San Jose Sharks 2023 first-round pick Quentin Musty<\/a> returned to the AHL ice after missing a month with a lower-body injury. While he was unable to land on the scoresheet during the San Jose Barracuda\u2019s loss to the Henderson Silver Knights last night, his return from injury puts him in a position to resume his AHL rookie season and continue to make his case for an eventual NHL recall.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Musty, missing time is something he\u2019s had to get used to over the last two seasons. Last year, he didn\u2019t begin his OHL season until November, sitting out in hopes the Sudbury Wolves would fulfill<\/a>\u00a0his trade request<\/a>. (They did not.) Then, he suffered a hand injury, and was limited to just 33 games in 2024-25. With that year behind him, Musty has had a decent rookie campaign in the AHL. Through 33 games, Musty has 24 points, which is a 52-point 72-game scoring pace. He\u2019s widely considered to be among San Jose\u2019s top prospects, ranking No. 4 in their system entering the season by Elite Prospects<\/a>, and No. 5 by Daily Faceoff<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Other notes from the Bay Area:<\/p>\n

The Sharks have been without 2022 first-rounder Filip Bystedt<\/a> for the last two games due to a lower-body injury, and according to independent reporter Madison Montez<\/a>, he is expected to be sidelined on a week-to-week basis. Bystedt\u2019s injury cost him the chance to compete in the AHL\u2019s All-Star Classic, and could unfortunately impact his odds of making his NHL debut at some point this season. The 22-year-old center leads the Barracuda in scoring with 36 points in 40 games, but has yet to receive an NHL recall to this point in his young career.
\n2022 No. 34 overall pick Cam Lund<\/a>\u00a0is currently being evaluated for an injury after missing the last two periods of the Barracuda\u2019s most recent game, reports Montez<\/a>. The 21-year-old replaced Bystedt at the AHL\u2019s All-Star Classic<\/a> and has 25 points in 37 games in what is his first full season playing pro hockey. Lund spent 11 games with the Sharks after signing his ELC last season, and scored two goals and three points in his first taste of pro hockey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"San Jose Sharks 2023 first-round pick Quentin Musty returned to the AHL ice after missing a month with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179794,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[3522,3518,88,90,89,98],"class_list":{"0":"post-179793","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-jose","8":"tag-filip-bystedt","9":"tag-quentin-musty","10":"tag-san-jose","11":"tag-san-jose-headlines","12":"tag-san-jose-news","13":"tag-san-jose-sharks"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179793"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179793\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
