Impact Carlsson has been with the Sharks since March 21, suiting up in 12 straight games. Presumably, he'll also be in the lineup Wednesday versus the Oilers for the Sharks' season finale. Should he clear waivers, he'll head to AHL San Jose to help the Barracuda's playoff run.

Manages assist Sunday Carlsson provided an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Flames.

Impact This ended an eight-game point drought for Carlsson. The 27-year-old has gotten a chance to play with the big club and even see some power-play time as injuries continue to pile up among the Sharks' defensemen.

Nabs helper in shootout win Carlsson logged an assist, four PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Carlsson has three points over two contests with the Sharks. He set up Tyler Toffoli's opening goal at 7:50 of the first period in this game. Carlsson is getting a chance to audition for an NHL job next season -- he's already under contract for 2025-26, but he's on a two-way deal, which makes it more palatable for him to be stashed in the AHL. Even if he stays with the Sharks for the rest of the season, fantasy managers should remain cautious, as it's unlikely he can keep up this scoring pace.

Lucas Carlsson's late goal helps Sharks sink slumping Bruins 3-1 Saturday's game marked the fifth-straight loss for the Bruins, giving them the third-longest active losing streak in the NHL.

MARCH 23 • BOSTON.COM

Two points in return to NHL Carlsson scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Bruins.

Impact This was Carlsson's first NHL action since early in the 2022-23 campaign with the Panthers. The 27-year-old defenseman last got on the scoresheet in an NHL game the year before that, but he made the most of his Sharks debut with the game-winning tally at 16:37 of the third period, as well as a helper on Barclay Goodrow's empty-netter. Carlsson has a chance to stick with the big club while Henry Thrun (upper body) and Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) are on the mend, though Jimmy Schuldt has also bounced between the NHL and AHL levels recently. Even with Saturday's impressive performance, Carlsson is unlikely to be much of an option for fantasy managers given his limited track record.
