The later rounds of the 2025 NHL Draft are officially in the books, and the Sharks have made their last seven picks on day 2. As in previous years with my Sharks NHL Draft Rounds 2-7 recaps, I do not plan to go in depth on each Sharks later-round selection due to my general unfamiliarity with them and their lower probability of eventually making the NHL. Here is each selection made on day 2 by the Sharks:
Round 2, Pick 33: Simon (Haoxi) Wang, Defenseman, Oshawa Generals (OHL)
Round 2, Pick 53: Cole McKinney, Center, USNTDP
Round 3, Pick 95: Teddy Mutryn, Center, Chicago Steel (USHL)
Round 4, Pick 115: Ilyas Magomedsultanov, Defenseman, Yaroslavl Jr. (Russia)
Round 4, Pick 124: Zachary Sharp, Defenseman, Western Michigan (NCAA)
Round 5, Pick 150: Max Heise, Center, Penicton Vees (BCHL)
Round 7, Pick 210: Richard Gallant, Left Wing, USNTDP
It is worth noting that the Sharks' first selection of day 2, Simon Wang, is the highest drafted Chinese-born player in NHL history with the 33rd overall pick. San Jose's second pick of the second round of this year's draft, Cole McKinney, is an underrated, potential sleeper selection at no. 53 overall, as he is a big, physical forward that was once a top scorer for the USNTDP. As for the Sharks’ selections in rounds 3-7, I have no strong feelings about any of them, but I hope they all become successful in their professional hockey careers and can have positive impacts in the NHL someday.
Overall, 2025 has produced another solid draft class for the San Jose Sharks, headlined by the best forward and arguably the best goalie in the entire class. Next up, the Sharks are expected to be busy over the next few days with free agency set to open on Tuesday, July 1, so watch this space to find out everything Team Teal has in store for the remainder of the offseason.
