SAN JOSE – San Jose Sharks prospect Quentin Musty has requested a trade from the Ontario Hockey League’s Sudbury Wolves, according to a report.
Musty, who was selected 26th overall by the Sharks in 2023, has been at his home in Hamberg, N.Y., since Tuesday, awaiting a deal, according to former Sportsnet host Jeff Marek. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound Musty attended Sharks training camp last month but was returned to Sudbury on Sept. 30.
It was not immediately clear why Musty requested a trade. A message left with his representative was not immediately returned.
Musty, 19, is entering his fourth year in the OHL, having spent the past three with the Wolves. Last season in Sudbury, Musty had 102 points in 53 regular season games and 10 points in eight playoff games.
Musty played in two preseason games with the Sharks last month but did not have a point. The Sharks felt at the time that Musty needed to continue to work on the details of his game.
Sudbury has already played four games this season and is 3-1. The Wolves’ most recent game was Saturday, a 2-1 loss to the Barrie Colts.
