NHL: Eetu Makiniemi, acquired from the Carolina Hurricanes in the Brent Burns trade, was recalled by the San Jose Sharks earlier this week
SAN JOSE – Goalie Eetu Makiniemi faced some uncertainty about his future after he discovered last year that he needed surgery on his lower back, cutting short what had been a promising first season of North American professional hockey.
Makiniemi’s surgery went as he hoped, and after a long recovery, has been able to resume his burgeoning career. “He’s played well ,” Sharks coach David Quinn said of Makiniemi, “so, a chance to get him up here and see how he adjusts.” The Sharks also received forward Steven Lorentz and a conditional 2023 third-round draft choice in the Burns deal, which helped the Sharks free up some space under the NHL’s salary cap.
Other Sharks goalie prospects under contract include Strauss Mann, signed to a one-year deal in April, and Zach Emond, a 2018 sixth-round draft pick now in the ECHL.
