Impact Thompson has played just once in the last seven games, so it's possible the organization wants him to get some playing time. Shakir Mukhamadullin was recalled in a corresponding move.

Heads to AHL Thompson is no longer listed on the Sharks' NHL roster, indicating he has been reassigned to AHL San Jose, per the NHL media site.
Recalled from minors Thompson was brought up from AHL San Jose on Tuesday.
Impact Thompson has been in and out of the lineup for the Sharks this season, and he'll be back with the big club ahead of Wednesday's home matchup with the Sens. Yaroslav Askarov was assigned to the Barracuda in a corresponding move. Thompson has chipped in two goals and three assists from the back end over 13 games with San Jose in 2024-25.

Sent down to minors Thompson was assigned to AHL San Jose on Monday, per the NHL media site.
Impact The Sharks activated Nico Sturm (upper body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move. Thompson has two goals, three assists, 17 shots on net and 20 blocked shots across 13 NHL outings this season.
NOVEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in shootout loss Thompson scored a goal in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flyers.
Impact Thompson has two goals over his last four games. The 22-year-old defenseman has clear scoring upside, but the Sharks are taking a careful approach with his minutes so far -- he's averaging 16:34 of ice time per game over 10 appearances. He's collected five points, 10 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating, and he may sit out occasionally once Jake Walman (upper body) is healthy.

Scores first career goal Thompson scored a goal and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Impact Thompson had been scratched in two of the previous four games, but he took the spot of Jake Walman in the lineup Tuesday. The 22-year-old Thompson's goal was the first of his career to go with three assists over seven appearances this season. He has some scoring upside, especially as part of the Sharks' power-play mix on the blue line. The blueliner has added eight shots on net, 12 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating in a bottom-four role at even strength.

Registers pair of assists Thompson had two power-play assists, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Kings.
Impact Thompson's usage is starting to get interesting -- he is on the Sharks' top power-play unit, and while he was listed on the third pairing Thursday, he led the team's blueliners with 20:34 of ice time. Thompson has three assists, four shots on net, seven blocked shots, two hits and a minus-2 rating over three outings this season. Even if he serves as a power-play specialist, Thompson will have appeal in deeper fantasy formats, especially those where an ugly plus-minus rating is not a concern.

Earns first career helper Thompson notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Ducks.
Impact Thompson earned his first career helper in his fifth appearance. The 22-year-old blueliner has drawn into two straight games, with Matt Benning serving as a healthy scratch after a lackluster start to 2024-25. Thompson has added three shots on net, four blocked shots and two hits over his two contests. He's likely to stay on the third pairing at even strength, but he could see power-play time as well, which could give him a path to fantasy rosters in deep formats if he's productive in that role.

Recalled from AHL Thompson was called up from AHL San Jose on Saturday.
Impact In a corresponding move, San Jose placed Macklin Celebrini (lower body) on injured reserve. The 22-year-old Thompson supplied one goal and eight assists in 16 AHL contests during the 2023-24 regular season.

The 21-year-old defenseman was selected with the No. 93 overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft.
