Tomas Hertl News
Newly acquired center Tomas Hertl said he hopes to be back with the Vegas Golden Knights in about two weeks. The former Sharks pivot was surprisingly acquired by the Golden Knights on Friday in exchange for forward David Edstrom and a first-round pick in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. Hertl sustained a knee injury while with the Sharks and underwent surgery to clean out loose cartilage in his left knee on Feb. 12. "I will slowly get back on the ice," Hertl said. I'm just making sure I don't do anything, like, extra, so I'm 100 percent. Hopefully, over like the next week or so, we will figure out more." Hertl has tallied 15 goals and 34 points on the season but should see an uptick in production on a Vegas club sporting a much superior offense to that of the San Jose Sharks.
The Vegas Golden Knights have acquired center Tomas Hertl (knee) from the San Jose Sharks. The team gave up its 2025 first-round pick and prospect forward David Edstrom in a deal to get him while also receiving a 2025 third-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick from the Sharks. San Jose retains 17 percent of Hertl's salary as part of the trade. Hertl, a 17th pick by the Sharks in 2012, moves on from San Jose after representing the team in 712 regular-season contests. He had 218 goals and 484 points with the Sharks, including 34 points (15 goals, 19 assists) in 48 appearances in 2023-24. Hertl hasn't played since the All-Star break due to a knee injury, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return, but he's a big addition for the defending champions, and his numbers should get a boost now that he's playing on a much better team.
San Jose Sharks center Tomas Hertl won't be available for "several weeks" after having knee surgery, the team announced on Monday. He had his left knee cleaned to remove loose cartilage. The news came after Hertl had sat out two games, although he took part in the All-Star Game at the start of the month. The Czech star has been the leading scorer for the goal-shy Sharks in 2023-24, posting 34 points (15 goals, 19 assists) in 48 games. William Eklund should have a very prominent role to play during his absence, particularly with Logan Couture (groin) also unavailable.
San Jose Sharks center Tomas Hertl (lower body) will sit out a second consecutive game on Wednesday versus Anaheim. After picking up a lower-body injury against Buffalo at the weekend, Hertl hoped to play Tuesday versus Seattle but wasn't in the lineup and will also skip Wednesday's game. William Eklund was moved to center on Tuesday to compensate for Hertl's absence. He had a good game with two assists and should be one of San Jose's biggest threats against the Ducks again.
