Larkin's tiebreaking goal in 3rd period sends Red Wings to 4-2 win over Sharks

First point since return Leddy logged an assist in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Stars.

Impact This was Leddy's first point since he was activated from injured reserve Nov. 10 after dealing with an upper-body injury. He's played in just four of the Sharks' last 13 games as the team navigates balancing minutes on a crowded blue line. For the season, Leddy is at three helpers, four shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 11 appearances. He doesn't look likely to be a regular in San Jose, which makes him a non-factor in fantasy.

Impact Leddy has been sidelined since late October due to his upper-body injury, but he's practiced with the Sharks over the past week and will be able to suit up against the Wild. Over seven appearances prior to sustaining his injury, Leddy logged two assists, 10 blocked shots, two hits and four PIM while averaging 17:12 of ice time.

Practices Tuesday Leddy (upper body) participated in Tuesday's practice, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

Impact Leddy will accompany the Sharks to Seattle ahead of Wednesday's game, but a return to the lineup is unlikely. Mario Ferraro skipped Tuesday's session for maintenance, giving San Jose eight healthy blueliners on the roster. Still, Leddy appears to be nearing a return after missing the last six games.

Deals helper in overtime loss Leddy had an assist, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Impact This was Leddy's first point over two games with the Sharks since he was claimed off waivers from the Blues in the offseason. The 34-year-old blueliner is poised to play a significant role as a top-four option this season. He was limited to five points in 31 regular-season outings last year, and he's fallen short of the 30-point mark in four straight seasons, so he's not a particularly strong option for fantasy.

Sharks claim Stanley Cup winning defenseman off waivers | Sporting News Nick Leddy to San Jose

JULY 3, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Claimed by San Jose Leddy is on his way to San Jose after he was claimed off waivers by the Sharks on Thursday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact The Sharks are adding another veteran to their defensive corps after inked Dmitri Orlov to a two-year contract earlier in the day. Leddy has one more year remaining on his four-year, $16 million contract. He had only two goals and three assists across 31 regular-season games in 2024-25, missing most of the season with a lower-body injury. Leddy should be a top-four defenseman with the Sharks and will likely regain a spot on the power play, after being a non-factor with the man-advantage over his last three years with the Blues.

On waivers Leddy was put on waivers by St. Louis on Wednesday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact The buyout window is closed, so Leddy is just on regular waivers. Presumably, St. Louis is doing this to see if there's a team willing to grab the final season of Leddy's four-year, $16 million contract. The 34-year-old defenseman had two goals, five points, five hits and 26 blocks across 31 regular-season appearances in 2024-25. He missed most of the campaign due to a lower-body injury and averaged 18:40 of ice time during the regular season, which marked his first time finishing with less than 20 minutes per game since 2013-14. Perhaps Leddy can slot into a different team's top four now that he's healthy.

Garners assist in win Leddy logged an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Jets in Game 4.

Impact This was Leddy's first point of the postseason. The 34-year-old defenseman has played on the third pairing, logging one shot on net, three hits, two blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-2 rating over four playoff outings. Leddy has been playing alongside Tyler Tucker (lower body) lately, but he might have to partner with Ryan Suter if Tucker is forced to miss time after suffering an injury late in this contest.
