The San Jose Sharks have inked 21-year-old forward Alexander True to an entry-level deal, the club announced Wednesday.

“Alex really made an impression on us with his skill-set this past season for the San Jose Barracuda,” assistant GM Joe Will said, per the club’s release. “He chose to sign a contract with the Barracuda last season even though he still had junior eligibility, and his development significantly improved under head coach Roy Sommer and his staff.”

True posted 15 goals and 28 points through 68 games for the club’s AHL affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, in 2017-18. The Copenhagen, Denmark native spent three years with the WHL’s Seattle Thunderbirds prior to joining the Sharks organization.
