San Jose Sharks sign Scott Harrington to one-year contract
The Pittsburgh Penguins selected Harrington in the second round of the 2011 NHL Draft. He spent the first few seasons of his professional hockey career in the Penguins organization before being sent to the Toronto Maple Leafs as part of the Phil Kessel trade in 2015.
Harrington spent just one season in Toronto shuttling between the NHL and AHL before being traded for the second time in two summers, this time to the Columbus Blue Jackets.After that whirlwind of movement, Harrington finally managed to settle down in Columbus for the long run. He spent parts of six seasons with the Blue Jackets, appearing in 199 NHL games with the club .
During the 2021–22 season, Harrington got into just seven NHL games with Columbus and spent most of the year with the Cleveland Monsters of the American Hockey League. The 6’2″ left-handed defender scored three goals and seven points in 50 AHL contests with Cleveland last year. In 210 career NHL games over parts of eight regular seasons with Pittsburgh, Toronto, and Columbus, Harrington has scored seven goals and 38 points. He’ll look to carve out a full-time role this season on a Sharks blueline that already features Erik Karlsson, Marc-Edouard Vlasic, Mario Ferraro, Radim Simek, Markus Nutivaara, Matt Benning, and Jaycob Megna.
