SJHN Daily: Dellandrea Signs Extension, Smith Didn’t Like Sharks As a Kid
Ty Dellandrea is sticking with the San Jose Sharks for another two years.
The pending RFA and the Sharks announced they signed a two-year contract extension for the forward, with a $1.625 million AAV. That AAV rises $325,000 from his current deal which began in the 2024-25 season.
Dellandrea – who made a step up in his play this season – has been injured since Jan. 6, when he ran into a goalpost during the San Jose Sharks’ home game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Coach Ryan Warsofsky said earlier in the week that Dellandrea is considered week-to-week, but getting closer to a return to practice. When he does return, he’ll join the logjam of Sharks forwards looking for minutes.
At the time he suffered an injury that has held him out of the lineup on Jan. 6, Dellandrea led Sharks forwards in FOW% (52.3; min. 200 FO) and ranked second among the group in hits (117), blocked shots (36) and SH TOI (115:05) over 42 games. https://t.co/DR7RDWDQRN
