Sharks' Jacob Middleton: Inks two-year deal

Middleton and the Sharks agreed to a two-year, two-way deal worth $725,000 annually Monday, according to CapFriendly.com.

Middleton suited up for 10 games at the NHL level last season, collecting a pair of assists while averaging 10:46 of ice time. He could spend next season bouncing between the AHL and NHL again, so the two-way deal gives the Sharks some flexibility.
