Kunin (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's game against Los Angeles and Sunday's contest versus Calgary, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin sustained the injury during Tuesday's game against Arizona. He has five goals and 13 points in 31 contests this season. Sharks coach David Quinn thinks Kunin might end up being put on the injured reserve list.

Kunin (undisclosed) will not return to Tuesday's game versus the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin took just one shift in the game prior to his exit, and the Sharks provided no details on the reason. If he has to miss additional time, Alexander Barabanov (lower body) or C.J. Suess would be options to take his place in the lineup.

Kunin posted an assist and three hits in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin snapped a three-game point drought when he set up Nick Bonino's first-period marker. Despite playing on the Sharks' third line, Kunin has emerged as a key depth scorer with 13 points in 28 contests. He's added 51 shots on net, 60 hits, 27 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-11 rating -- his all-around production may be enough to help managers in deeper fantasy formats.

Kunin scored twice on four shots, went plus-2, logged two hits and added two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin had the Sharks' first and third goals, the latter earning them a point in the standings since it forced overtime. He's picked up three goals and three helpers over his last seven outings, though he's gotten on the scoresheet in just three of those contests. The 24-year-old is up to five tallies, 12 points, 49 shots on net, 30 PIM, 52 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating in 24 contests while serving in a middle-six role.

Kunin notched three assists, three blocked shots, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-1 win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin had a helper in every period of the Sharks' big win. He set up Noah Gregor and Tomas Hertl (on the power play) before adding a secondary helper on Logan Couture's empty-netter. Kunin hadn't produced a multi-point effort this year prior to Monday. He's at three goals, seven assists, 42 shots on net, 43 hits, 21 blocked shots, 34 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 21 appearances.

Kunin scored a goal on two shots, levied five hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin redirected an Erik Karlsson shot in for the Sharks' first goal of the game. Through seven games in November, Kunin has been limited to two tallies, though he's also picked up 22 PIM and 14 hits while providing grit from the third line. The 24-year-old forward is up to seven points, 40 hits, 32 PIM, 38 shots on net and a minus-11 rating in 18 outings overall.

Kunin scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin hadn't scored since the second game of the season before tallying in the second period Saturday. His longest point drought this season is three games, but his offense has been rather unimpressive in his first year with the Sharks. The 24-year-old has two goals, four assists, 31 shots on net, 32 hits, 30 PIM, 16 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating. He's played on the third line lately, and that's a role that seems best suited to his skill set.

Kunin logged an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin helped out on Nico Sturm's empty-net tally in the third period. Through eight contests, Kunin has been as advertised for the Sharks -- he has a goal, three assists, 17 hits, 10 PIM and 19 shots on net with a minus-5 rating. He's been a solid supporting member of the top six with a physical edge. As long as he doesn't slip down the lineup, Kunin could be useful in fantasy formats that don't feature plus-minus as a category.

Kunin registered an assist, three hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin played on the top line and helped out on Tomas Hertl's first-period tally. The assist was Kunin's first point as a Shark after he produced 13 goals, nine helpers, 223 hits, 99 PIM and 125 shots on goal in 82 games with the Predators last season. He's seeing top-line minutes to begin 2022-23 -- he led all Sharks forwards with 21:23 of ice time Friday -- but he may just be keeping a seat warm for Alexander Barabanov (lower body), who is not with San Jose in Prague. Kunin's playing style is more suited to a bottom-six role, though it's possible the 24-year-old could have a breakout in a more advanced position.

Kunin signed a two-year, $5.5 million deal with the Sharks on Monday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 15th overall pick by the Wild in 2016, Kunin spent the last two seasons in Nashville, where he produced 41 points in 120 games while averaging just under 14 minutes of ice time. He figures to be a staple in the Sharks' bottom six and provide plenty of physicality after racking up 223 hits last year.
