"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."
