The San Jose Sharks signed Andre Gasseau to a two-year, two-way entry-level contract on July 1, 2026.
Gasseau, the Boston College captain, was originally selected by the Boston Bruins in the seventh round of the 2021 NHL Draft, but his draft rights were traded to the San Jose Sharks on June 18, 2026.
The Sharks, currently 11th in the Western Conference with a 39-35 record, are on a W1 streak.
Gasseau's signing adds depth to the Sharks' forward lineup, and his experience as a captain at Boston College suggests he can make an immediate impact.
He played 135 games for Boston College, scoring 43 goals and 68 assists.
Gasseau will join the Sharks for their upcoming season, and his two-way contract allows him to play in both the NHL and the AHL.
The Sharks are looking to improve their standing in the Western Conference, and Gasseau's addition could be a key factor in their success.
Gasseau's career-best 30 points came during the 2024-25 campaign, with 15 goals and 15 assists.
He also played a key role in Boston College's 21st Beanpot title, scoring two goals against Boston University.
The Sharks' fans are eager to see Gasseau in action, and his signing has generated excitement around the team.
Gasseau's injury in the 2025-26 season limited him to 23 appearances, but he still managed to score six goals and 17 assists.
The Sharks' coaching staff will be working with Gasseau to help him reach his full potential and contribute to the team's success.
