3rd year, San Jose Sharks‘ 7th round pick in the 2002 draft (#202 overall), center John McCarthy(7) received his first 3 game call-up to the NHL this season. He had no points. In 44 games with San Jose, most of them in 2010/2011, he has a pair of goals and assists.
With the steady play of some of the other players that have been recalled from their AHL affiliate Worcester Sharks, he’s seemingly falling a bit off the club’s depth chart for the moment.
In all likelihood, he will be signed on for a fourth season in the system as his numbers in the minors indicate there still could be a break through for the 25-year old. He currently leads Worcester in scoring with 11 goals and 16 assists in 37 games.
