Sharks' Kiefer Sherwood: Tallies in overtime loss
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a goal and added eight hits in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blues.
This was Sherwood's first game since he signed a five-year extension with the Sharks. The 30-year-old winger is locked in as part of this team's core for a while, and he'll be a middle-six fixture with nearly unmatched physicality. Through 50 appearances between the Sharks and the Canucks this season, he has 19 goals, seven assists, 128 shots on net, 246 hits and a minus-10 rating.

Sharks' Kiefer Sherwood: Agrees to five-year extension
Rotowire
Sherwood signed a five-year, $28.75 million contract extension with San Jose on Wednesday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
The Sharks acquired Sherwood from Vancouver on Jan. 19 in exchange for a 2026 second-round pick, a 2027 second-round selection and Cole Clayton. The 30-year-old Sherwood has 18 goals, 25 points, 127 shots, 30 PIM and 238 hits in 49 outings between Vancouver and San Jose in 2025-26. Although his overall points production isn't high, he does enough between his physical play and goal-scoring abilities to log significant minutes. He's averaged 17:32 of ice time this season, and that trend has continued with him logging 17:21 per game across four outings since the Olympic break.

Sharks' Kiefer Sherwood: Ready to return
Rotowire
Sherwood (upper body) will be activated from injured reserve to play against Colorado on Wednesday, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
Sherwood hasn't played since Jan. 10 due to the injury and will make his San Jose debut after being acquired from Vancouver on Jan. 19. Based on Tuesday's practice, he could skate on the top line and work on the second power-play unit. He has 17 goals and 23 points in 44 outings in 2025-26. Pavol Regenda is likely to be a healthy scratch versus the Avalanche due to Sherwood's return.

Sherwood (upper body) hopes to be ready in time to face Vancouver on Tuesday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports Thursday.
Sherwood certainly would like to face his former club, but evidently is facing an uphill battle to be ready in time.

Sherwood is on injured reserve and has been out of action since Jan. 10.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Managing injury
Rotowire
Sherwood (undisclosed) is day-to-day and could miss as much as a week, according to Thomas Drance of The Athletic on Monday.
Sherwood participated in the morning skate, but he won't play against Montreal on Monday, and the Canucks will probably be cautious with him. The 30-year-old forward is eligible for unrestricted free agency in the summer and is a popular trade candidate. He has accounted for 17 goals, 23 points, 109 shots on net and 210 hits across 44 appearances this season.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Strikes on power play Friday
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a power-play goal on two shots and added five hits in Friday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Kraken.
Sherwood's offense has been anything but consistent lately -- he ended a five-game slump with his second-period tally. He's scored five goals over his last 18 games, but three of them came versus the Islanders on Dec. 19. Over that span, he's still racked up 93 hits, and he remains highly valuable in banger leagues. Sherwood has produced 17 goals, four assists, 96 shots on net, 189 hits, 20 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 40 appearances.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Nets power-play goal in loss
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.
Sherwood's scoring fortunes have faded alongside the Canucks' drop to the bottom of the standings. His goal Thursday ended an eight-game point drought. The winger is still seeing prominent minutes, but he doesn't often generate offense on his own. Sherwood is at 13 goals, four assists, 69 shots on net, 136 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 31 appearances. He's still shooting 18.8 percent, so more regression could be on the way.

Rotowire
Sherwood recorded two assists, one shot on net, four PIM, three hits and a plus-1 rating in Monday's 8-5 loss to the Panthers.

Sherwood has gotten onto the scoresheet in five of the last six games, and through 21 games on the season, he's delivered 12 goals, 15 points, an NHL-high 93 hits, 39 shots on net, 16 PIM and a minus-1 rating.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Pots another goal
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a goal on four shots and added eight hits in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Jets.
Sherwood has scored in back-to-back games, and he's gotten on the scoresheet in three straight contests. The 30-year-old winger's eight hits Tuesday marked a season high, though he's no stranger to lofty hit totals after setting the single-season record (462) last year. Sherwood has 11 goals, one assist, 37 shots, 79 hits, 12 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 18 appearances this season. He's been on the second line over the last few games, which should offer him more chances to generate offense.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Scores in overtime loss
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Avalanche.
Sherwood snapped a four-game goal drought -- his longest of the season -- with an unassisted tally in the second period. The veteran winger has a goal and an assist over his last two games. He was limited to a season-low one hit Sunday, but he remains a strong power forward with 10 goals, one assist, 71 hits, 33 shots on net and a minus-3 rating across 17 appearances.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Stays hot with hat trick
Rotowire
Sherwood scored three goals on five shots and added four hits in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Blues.
Sherwood has scored nine goals this season, including five against the Blues. One of his tallies Thursday came on the power play. The 30-year-old has added 24 shots on net, 54 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-3 rating across 12 appearances. Sherwood shooting 37.5 percent won't last, but he could be poised for an even more significant role if Brock Boeser (undisclosed) misses time after exiting Thursday's game. Count on Sherwood for decent offense and elite physical play.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Scores twice in overtime win
Rotowire
Sherwood scored two goals on five shots and added four hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Oilers.
Sherwood's tally late in the second period put the Canucks ahead 3-1. When that didn't end up being enough, he came through in overtime, tipping home a Brock Boeser shot for the game-winning goal. Sherwood has been all goals and hits to begin 2025-26, racking up six tallies on 19 shots and adding 45 hits through 10 appearances. He hasn't had a lot of game-to-game consistency on offense, but the thin Canucks' lineup allows him to maintain a middle-six role with power-play time.

Canucks' Kiefer Sherwood: Hot scoring start continues
Rotowire
Sherwood scored a goal on his only shot, blocked one shot and delivered four hits during his 23:15 of ice time in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Capitals.
Due to his status as an all-situations player, Sherwood's 23:15 of ice time was the most among all Canucks forwards. So far, he's really taken advantage of that distinction, and he scored his first power-play goal, and fourth goal overall, of the season. With some injury questions up front for Vancouver following Sunday's game -- both Filip Chytil (upper body) and Jonathan Lekkerimaki (undisclosed) left early with injuries -- it's certainly possible that Sherwood will get increased opportunities in the short term to continue his hot start.
