He didn&#8217;t stick but got enough attention that he earned a tryout with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/red-wings\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Detroit Red Wings<\/a> the following year. Eventually, he signed a three-year deal with San Jose late in the 2013-14 season.<\/p>\n<p>He spent his first three years as a North-South winger and frequent &#8220;tweener&#8221; &#8211; going from the Sharks to their AHL affiliate. He was then moved to centre, and has found a home on the Sharks&#8217; fourth line. This season he&#8217;s been moved up, getting more than 15 minutes of ice time per game. As a result, he has hit career highs of eight goals and 24 points in 62 games.<\/p>\n<p>The 6&#8242;-2&#8243; 215 pounds Goodrow has made himself more of a physical presence as well. He passed last season&#8217;s career-high of 125 hits in 25 fewer games and did the same in penalty minutes with 80 (PIM) so far this year.<\/p>\n<h3>What This Means for the Future<\/h3>\n<p>In Goodrow, the Tampa Bay Lightning get someone best described as an old-school, &#8220;honest&#8221; player. He&#8217;s earned the extra ice time, improving his possession game and being responsible in all zones. Even in this disastrous year for San Jose, he has maintained a Corsi above 50% with a 52.0 mark. He&#8217;s was the Sharks primary penalty-killing forward on the league&#8217;s most effective unit, so expect him to be used there.<\/p>\n<p>Goodrow&#8217;s new team gets some certainty, too, as he is signed for another year at a very reasonable $925,000 cap hit. Though he did have some injury trouble early in his career, he has played every game since the start of the 2018-19 season. That durability and his defensive responsibility make him a solid acquisition not only for the upcoming playoffs but beyond.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo:<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"z1SldMtRQGF5s_jnuype7g\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1199749797\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'z1SldMtRQGF5s_jnuype7g',sig:'QBkGS5dTtN-ym1r8xJy2-XlZYZw8XRyqkBZrEElbFe4=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1199749797',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Jose Sharks continue reshaping their team, moving Barclay Goodrow today.
