Overview
- Eric Comrie signed a two-year, $2.3 million contract with the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday, July 1, 2026.
- Winnipeg’s earlier signing of Stuart Skinner on July 1 cleared space in the Jets’ plans and paved the way for Comrie’s departure.
- Reports paint Comrie’s 2025–26 season in mixed terms: Daily Faceoff lists a 12-11-1 record, .890 save percentage and -0.7 goals saved above expected in 25 games, while other outlets noted a +2.2 GSAx or a difficult 2-7-1 stretch with a .874 SV% and -7.02 GSAx.
- Comrie is expected to compete with Yaroslav Askarov and Alex Nedeljkovic for San Jose starts, leaving the team’s primary netminder role unsettled heading into training camp.
- The signing was one piece of a larger July 1 roster push by GM Mike Grier that included deals for Mason Marchment, Jacob Trouba and a trade for Darnell Nurse, reflecting San Jose’s effort to add experience and depth after a sizable improvement last season.
