Blichfeld, Halbgewachs Sign Entry-Level Contracts With San Jose Sharks

December 28, 2017 at 2:14 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

After the Danish World Junior team was dismantled by Finland earlier today, one player at least has something to celebrate. Joachim Blichfeld has signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the San Jose Sharks. Blichfeld was selected in the seventh round in 2016, and plays with the Portland Winterhawks of the WHL when not representing Denmark internationally.

From the Sharks press release:

Joachim is a natural goal scorer and can change a game with his shooting ability and hockey sense. He has proven to be one of the top goal scorers in the Western Hockey League and his puck possession game fits well with the way we want to play. We’re excited to see Joachim continue to evolve as a player.

Jayden Halbgewachs has also signed an entry-level deal with the Sharks, after going undrafted despite starring for the Moose Jaw Warriors of the WHL. Halbgewachs is only 5’8″ 160-lbs, but scored 101 points last season and already has 61 through his first 36 games this season.

GM Doug Wilson also had high praise for Halbgewachs:

Jayden is the top goal scorer in Canadian major juniors and has been one of the top point producers in the WHL over the last two season. His combination of elite speed, high-end skill and ability to pressure both ends of the ice make him a dangerous player who makes others around him better. We’re excited he is joining our organization.

Indeed, the Sharks have added two excellent goal scorers to their stable of prospects. The pair has 48 this season in just 52 games, and should add some punch to the minor leagues when they make the jump to the professional ranks in 2018-19.
