\"Gustav is a talented, versatile forward who plays with speed and a strong hockey sense,\" Sharks general manager Doug Wilson said. \"His track record of strong play and character speak for themselves, and we\'re very excited to add him to our dressing room.\"
Detroit will receive the lower of San Jose\'s or Florida\'s 2019 second-round selections, along with San Jose\'s third-round selection in 2020.
