The San Jose Sharks signed forward Kiefer Sherwood on Wednesday to a five-year, $28.75 million extension six weeks after acquiring him in a trade from Vancouver.
The Sharks dealt 2026 and '27 second-round draft picks and minor league defenseman Cole Clayton to Vancouver for the 30-year-old Sherwood on Jan. 19 and hoped to lock up the pending free agent with a long-term deal before Friday's trade deadline.
"We are very excited to have Kiefer remain in San Jose and be part of the group that we are building," general manager Mike Grier said. "The ingredients he brings to our lineup on a nightly basis blend extremely well with the skill sets of his teammates and we look forward to his contributions in the years to come."
San Jose got the deal done a day after Sherwood scored his first goal in five games for the Sharks when he scored on the power play for the game-winner against Montreal.
