Jack Thompson

Thompson bounced between the Sharks and AHL San Jose in 2024-25, but he saw the most NHL action of his young career, collecting four goals, six assists and 54 blocked shots over 31 appearances. While those numbers are intriguing, albeit in a limited sample size, the Sharks brought in multiple veteran defensemen during the offseason, and Thompson is signed to a two-way contract for 2025-26, so he might spend the bulk of the campaign in the minors. As such, the 23-year-old is a name worth keeping an eye on for the future, as he’s unlikely to have much fantasy relevance this season. Read Past Outlooks
