Merkley tore up the OHL in 2019-20, accumulating 15 goals and 76 points for the London Knights. The 20-year-old right-shot blueliner will likely compete for a third-pairing job during the Sharks' training camp, but he'll need to outplay Jacob Middleton to get the roster spot. It's entirely possible Merkley will require a year or two of seasoning in the AHL, but dynasty managers will want to keep an eye on his progress regardless of where he plays. The first-round pick from 2018 is on the fast track to the NHL and should make a big impact when he can stay with the big club full time.
