Dainius Zubrus News

The Sharks will sign Dainius Zubrus to a one-year contract.

Zubrus has been with the Sharks on a tryout but finally signed this afternoon. The 37-year-old had four goals and 10 points in 74 games with the Devils last season. He has 584 career points (225G / 359A) in 1243 games, but will likely serve as a depth forward at this point in his career.

Devils left wing Dainius Zubrus is on the ice practicing with the team.

Zubrus (wrist) has only appeared in nine games this season. He has been out for over a month and this is the first time he has skated with the team since getting hurt. Zubrus would help the Devils because of Ilya Kovalchuk's injury but he is not a good fantasy option.

Zubrus is out for tonight's game vs. Tampa Bay.

Zubrus was hurt in the Devils last game against the Rangers. He only has 1 G and 3 A in 9 games on the Devils first line. Rookie Stefan Matteau will assume his spot on New Jersey's top-line with Travis Zajac and Ilya Kovalchuk. Consider Zubrus as day-to-day.
