on Erik Karlsson. I think Carolina is in there, they have much more cap room, and I think Seattle looked at it but I don't think it's going to work," Friedman said.

Karlsson wants to join a team that has a good chance of winning the Stanley Cup, and he might be close to making that happen. Both the Penguins and the Hurricanes share Karlsson's desire to win the cup.

The options available are very appealing. Who wouldn't want to play with Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kristopher Letang in Pittsburgh? Or be part of Carolina's strong lineup that includes Sebastian Aho, Teuvo Teravainen, Andrei Svechnikov, and Martin Necas?
