Sharks Sign No. 2 Pick Michael Misa to Three-Year Entry-Level Deal

The 18-year-old enters rookie evaluations aiming to seize a roster spot against a deepened forward mix.

Overview

  • Misa joined Sharks rookie camp on Wednesday and will play in the Golden State Rookie Faceoff before main camp opens Sept. 18.
  • He led the CHL with 134 points last season, scoring 62 goals for Saginaw and earning OHL MVP and CHL top-scorer honors.
  • Granted exceptional status to enter the OHL at 15, he later won rookie of the year and helped Saginaw capture the 2024 Memorial Cup.
  • Sharks director of player development Todd Marchment has said Misa will have every opportunity to make the NHL roster this fall.
  • Competition at forward is heavy with 13 projected NHL forwards and new additions Jeff Skinner, Adam Gaudette, Ryan Reaves and Philipp Kurashev ahead of the Oct. 9 opener against Vegas.
