75 Rourke Chartier C

The Sharks didn't send Chartier a qualifying offer Tuesday, so he'll become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.

Chartier had an extremely limited role with the Sharks this season, picking up one goal while posting a minus-5 rating in 13 games, so this move doesn't come as a surprise.

Chartier was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Sunday, TSN reports.

Chartier has been flipped between leagues frequently this season and figures to continue doing so the rest of the way. The center hasn't played in an NHL game since Nov. 15; however, an injury to Joonas Donskoi (upper body) could open the door for Chartier to suit up against the Penguins on Tuesday.

The Sharks recalled Chartier on Saturday.

Chartier was sent down to the minors Friday to get some game action with AHL San Jose but was quickly recalled since the Sharks have just 12 healthy forwards otherwise. He won't draw into the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Senators.

Chartier was reassigned to AHL San Jose on Friday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.

The 22-year-old will return to the Sharks' minor -league affiliate after being a healthy scratch the past seven games. Chartier has appeared in 13 NHL games this season, recording a goal and posting a minus-5 rating along the way. He's been more productive at the AHL level, tallying a total of nine points in 11 contests.

Chartier was promoted from the minors Friday.

Fortunately for Chartier, the Sharks and Barracuda share the SAP Center, so he has only been forced to switch locker rooms during his frequent moves between leagues. The center figures to serve as an emergency depth option against the Oilers on Saturday and is unlikely to get into the lineup.

Chartier was promoted from AHL San Jose on Sunday.

The move gave the Sharks some extra forward depth ahead of Sunday's matchup with Arizona, but as expected, the center didn't get into the lineup. Chartier figures to see his name on and off San Jose's roster for much of the rest of the season, but shouldn't see too much ice time -- barring injury to another center.

Chartier was added to the roster as insurance among the forward lines in the event some was unavailable Thursday against the Jets, but he will head back to the minors after he didn't draw into the contest.

The Sharks recalled Chartier from AHL San Jose on Wednesday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.

Chartier has played well in the minors this season, notching two goals and eight points in eight contests, but he hasn't been able to carry that success with him to the NHL level, as he's only tallied one goal in 13 appearances with the Sharks this campaign. The 22-year-old forward's next opportunity to crack the big club's lineup will arrive Thursday against Dallas.

The Sharks assigned Chartier to AHL San Jose on Friday.

Chartier has only scored one goal while averaging 9:24 of ice time in 13 appearances with the big club this campaign, so this move won't affect any fantasy rosters. The 22-year-old pivot will return to a prominent role with AHL San Jose, where he'll remain for the foreseeable future.

Chartier scored his first NHL goal Sunday, proving to be a difference maker in a 4-3 overtime win over the Ducks.

Chartier was only iced for 10:17 as a fourth-line center, but he still produced three shots and did a nifty spin-around maneuver for his first career tally. The 22-year-old is playing for a new contract as his three-year, entry-level deal with the Sharks will expire next summer.

Chartier will suit up in Monday's matchup with the Islanders after being recalled from AHL San Jose, Paul Gackle of Bay Area Sports reports.

Chartier has been moving frequently between the NHL and AHL to start the season, but with Joe Thornton (knee) out of action, the youngster will slot into the lineup over Dylan Gambrell. Monday's clash will mark Chartier's NHL debut, with him spending the past two seasons playing for the Barracuda.

Chartier was returned to his junior club after being cut from Sharks camp on Wednesday.The 19-year-old center had a breakout year in the WHL after being drafted in the fifth round last summer, scoring 48 goals and 34 assists through 58 games. He'll be a dominant player in juniors this season and do some great developing as a leader with the Kelowna Rockets, but he's a few years from having fantasy hockey relevance.
