Stenberg scores twice in 25 seconds in 1st game with Sharks

Ivar Stenberg, the No. 2 pick in the 2026 NHL Draft, scored two goals in just 25 seconds during the third period of San Jose Sharks' 8-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings at the 2026 Rookie Faceoff on Saturday. The 18-year-old Swedish forward, who had 33 points in 43 games with Frölunda in the SHL last season, played alongside fellow top prospects Michael Misa and Igor Chernyshov at Tech CU Arena. Stenberg described his North American debut as 'super fun' while acknowledging he must adapt quickly to the smaller rink size.
