Most if not all of those players would have taken part in Sharks training camp, which was set to begin on Sep. 21 at Sharks Ice, but will be delayed due to the ongoing NHL lockout.

A pair of Worcester Sharks from last season remain unsigned, as defenseman and former first round pick Nick Petrecki and forward Tim Kennedy are still restricted free agents.

Worcesters season begins on Oct. 12 in Norfolk, with the home opener set for Oct. 20 vs. Albany.
