Sharks Sign Scott Harrington

September 30, 2022 at 3:03 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

Scott Harrington’s tryout with San Jose was a successful one as the team announced that they’ve signed the 29-year-old to a one-year contract.  Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed while he is the first player to get upgraded to a full contract from a PTO agreement.  GM Mike Grier released the following statement:

Scott came into camp on a tryout, performed well, and earned his contract. He’s a high character person and we are excited to have him join the Sharks.

Harrington spent most of last season with AHL Cleveland, an affiliate of the Blue Jackets, where he got into 50 games, recording three goals and four assists.  On the surface, nothing particularly special.  However, it’s worth noting that it was his first taste of action in the minors since a pair of appearances in 2016-17.  Between that time, Harrington had been a regular depth defender in Columbus.

For his career, Harrington has 210 NHL games under his belt between Pittsburgh, Toronto, and Columbus with only seven of those appearances coming last season.  He has 38 points in those outings while averaging 13:37 per night in ice time.  Harrington will still have to battle for a roster spot but there is definitely an opening with the long-term injury to Nikolai Knyzhov.  Harrington could slot in as their seventh defender, a role he’s quite comfortable holding if nothing else.  If the Sharks want to send him to their AHL affiliate to start the season, however, they will need to send Harrington through waivers over the coming weeks.

    Scott Harrington was an underappreciated contributor to the Pens 16 and 17 Cup wins.

    He was long gone and never very good BUT the part where he played for the London Knights and Mark Hunter overvalued him allowed us to get Phil Kessel for two assets and a guy only Mark Hunter still wanted at that point instead of three assets.
