The San Jose Sharks have extended defenseman Shakir Mukhamadullin for one year at $1 million, affirming his value following his acquisition from the New Jersey Devils. This season, he balanced time between the NHL and AHL, achieving notable statistics with both the Sharks and their AHL affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda. Having been drafted in the first round of the 2020 NHL Draft by the Devils, Mukhamadullin brings experience from the KHL, reinforcing his importance for San Jose's future aspirations as they aim for a competitive rebuild.
Mukhamadullin's effective defensive skills and contribution to the offensive game have positioned him as a key part of the Sharks' future plans.
The Sharks' contract extension for Mukhamadullin reflects confidence in his growth as a defenseman after trading for him in the Timo Meier deal.
