  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Nets both goals in AHL loss

    Carlsson scored a pair of goals in AHL San Jose's 4-2 loss to Colorado on Friday.

    Carlsson began the year with an injury, and he's be in the AHL since healthy. For the season, the 28-year-old is at six goals and eight points over 17 appearances. The Sharks already have a logjam on the blue line at the NHL level, so chances are slim of Carlsson receiving a call-up in 2025-26.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Won't play Monday

It's not yet clear whether he'll be cleared to return to game action before the end of the preseason, but he'll likely head to the minors once the regular season gets underway.

    Head coach Ryan Warsofsky said Thursday that Carlsson (lower body) has returned to the ice, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Carlsson underwent offseason surgery to address a lower-body injury, and he's been considered day-to-day early in camp. Warsofsky said Thursday that he doesn't think Carlsson will be able to participate fully in training camp, but he also said that the 28-year-old isn't far away from playing. Carlsson will likely begin the 2025-26 campaign in the minors, but it seems possible that he'll be able to suit up early in the regular season.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Recovering from surgery

    Carlsson underwent surgery due to a lower-body injury during the offseason, but he's progressed to the point where he's day-to-day, Max Miller of NHL.com reports Friday.

    Carlsson had 10 goals and 23 points in 45 regular-season appearances with AHL San Jose as well as a goal and four points in 13 outings with the Sharks in 2024-25. Provided he's healthy, the 28-year-old defenseman is expected to start the upcoming campaign in the minors.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Heads to minors

    The Sharks' campaign is over, so this is an opportunity to extend his year while assisting in the Barracuda's postseason run. Carlsson had a goal, four points, four hits and 14 blocks in 13 appearances with the Sharks in 2024-25. The 27-year-old is finishing up the first season of a two-year, two-way contract.

    Carlsson has been with the Sharks since March 21, suiting up in 12 straight games. Presumably, he'll also be in the lineup Wednesday versus the Oilers for the Sharks' season finale. Should he clear waivers, he'll head to AHL San Jose to help the Barracuda's playoff run.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Manages assist Sunday

    Carlsson provided an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Flames.

    The assist ended an eight-game point drought for Carlsson. The 27-year-old has gotten a chance to play with the big club and even see some power-play time as injuries continue to pile up among the Sharks' defensemen. Over 11 appearances in the NHL this season, Carlsson has four points, 14 shots on net, 14 PIM, 12 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Nabs helper in shootout win

    Carlsson logged an assist, four PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.

    Carlsson has three points over two contests with the Sharks. He set up Tyler Toffoli's opening goal at 7:50 of the first period in this game. Carlsson is getting a chance to audition for an NHL job next season -- he's already under contract for 2025-26, but he's on a two-way deal, which makes it more palatable for him to be stashed in the AHL. Even if he stays with the Sharks for the rest of the season, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as it's unlikely he can keep up this scoring pace.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Two points in return to NHL

    Carlsson scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Bruins.

    Carlsson made his first NHL appearance since early in the 2022-23 campaign with the Panthers. The 27-year-old defenseman last got on the scoresheet in an NHL game the year before that, but he made the most of his Sharks debut with the game-winning tally at 16:37 of the third period, as well as a helper on Barclay Goodrow's empty-netter. Carlsson could stick with the big club while Henry Thrun (upper body) and Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) are on the mend. Even with Saturday's impressive performance, Carlsson is unlikely to be much of an option for fantasy managers, given his limited track record.

  • Sharks' Lucas Carlsson: Joining NHL roster

    Carlsson was promoted from AHL San Jose on Friday.

    Carlsson's addition to the roster comes as Jimmy Schuldt was sent down in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old Carlsson hasn't appeared in an NHL game since the 2022-23 campaign when he was with the Panthers. Unless Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) is cleared to play against the Bruins on Saturday, Carlsson figures to slot into a third-pairing role.
