Barabanov will report to AHL San Jose once he completes his mandatory quarantine, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barabanov will begin his Sharks tenure in the minors, but he could earn a quick promotion to the big club if he starts out hot with AHL San Jose. The 26-year-old winger picked up one helper in 13 appearances with the Maple Leafs before being traded to the Sharks on Monday.

The Sharks acquired Barabonov via trade from Toronto for Antti Suomela on Monday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his first NHL season, Barabonov posted just one point -- an assist -- and 11 shots on net across 13 games for the Maple Leafs. The 26-year-old has demonstrated his upside in the AHL this year, albeit in a small sample, putting up two goals and three assists across just two games. This change of scenery could allow Barabanov to take on a larger role with his new team.

Barabanov was promoted to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game versus the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Barabanov played in a bottom-six role in the 6-4 win over the Senators. The 26-year-old winger shouldn't be expected to see much more than that kind of usage this season.

Barabanov was designated for the taxi squad Thursday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Barabanov suited up in Wednesday's win over the Canadiens, marking his first appearance since March 1. The 26-year-old took advantage of the opportunity, notching his first career point -- an assist -- in the third period. If William Nylander stays in COVID-19 protocol, Barabanov figures to stay in the lineup in the short term.
