Nurse carries a cap hit of $9.25 million. His contract still has four years remaining and will expire following the 29-30 season. <\/p>\n<p>Nurse has been under fire for not playing up to the price point of his long-term deal. Part of Nurse\u2019s contract is a full no-movement clause, so he had to approve the San Jose Sharks as the team he\u2019ll play for. At $9.25 million, many thought his contract might need to be retained to trade him. The Oilers did not retain any salary as part of the trade.<\/p>\n<p>Nurse will bring playoff experience to a young San Jose Sharks roster. In 82 games last season, Nurse had seven goals and 17 assists.<\/p>\n<p>Nurse has recently played with <a href=\"https:\/\/sharkshockeydigest.com\/tag\/macklin-celebrini\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"14\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Macklin Celebrini<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/sharkshockeydigest.com\/tag\/sam-dickinson\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"697\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sam Dickinson<\/a> at the 2026 IIHF World Championship for Team Canada. <\/p>\n<p>RFA D-man Shakir Mukhamadullin will be headed north. On Monday, the San Jose Sharks gave qualifying offers to <a href=\"https:\/\/sharkshockeydigest.com\/tag\/collin-graf\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"58\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Collin Graf<\/a> and Mukhamadullin. <\/p>\n<p>The Sharks also traded defenseman Zack Sharp. Sharp is a <a href=\"https:\/\/sharkshockeydigest.com\/tag\/2025-nhl-draft\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"729\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2025 NHL Draft<\/a> 4th-round pick. Sharp is currently participating in the development camp. He spent last season at Western Michigan University. In 37 games, Shapr scored five goals and 14 assists.<\/p>\n<p>Nurse will join newly signed defenseman <a href=\"https:\/\/sharkshockeydigest.com\/tag\/jacob-trouba\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"3223\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jacob Trouba<\/a> on the blue line for the foreseeable future.
