  • Sharks' Will Smith: Garners helper in Saturday's win

    Smith notched an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Bruins.

    Smith set up Lucas Carlsson's first goal as a Shark at 16:37 of the third period, and that tally held up as the game-winner. The 20-year-old Smith had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two contests, but he still has four goals and six assists over 10 outings in March. For the season, he's fourth in the rookie scoring race with 36 points over 62 appearances. He's added 103 shots on net and a minus-9 rating this season while mostly seeing top-six minutes since late December.

For the season, Smith is up to 33 points, 91 shots on net and a minus-12 rating across 58 appearances. While those aren't Macklin Celebrini numbers, Smith has had a strong rookie year and looks to be a big part of the Sharks' offense for years to come.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Third two-point game in last four

    Smith had a goal and an assist in a 6-2 win over Buffalo on Tuesday night.

    Smith's goal extended the Sharks' lead to 5-2 at 12:49 of the third period when he scored blocker side from the left circle on a 3-on-1 rush. The 19-year-old has put up three, two-point games (three goals, three assists) in his last four appearances. Smith is a distant fourth on the rookie scoring list with 30 points (11 goals, 19 assists), but his upside is immense.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Three-game, five-point streak

    Smith scored a power-play goal in a 5-3 loss to the Senators on Saturday.

    Smith has two goals and three assists during his five-point streak (two goals, three assists), and he has 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in his last 13 outings. Don't over-invest in single-year formats. Smith is on a nice run, and he certainly has talent -- he sits in a tie for fourth in the NHL rookie chase with 28 points. But he's just 19 years of age, and in the last three seasons, he's played a total of 97 games, including 41 at Boston College last season. Smith will invariably hit the exhaustion wall that all young college players hit.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Two points in OT loss

    Smith scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.

    The fourth overall pick in the 2023 Draft produced his first multi-point performance since Jan. 20, helping to set up Fabian Zetterlund early in the first period before snapping home a tally of his own late in the second. Smith is coming into his own, racking up three goals and 11 points over the last 12 games with an impressive plus-8 rating for a Sharks team that has only one win during that span.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Riding six-game point streak

    Smith provided an assist in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken.

    Smith has been hot recently, earning two goals and five assists, along with a plus-7 rating, during his six-game point streak. The 19-year-old forward kept the good times going when he set up Carl Grundstrom's tally in the first period. Smith has grown into more production and ice time as the season progresses. He's now at 22 points, 63 shots on net and a minus-10 rating over 46 appearances.

    Smith extended his point streak to four games (two goals, three assists), and he's gone plus-5 in that span. The 19-year-old also led all Sharks forward with 18:43 of ice time Saturday, his third-highest mark in a game this season. He has eight goals, 12 assists, 62 shots on net and a minus-12 rating across 44 appearances and looks to be gaining trust with head coach Ryan Warsofsky. Smith has played on the top line lately and may be worth considering in fantasy formats that value offense.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Collects two points Monday

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Deals assist Tuesday

    Smith notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.

    Smith has gone eight games without a goal, but he has two helpers over his last five appearances.

Smith is up to 15 points, 55 shots on net and a minus-15 rating over 38 contests in 2024-25.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Goal, assist in loss

    Smith scored a goal on three shots and added an assist in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Smith ended a seven-game dry spell Friday, though he also missed three contests in that span due to an upper-body injury. The 19-year-old natural center has been playing on the wing a bit lately, and he was on the second line in this contest. He's up to six goals, 13 points, 43 shots and a minus-11 rating through 30 appearances -- those aren't Calder-caliber numbers, but he's been fine for a rookie forward on a low-scoring team.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Set to play Saturday

    Smith (upper body) is expected to be activated off injured reserve and play Saturday versus Utah, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Smith has five goals and 11 points in 24 outings in 2024-25. He missed three straight games due to the injury. Smith will likely serve in a middle-six capacity in his return.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Designated for IR

    Smith (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Even using a retroactive designation, Smith will need to miss at least the next two games for the Sharks after being placed on IR. In a corresponding move, the team activated Barclay Goodrow (upper body), who figures to rejoin the lineup against Carolina on Tuesday.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Out of action Saturday

    Smith (upper body) will not be in the lineup Saturday in Florida, according to Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

    Smith will be replaced in the lineup by Ethan Cardwell. Smith, the fourth overall pick in the 2023 Draft, has five goals and six assists across 24 games this season. Consider him day-to-day at this time.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Questionable for Saturday

    Smith is questionable for Saturday's tilt against Florida because of an undisclosed injury, according to Max Miller of NHL.com.

    Smith has five goals and 11 points in 24 appearances in 2024-25. If he can't play, then perhaps Ethan Cardwell will draw into the lineup after being a healthy scratch in San Jose's past two games.

  • Sharks' Will Smith: Plays in full back-to-back

    Smith scored a goal and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

    For the first time in his young career, Smith played in both halves of a back-to-back. He had previously sat out a game in those situations over the first quarter of the campaign, and it's unclear if Saturday signals a shift in the Sharks' development plan for the 19-year-old, or if his offense was simply too hot to bench. Smith has three goals and four assists over his last four contests, giving him five goals, 11 points, 31 shots on net and a minus-7 rating across 22 appearances this season.
