Labanc re-signed Monday with the Sharks on a one-year contract.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old was a restricted free agent, which always made it likely that he would return to San Jose in 2019-20. The American winger appeared in all 82 games for the Sharks a season ago, tallying 17 goals and 39 assists while averaging 14:01 of ice time per game. He'll likely fill a top-six role for San Jose during the upcoming campaign.

Labanc received a qualifying offer from the Sharks prior to Tuesday's deadline.

EDGE Analysis

There was zero chance that the Sharks were going to let Labanc hit free agency, as he's already established himself as one of the team's best forwards just three years into his career. The 23-year-old winger will almost certainly be signing a multi-year deal to remain in San Jose in the coming weeks.

Labanc notched a pair of helpers in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blues in Game 3.

EDGE Analysis

Both of Labanc's assists came on goals by center Joe Thornton. Labanc has four tallies and five helpers through 17 games in the playoffs, a solid contribution for the third-line winger who has typically skated 14:59 per game entering Wednesday's contest.

Labanc scored a goal in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Blues in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals.

EDGE Analysis

The winger hadn't registered a point since Game 1 of the second round when he scored a game-winner against the Avalanche. Labanc has four goals and three helpers in 15 games during the playoffs, but four of those points came in Game 7 versus the Golden Knights to close out the first round.

Labanc scored the game-winning goal and went plus-2 in Friday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

It's significantly less than the four-point effort he had in Game 7 to help the Sharks come back against Vegas, but his timely second-period tally was enough to put the hosts ahead for good. Labanc has three goals and three helpers in eight games in the postseason, but his contributions are usually limited to points.

Labanc scored a goal and added three assists, all on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win against the Golden Knights in Game 7.

EDGE Analysis

Labanc had only a single goal over the first six games of the series, but he made an immense impact when Cody Eakin's cross-checking major allowed the Sharks to open the floodgates with the man advantage. It's an encouraging burst of production for the winger, who had a career-high 56 points in 82 contests in the regular season.

Labanc potted a goal in a 4-2 loss to the Canucks on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The goal gives the 23-year-old winger 55 points (16 tallies, 39 helpers) in 80 games this season. Despite skating on the third line, he features on the top power-play unit, where he's collected 20 of his points.

EDGE Analysis

Labanc has a career-high 51 points (14 goals, 37 assists) in 76 games. The 23-year-old has been consistent in March with 10 points in 12 appearances. He's on the third line for now, but he could feature in the top-six in future seasons, making him a player to keep an eye on in dynasty formats.

Labanc picked up an assist on the man advantage as well as five shots in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Labanc has two goals and six assists in nine games in March, giving him 49 points in 73 contests for the season. Eighteen of his points have come on the power play. He's also fired 115 shots on goal and racked up 36 PIM, providing a little additional value outside of scoring.
