USA TODAY Sports/Isaiah J. Downing
Pending unrestricted free-agent forward Patrick Marleau has a two-year offer to return to the San Jose Sharks, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
Dreger adds Marleau plans to weigh the offer with other free-agent inquisitions and consult with his family throughout the process.
Marleau will turn 38 years old ahead of the 2017-18 campaign. He scored 27 goals and finished with 46 points over a full 82 games in his 19th season. It was his highest goal total since 2013-14, largely due to a 14.2 shooting percentage.
