However, in a weaker Sharks system, he should have a chance to establish himself.<\/p>\n<p>Going back to Colorado, the Sharks are sending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markerzone.com\/hockey\/stats\/nhl\/player\/Daniil-Gushchin-64304\" class=\"lien_marqueur\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"Daniil Gushchin profile and hockey stats\">Daniil Gushchin<\/a> to the Mile High City. Originally a third-round pick in 2020, Gushchin has outperformed his original draft position and has broken into the NHL after dominating the AHL.<\/p>\n<p>The pair of prospects were both in need of a change of scenery and are getting one here and hopefully both can flourish with their new teams.<\/p>\n<p>Previously on HouseOfHockey<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tHOUSEOFHOCKEY.NET<br \/>COPYRIGHT @2025 &#8211; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.houseofhockey.net\/terms\" class=\"lediv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TERMS<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.houseofhockey.net\/politic\" class=\"lediv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">POLICIES<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Colorado Avalanche Trade Former First Round Pick to Conference Rival Photo credit: Colorado Hockey Now The San Jose&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":38069,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[31142,1223,31141,4273,385,30567,835,99],"class_list":["post-38068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-chris-macfarland","tag-colorado-avalanche","tag-daniil-guschin","tag-mike-grier","tag-nhl","tag-oskar-olausson","tag-san-jose-sharks","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38068"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38068\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38069"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
