INJURIES

Three helpers in OT win Eklund picked up three assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Rangers.
Impact The 23-year-old saw plenty of shifts alongside Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, and the trio combined for five goals and 12 points in a wild win at MSG. It was Eklund's first multi-point performance of the season, but there will be plenty more coming if he keeps that line assignment. Through seven games, Eklund has put together one goal and five points with 19 shots on net, seven blocked shots and six hits, but also a rough minus-8 rating.

Nets lone goal in loss Eklund scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
Impact Eklund tied the game at 1-1 with his second-period tally, though the Hurricanes would regain their lead before the end of the frame. For the season, Eklund has two points, six shots on net and a minus-4 rating over three appearances. He's firmly in a top-six role with power-play time, so the 23-year-old should have a good chance of matching last year's 58-point performance.

Participating in team scrimamge Eklund (wrist) took part in the Sharks' intersquad scrimmage Thursday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Impact If Eklund was dealing with any lingering effects of his wrist injury, the Sharks no doubt would withhold him from taking part in the scrimmage portion of Thursday's camp session. Of note, the 22-year-old winger found himself skating on a line with rookie Michael Misa, instead of Macklin Celebrini, which could be a sign the team is going to spread its youngsters throughout all three lines heading into Opening Night.

Skating with teammates Eklund (wrist) was on the ice for Monday's informal skate, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Impact Eklund continues to work his way back from offseason wrist surgery, with Peng noting that the 22-year-old winger didn't appear to be limited at the informal skate. While fantasy players likely want to continue monitoring the situation, all signs seem to be pointing at Eklund being good to go for Opening Night against the Golden Knights on Oct. 9. Barring any setbacks, Eklund figures to slot into a first-line role alongside Macklin Celebrini.

Inks extension with San Jose Eklund (wrist) signed a three-year, $16.8 million contract extension with the Sharks on Tuesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Eklund's new deal will kick in 2026-27. There hasn't been a substantial update on the status of Eklund's recovery from wrist surgery after the young forward was cut by a skate in a tune-up game at the 2025 IIHF World Championship in May. However, it was noted at the time that he is expected to be ready for training camp in the fall, and he's facing a three-month recovery period. When healthy, the 22-year-old Swede will fill a top-six role in addition to seeing time with the man advantage, and he's certainly a name to keep in mind for upcoming fantasy drafts considering his offensive output has increased in each of the last two seasons.

Undergoes surgery on wrist Eklund underwent successful wrist surgery Monday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Impact After a scary incident Saturday in which his wrist was cut by a skate in an exhibition contest ahead of the 2025 IIHF World Championship, Eklund will now be on the road to recovery. The 2021 first-round pick is set to miss the international tournament with Team Sweden, but he is expected to be ready for training camp in 2025-26. Peng noted that Eklund's recovery timeline is roughly three months. The 22-year-old Eklund took a step forward in his second full season with the Sharks, earning 17 goals and 58 points over 77 appearances. The left-shot winger's plus-minus rating also improved from minus-45 in 2023-24 to minus-7 in 2024-25, which highlights his progression on both ends of the ice.

Impact Eklund's agent, Todd Diamond, said it looks like the skate "didn't cut key tendons or nerves at the moment." The 22-year-old Eklund was taken to a local hospital after the incident happened in Brno, Czechia. The World Championship, which begins May 9, is set to be played partially in Stockholm, Sweden, which is Eklund's hometown. The opportunity to represent Sweden at home would doubtlessly be special, but after that scary incident, the focus right now is squarely on his recovery.
