Granlund is in the final year of a four-year, $5.0M AAV deal. The veteran forward is having an outstanding season, recording 15 goals and 30 assist (45 points) in 52 games with the Sharks. He will provide depth in the Stars' middle-6, which was lacking a little bit following the injury to Tyler Seguin.

Granlund did not practice on Wednesday but will be available for Thursday's game against the Seattle Kraken. The 32-year-old Granlund has had a productive second season in San Jose, tallying 44 points (15G / 29A) in 51 games. He has seven points (3G / 4A) in his last five contests.

Granlund left Wednesday's game late in the third period. He was eager to get in the mix for an offensive zone faceoff but was forced out of the game by a concussion spotter. Evidently, he was no worse for wear as he will be in the lineup on Thursday.

Granlund suffered a significant upper-body injury, and although he will not need surgery, he is expected to be out on a week-to-week basis. With 29 points (5G / 24A) in 38 games, Granlund was pacing for his second-best point output in the last six seasons.

Granlund will be available on Sunday for the first time since he suffered a lower-body injury in the team's season opener on October 12th. Granlund was acquired in the off-season as part of the three-team trade that sent Erik Karlsson to the Penguins. Granlund registered ten goals and 31 assists in 79 games split between the Predators and Penguins last season.

Sharks Head Coach David Quinn says he expects to have Granlund available on Sunday for the first time since he suffered a lower-body injury in the team's season opener on October 12th. Granlund was acquired in the off-season as part of the three-team trade that sent Erik Karlsson to the Penguins. Granlund registered ten goals and 31 assists in 79 games split between the Predators and Penguins last season.

Granlund suffered a lower-body injury in the Sharks' season opener on Thursday and landed on IR on Saturday. The move to IR opened up a roster spot for the Sharks to recall Jacob Peterson, who will make his season debut Saturday vs. the Avalanche.

Granlund played 15:36 in the Sharks' season-opener but has since been placed on IR, meaning he will miss at least the next three games. Granlund is coming off a 79-game campaign that saw him net 41 points (10G / 31A) in time split between the Nashville Predators and Pittsburgh Penguins. No corresponding moves have been made just yet but it is possible that rookie Thomas Bordeleau could shift up to Granlund's position as the second-line center. Bordeleau has seven points (0G / 7A) in 17 career NHL games.

Granlund has been acquired by San Jose as part of a three-way trade which involved Montreal and superstar Erik Karlsson heading to Pittsburgh. The 31-year-old centre is coming off a 10 goals, 31 assist, 111 SOG, and -16 plus/minus season in 2022-23 with both Nashville and Pittsburgh and will be joining his fourth NHL team in San Jose. He has 145 goals, 484 points and 1,400 SOG through 750 career NHL games.
