Both can be true.
SJS probably just lobbed a low offer over. My guess is that constitutes most of the noise/chatter around Ras. Lots of soft interest from around the league but no one has the sack to get serious. Yet.

If you remember, Royal did say back in the summer before the draft that the Sharks were intent on upgrading their RD. Their first choice was Ekblad and their second choice was Andersson.
Even with their moves to sign Orlov, Klingberg, and acquire Leddy, I do not think that is enough to eliminate their need for Andersson. Now that they are sitting in a playoff spot in December they can consider making moves to upgrade RD.
Orlov-Andersson
Ferraro-Klingberg
Dickinson-Liljegren
Leddy-Mukhamadullin
That group immediately looks better simply by pushing Liljegren and Klingberg off the top pair.
