With their own sixth-round pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, the San Jose Sharks selected left winger Liam Gilmartin at 167 overall.
Gilmartin’s team history reads like a path straight to the NHL; starting with the Washington Little Caps and Shattuck St. Mary’s AAA teams, the Heidlberg, Germany native joined the United States National Team Development Program in the 2019-20 season.
In both the United States Hockey League and United States Development Program over the last two season, Gilmartin hovers right around a half a point per game (ppg). His USHL totals are slightly less, with 13 goals and 11 assists over 52 games (.
