Sharks' Jake Walman: Draws helper in return
Walman posted an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins.
While he was listed on the third pairing, Walman saw a team-high 24:55 of ice time in his return from a five-game absence due to an upper-body injury. The defenseman has been one of the bright spots for the Sharks this season, though that light may be dimmed if he remains on the second power-play unit. He has 10 points, 37 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, 16 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 14 appearances.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Not available versus Rangers
Walman (upper body) will remain sidelined for Thursday's clash with the Rangers, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Walman will be out of the lineup for a fifth consecutive contest due to his lingering upper-body issue. The blueliner was originally deemed a game-time call versus New York, so it's possible he will be ready in time to face the Penguins on Saturday.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Game-time call for Thursday
Walman (upper body) is expected to be a game-time decision Thursday, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.
Walman has a goal and nine points over 13 appearances in 2024-25. He's missed San Jose's last four games due to the injury. If he draws back into the lineup Thursday, then Jack Thompson would likely be a healthy scratch after dressing in the Sharks' past four games.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Unavailable Monday
Walman (upper body) won't play Monday against Philadelphia, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.
Walman is day-to-day and will miss his fourth straight game. His next chance to return will be Thursday versus the Rangers. Walman has one goal, eight assists, 35 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and 16 hits across 13 outings this season.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Won't play Sunday
Walman (upper body) won't suit up for Sunday's contest against the Devils, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.
Walman will miss his second straight game due to the injury. The left-shot blueliner skated with the team Sunday morning, so he could suit up in the second half of a back-to-back versus the Flyers on Monday. Jack Thompson will replace Walman in the lineup Sunday, and Henry Thrun will slide up to the top defense pair alongside Cody Ceci.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Game-time decision
Walman (upper body) will be a game-time decision Sunday versus the Devils, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.
San Jose may dress seven defenders and 11 forwards against New Jersey. Walman was on the top pairing and worked on the second power-play unit during Sunday's morning skate, both positive signs for a potential return from a two-game absence. He has registered one goal, eight assists, 35 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and 16 hits across 13 appearances this season.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Traveling with team
Walman (upper body) will join the Sharks for their upcoming four-game road trip, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports Thursday.
Walman has missed two games due to team suspension and upper-body injury but appears to be trending in the right direction. Once the 28-year-old defenseman is cleared to play, he should immediately retake his spot on the blue line in addition to seeing power-play opportunities. Barring a long-term injury, the Toronto native should be capable of easily surpassing his previous career high of 21 points set last year.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Questionable Thursday
Walman (undisclosed) is questionable for Thursday's game versus Minnesota, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Walman missed Tuesday's game versus Columbus for disciplinary reasons. His status for the game could be clarified by coach Ryan Warsofsky after the team's optional skate Thursday. Walman was red-hot before sitting out Tuesday as he had a goal and seven points in his previous four games, giving the 28-year-old a goal and nine points in 13 contests this season.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Not playing Thursday
Walman will miss Thursday's game versus Minnesota with an upper-body injury, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.
It will be the second straight game that Walman will miss as he sat out Tuesday for disciplinary reasons. The defenseman has a goal and nine points in 13 games this season, including seven points in his last four games. Look for Jack Thompson to remain in the lineup. Walman could return Sunday when the Sharks are in New Jersey to play the Devils.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Returning to lineup versus Wild
Walman (coach's decision) will be back in action against Minnesota on Thursday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Walman's benching versus the Blue Jackets on Tuesday was for non-hockey reasons, according to head coach Ryan Warsofsky. The 28-year-old blueliner had been rolling offensively before sitting out Tuesday, racking up seven points in his last four contests. With Walman back in the lineup, Jack Thompson figures to be relegated to be scratched Thursday.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Expected to be scratched Tuesday
Walman will be a healthy scratch Tuesday versus Columbus, per Max Miller of NHL.com.
Walman has a goal and nine points in 13 appearances this season, including seven points over his past four outings. However, he did have a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Vancouver. The decision to scratch Walman is still surprising, but after a game out of the lineup, he will likely dress Thursday against Minnesota while serving in his typical top-four capacity. In the meantime, Jack Thompson is projected to draw back into the lineup Tuesday after being scratched Saturday.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Generates helper in win
Walman logged an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Walman helped out on an Alexander Wennberg tally in the second period, which tied the game at 2-2. With seven points over his last three games, Walman has exploded on offense as the Sharks have won three in a row. The 28-year-old defenseman is up to nine points, 32 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 14 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 12 appearances. He's already nearly halfway to his production from 63 games in 2023-24 -- a top-pairing role and power-play spot in San Jose has made Walman a viable option in standard fantasy formats, though he won't sustain his recent scoring pace.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Standout performer in win
Walman scored a goal, dished two assists, went plus-4 and added four PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
Walman has erased a slow start to the year with back-to-back three-point efforts in the Sharks' first two wins of the season. The defenseman is up to one goal, seven helpers, 30 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 13 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 11 outings. Walman still carries some risk in fantasy, but he's seeing big minutes and a decent share of power-play time, which makes him a viable depth option in certain formats.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Three helpers in OT win
Walman notched three assists in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.
All three points came in during a two-minute stretch late in the third period as Walman fueled a wild comeback by the Sharks from a 4-1 deficit. It's the first multi-point performance of the season for the veteran defenseman, and while Walman is seeing time with San Jose's first power-play unit, he's gotten onto the scoresheet in only three of the team's first 10 contests.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Helps out on power play
Walman notched a power-play assist, five shots on goal, two blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 8-3 loss to the Jets.
Walman helped out on a Tyler Toffoli tally. This was Walman's second assist in five games, and he's added 14 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, five hits and a minus-1 rating. The 28-year-old defenseman is playing in a large role this season, which includes quarterbacking the first power-play unit for the first time in his career. The Sharks' early injuries have hampered their offense, but Walman should still offer decent scoring while also logging a high volume of blocks.

Sharks' Jake Walman: Earns helper in overtime loss
Walman notched an assist and blocked seven shots in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blues.
Walman had the secondary helper on Macklin Celebrini's first NHL goal. The 28-year-old Walman is set to play in a much larger role than he's ever had in the NHL -- he opened the campaign on the top pairing and first power-play unit. Walman had a career-high 21 points, including four on the power play, over 63 contests with the Red Wings last year before he was traded in a salary dump to San Jose in June. While he's poised for a career year, the move to the Sharks will likely saddle him with an ugly plus-minus rating.

San Jose acquired Walman and a 2024 second-round pick from Detroit on Tuesday in exchange for future considerations.
Walman produced 12 goals, 21 points, 108 shots on net and 151 blocked shots in 63 games during the 2023-24 campaign. The 28-year-old defender has two more seasons left on his three-year, $10.2 million contract. As a member of the Sharks, Walman could occupy a top-four role and see power-play time.
