  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Provides two helpers in win

    Granlund provided two power-play assists in Saturday's 2-1 win over Ottawa.

    With the Sharks on the power play, Granlund had a hand in both goals scored by Thomas Bordeleau to propel the Sharks out of a nine-game losing streak. Granlund added two shots and a whopping four blocked shots while leading all forwards with 23:39 of ice time. Granlund has eight points, including two goals and six assists, over his past six outings. With the number of minutes he plays as a forward, including on the power play, the 32-year-old center might be someone worth picking up for managers seeking more point production heading toward the fantasy playoffs.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: One of each Tuesday

    Granlund scored a goal on two shots, added a power-play assist, blocked two shots, logged four PIM and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Stars.

    Granlund did a little bit of everything in the high-scoring contest. The 32-year-old center has six points over his last four games and continues to look good in a top-line role despite the Sharks' overall struggles. He's up to nine goals, 29 assists, 95 shots on net, 51 hits, 41 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 48 appearances this season.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Opens scoring in loss

    Granlund opened the scoring during Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.

    Granlund rose to the occasion, scoring against the team that drafted him. Still, it's just his eighth tally of the season. Despite the meager goal total, he has actually provided decent offensive production, which may be going unnoticed since he's playing on an offensively starved, defensively porous team. Granlund is averaging more than 20 minutes per night and has posted a team-leading 36 points in 47 games, for an average of 0.77 points per game. Those aren't Auston Matthews numbers, but there is definitely middle-of-the-lineup value there if you can overlook Granlund's minus-9 rating.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Power-play apple vendor

    Granlund logged three power-play assists, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Ducks.

    Granlund had a hand in all three of the Sharks' power-play tallies Thursday. The 32-year-old center has two goals and four assists over his last seven outings, with all of those helpers coming on the power play. For the season, he's at 35 points (13 on the power play), 89 shots on net, 50 hits, 37 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 45 appearances.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Scores in Saturday's loss

    Granlund scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Predators.

    Granlund got the Sharks on the board early in the third period. This was the first time he's scored against the Predators in two games since being traded by the team last March. The 31-year-old forward has three points over five games since he returned from an upper-body injury. For the season, Granlund has seven goals, 32 points, 86 shots on net and a minus-7 rating over 43 outings. He'll likely continue to operate as the Sharks' top center with Logan Couture (groin) and Tomas Hertl (knee) sidelined.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Lends power-play helper

    Granlund notched a power-play assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.

    Granlund helped out on Fabian Zetterlund's tally in the second period. This was Granlund's second straight game with a point. The 31-year-old center is seeing top-line minutes with Tomas Hertl (knee) and Logan Couture (groin) sidelined. Granlund has 31 points, 80 shots on net, 46 hits, 35 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 41 appearances. He's a bright spot in the Sharks' lineup and should maintain some fantasy appeal while in a top-six role.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Nets goal in win

    Granlund scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flames.

    Granlund had gone six games without a goal, and he missed six contests with an upper-body injury in that span. The 31-year-old has vaulted to the first-line center role with Tomas Hertl (knee) and Logan Couture (groin) on the shelf. Granlund is up to six goals, 30 points, 79 shots on net, 42 hits, 35 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 40 appearances this season. He's more of a pass-first player, but the larger role should give him enough offense to be rostered in standard fantasy formats.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Back in action Wednesday

    Granlund (upper body) will suit up versus Winnipeg on Wednesday, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports.

    Granlund returns to the lineup after missing the last six games due to his upper-body injury. Granlund is expected to step into the first-line center role following the injuries to Tomas Hertl (knee) and Logan Couture (groin). In addition, Granlund will link up with the No. 1 power-play unit.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Surfaces on IR

    Granlund (upper body) was put on injured reserve Saturday, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

    Granlund, who was injured in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to Chicago, won't eligible to return until at least Jan. 27 against Buffalo. He has accumulated five goals, 29 points, 73 shots on net, 32 blocked shots and 36 hits over 38 games this season. The Sharks will get back Logan Couture (lower body) and Nico Sturm (middle body) in Saturday's contest against Anaheim, which should help soften the blow of losing Granlund.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Considered week-to-week

    Granlund (shoulder) will be out week-to-week but likely avoided surgery, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Granlund was injured Tuesday against Chicago and is expected to miss some time but appears to have avoided a long-term recovery. The veteran forward has tallied five goals and 29 points through 38 games this season. In his absence, Tomas Hertl and Luke Kunin will likely see increased roles.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Injured Tuesday

    Granlund (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's matchup against Chicago.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Garners assist in loss

    Granlund recorded an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Red Wings.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Earns 20th helper of season

    Granlund notched a power-play assist, two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Avalanche.

    Granlund set up Tomas Hertl's tally in the second period. The helper was Granlund's 20th of the campaign, which is all the more impressive given the Sharks' weak offense and the fact he missed two weeks in October. The forward is up to 24 points (eight on the power play), 62 shots on net, 26 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 30 appearances. Most Sharks aren't steady enough for fantasy, but Granlund is one of the exceptions to that rule.

The 31-year-old Granlund has six multi-point efforts over 11 outings in December. He's yet to see his offense fade, racking up four goals and 23 points through 27 contests. The Finn has added 58 shots on net, 24 hits, 22 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating while mainly playing on the second line.

    Granlund notched two power-play assists, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche.

    Granlund saw a six-game point streak end in Friday's 1-0 loss to the Coyotes. Through eight contests in December, Granlund has been among the best forwards in the league with two goals and 12 assists. The 31-year-old is up to 21 points (seven on the power play), 53 shots on net, 23 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 24 appearances. He looks set to be a top-six fixture for the rest of the season in San Jose.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Stays hot with helper

    Granlund notched an assist and four shots on goal in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Jets.

    Granlund has racked up two goals and 10 assists during his six-game point streak. The 31-year-old led all Sharks with 25:09 of ice time in this win, and he won 14 of his 22 faceoffs for good measure. Granlund is up to 19 points, 47 shots on net, 23 hits, 16 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 22 appearances. Remarkably, he's converting just 6.4 percent of his shots -- better puck luck could see his offense rise to another level from the already impressive work he's doing now.

  • Sharks' Mikael Granlund: Dishes two assists Sunday

    Granlund provided a pair of assists in Sunday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Golden Knights.

He's up to a strong three goals, 15 assists, 43 shots on net, 23 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 21 appearances this season. Granlund's spot on the second line is safe as long as his offense remains at least decent.
