The San Jose Sharks cut 10 players from their training camp roster on Monday with no surprises once again. Forward Timo Meier, who was selected ninth overall by the Sharks during the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, was one of them.
Meier was reassigned to his junior team, the Halifx Mooseheads, following an impressive showing in the preseason. Upon returning to Halifax, Meier was named team captain.
The skilled winger showcased his size and speed, outlasting a number of more experienced forwards in training camp. Peter DeBoer was impressed with the strength Meier displayed during his stint with the Sharks, and it shouldn’t be too long until he will be on an NHL roster again.
