It’s official — the San Jose Sharks have signed center Jasper Weatherby to a two-year entry-level contract. The terms of the deal have not yet been reported and club policy is not to disclose player salaries, but the maximum amount for an ELC is $925,000, with a minors salary of $80,000. The Sharks selected Weatherby in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft in the fourth round (102nd overall).
If you caught the Sharks’ Development Camp Scrimmage, then you may have noticed Weatherby on the ice. Not only did the 23-year-old notch an assist on Team Ricci’s equalizer goal that began a flood of offensive power in the second, but he had an explosive third period, complete with a goal of his own, his team’s second powerplay goal of the night.
