Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Remains out
Mukhamadullin (lower body) didn't take part in Tuesday's practice, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
Mukhamadullin won't play in Tuesday's exhibition contest against Anaheim, according to Max Miller of NHL.com. The 22-year-old Mukhamadullin has been recovering from a lower-body issue during training camp, and it's unclear when he will return to the ice. After he receives clearance to play, Mukhamadullin could head to the minors for the beginning of the 2024-25 campaign.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Not available for start of camp
Mukhamadullin (lower body) will not be available for the beginning of training camp Thursday.
Mukhamadullin did not play in rookie games last week, but he was expected to be ready for the start of training camp, so he may have had a setback. Mukhamadullin will compete for a job on the bottom pairing. If he is not able to garner a spot, returning to AHL San Jose is likely, as he needs playing time.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Won't play in rookie games
Mukhamadullin is dealing with general soreness and won't play in any rookie games for the Sharks, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports Friday.
Mukhamadullin is expected to be good to go for main camp, which suggests the issue is indeed a minor one. The 22-year-old blueliner will be competing for a depth role with the Sharks, though it's likely he'll see some time with AHL San Jose in 2024-25.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Sent to AHL
Mukhamadullin was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Thursday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
The Sharks don't play again until Feb. 14, so it's no surprise that Mukhamadullin was sent down. The plan is for him to play in the AHL All-Star game Feb. 5 and get in four AHL games before presumably being recalled by the Sharks. Mukhamadullin picked up his first career NHL point Wednesday, as he had a power-play assist on Anthony Duclair's first-period goal against Anaheim. Mukhamadullin is already a top-four defenseman with the Sharks and should eventually play on the top unit while seeing time with the top power play.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Earns first point
Mukhamadullin notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal, six blocked shots, two hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Mukhamadullin needed three games to earn his first NHL point, and he did it on an Anthony Duclair power-play goal in the first period. Since his promotion Jan. 25, Mukhamadullin has immediately jumped into a top-four role, and he looks like he belongs there. He's racked up five shots on net, 11 blocks, three hits, four PIM and an even plus-minus rating. The Sharks are missing three blueliners, but Mukhamadullin is making a strong case to stay in the lineup long term, especially if the team trades away some veterans before the March 8 deadline.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Ascends to top level
Mukhamadullin was recalled from AHL San Jose on Thursday.
Mukhamadullin was the big piece the Sharks wanted from New Jersey when they sent Timo Meier to the Devils 11 months ago. The 22-year old was selected 20th overall in 2020. Mukhamadullin had five goals and 26 points in 39 AHL games before his recall. He could replace Kyle Burroughs on the Sharks' blue line when they face Buffalo on Saturday.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Dealt to Sharks
New Jersey traded Mukhamadullin, Fabian Zetterlund, Nikita Okhotyuk, Andreas Johnsson and three draft picks, including a 2023 first, to the Sharks in exchange for Timo Meier (upper body), Scott Harrington, Timur Ibragimov, Santeri Hatakka, Zachary Emond and a fifth-round pick Sunday.
Mukhamadullin has six goals and 25 points in the KHL this season. The 21-year-old blueliner was selected 20th overall in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. San Jose will likely look to bring him to North America next season.

Devils' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Lands entry-level deal
Mukhamadullin signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Devils on Wednesday. He's also been loaned back to Salavat Yulaev Ufa of the KHL for the remainder of the 2021-22 campaign.
Mukhamadullin has already been playing for Salavat Yulaev Ufa this season, picking up three goals and seven points through 34 contests. At this point it isn't clear if the 2020 first-round pick will make the transition to North American hockey in 2022-23.

Devils' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Healthy and playing in KHL
Mukhamadullin has amassed four points in 14 games with Salavat Yulaev Ufa of the KHL this season.
Mukhamadullin underwent shoulder surgery in May, but he's fully recovered from that operation. The 19-year-old has yet to make much of a scoring impact in his native Russia. A first-round pick of the Devils in 2020, Mukhamadullin doesn't seem likely to make the jump to North America until 2022 at the earliest.

Devils' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Undergoes shoulder surgery
Mukhamadullin underwent shoulder surgery in May, but he's expected to be ready for the start of the next KHL season, Corey Masisak of The Athletic reports.
Mukhamadullin produced three goals and seven assists in 39 contests with Salavat Yulaev Ufa of the KHL last season. A first-round pick from 2020, Mukhamadullin is expected to spend at least one more year in his native Russia before making the jump to North America's AHL. He's expected to need a couple of seasons beyond that before he could potentially make an impact for the Devils at the NHL level.
