The San Jose Sharks signed head coach Ryan Warsofsky to a multiyear contract extension on Thursday. Terms were not disclosed.
Warsofsky, 38, is entering his third season behind the bench and remains the NHL’s youngest active head coach. He helped the Sharks improve from 52 points (20-50-12) in 2024-25 to 86 points (39-35-8) last season, the franchise’s best finish since 2018-19.
