SAN JOSE \u2013 The San Jose Sharks placed defensemen Jack Thompson <\/a>and Lucas Carlsson<\/a> on waivers on Sunday.<\/p>\n

If another NHL team does not claim Thompson and Carlsson before Monday morning, both will be assigned to the AHL\u2019s San Jose Barracuda.<\/a><\/p>\n

Thompson, 23, and Carlsson, 28, began the year on the Sharks\u2019 injured non-roster list.<\/a> Thompson sustained a lower-body injury during the team\u2019s preseason game against the Vegas Golden Knights on Oct. 3, and Carlsson had a lower-body injury and was unable to take part in any preseason games.<\/p>\n

Both players were on the ice with the Sharks during the team\u2019s optional morning skate<\/a> on Saturday, signaling that they were close to a return.<\/p>\n

Thompson, acquired in 2024 from the Tampa Bay Lightning, has 10 points in 33 games with the Sharks and 23 points in 43 games with the Barracuda. Carlsson, now with his third NHL team, was signed by San Jose as a free agent to a two-year contract in 2024 and had four points in 13 games with the Sharks last season.<\/p>\n

The Sharks are already carrying eight defensemen<\/a> on their roster in Dmitry Orlov, Nick Leddy, John Klingberg, Mario Ferraro, Timothy Liljegren, Vincent Desharnais, Sam Dickinson, and Shakir Mukhamadullin.<\/p>\n

The Barracuda opened the season with a 7-6 win over Bakersfield on Saturday at Tech CU Arena. The team\u2019s next game is Oct. 18 in Bakersfield.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN JOSE \u2013 The San Jose Sharks placed defensemen Jack Thompson and Lucas Carlsson on waivers on Sunday.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":354,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[184,7,401,402,181,404,88,97,90,89,98,198,200,127],"class_list":{"0":"post-353","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-jose","8":"tag-bay-area","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-hockey","11":"tag-inside-sports","12":"tag-latest-headlines","13":"tag-nhl","14":"tag-san-jose","15":"tag-san-jose-barracuda","16":"tag-san-jose-headlines","17":"tag-san-jose-news","18":"tag-san-jose-sharks","19":"tag-santa-clara-county","20":"tag-south-bay","21":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/353","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=353"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/353\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/354"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=353"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=353"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=353"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
