Thomas Bordeleau hasn’t shown his full arsenal in the NHL.
His last stint with the San Jose Sharks suggests it could happen in the 2024-25 season.
“Just using my vision a lot more,” Bordeleau, just re-signed by the San Jose Sharks to a one-year, $874,125 contract, said on Friday. “I feel like I lost a part of that in my game somewhere along the way.”
The San Jose Sharks’ 2020 second-round pick scored five goals and four assists in 21 games in his fourth NHL stint, and most importantly, played a safer, more defensively sound game.
In parts of three seasons, Bordeleau has put up six goals and 12 assists in 43 games.
On a show-me deal, can the 22-year-old take his game to another level?
